Cold store and freezer doors in Arbroath

In short

Is your freezer door icing up or failing to seal at your Arbroath site? We replace worn cold store doors with insulated sliding or hinged doors, heated frames and pressure relief where needed.

Town: Arbroath
Postcode district: DD11
Area: Angus and Dundee
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Heated frames. Freezer frames and thresholds are kept just warm enough that ice cannot form on the seals.
Electric sliding. Motorised sliding doors with pull cords, radar or loops and safety edges.
Tight seals. The leaf pulls in against its gaskets on closing so cold air stays where it belongs.
Hygienic finishes. Plastisol-coated steel, stainless steel or GRP for food and pharmaceutical use.
Inside release. Every door can be opened from inside without a key, even if locked from outside.

Examples of work we can quote for

Renewing worn gaskets and the frame heater on a chiller door that no longer seals properly.
Installing a high-speed freezer door in front of an existing sliding cold store door on a busy picking route.
Motorising a heavy manual cold store door with pull-cord activation, a safety edge on the closing leaf and photocells.

Safety law for industrial doors in Scotland

Industrial doors in Arbroath are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.

Access, phasing and timing

Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.

Frequently asked questions

Do you supply cold store doors for food businesses in Angus and Dundee?

Yes. We supply and fit cold store doors with hygienic finishes for food producers, processors, distributors and commercial kitchens across Angus and Dundee, and we talk through your hygiene, cleaning and audit requirements at the survey before recommending a finish.

Can our cold store door in Arbroath be made electric?

Often, yes, if the leaf and track are sound, or with a new electric sliding door. Powered cold store doors need safety edges and photocells and a drive suited to the temperature.

Can you replace a freezer door at our Arbroath site without losing stock?

We plan the change with you and your refrigeration engineer. Many doors can be swapped in a day, sometimes with stock moved or the plant set back temporarily, so the room returns to temperature quickly.
