Town: Dundee
Postcode district: DD1
Area: Angus and Dundee
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Impact protection. Kick plates, buffers and bollards to keep trucks off leaves and frames.
Inside release. An emergency release on the inside face so nobody can be shut in.
Electric sliding. Motorised sliding doors with pull cords, radar or loops and safety edges.
Heated frames. Freezer frames and thresholds are kept just warm enough that ice cannot form on the seals.
Thick insulation. Foam-filled leaves sized to the room temperature, from chillers to freezers.

Jobs we can carry out

Installing a high-speed freezer door in front of an existing sliding cold store door on a busy picking route.
Protecting new cold store door frames with steel buffers and bollards on a busy forklift route.
Fitting a hinged chiller door with a stainless steel finish to a walk-in cold room in a commercial kitchen.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Dundee?

In Scotland, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.

Access, phasing and timing

Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.

Questions from businesses in Dundee

Why is our cold room door in Dundee hard to open after it closes?

Usually negative pressure: air inside cools and contracts once the door seals. A correctly sized pressure relief valve, heated on freezers, solves this. We check for one on survey and can fit it with a new door.

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.

What safety release do cold store doors in Dundee need?

Every cold store door should open from inside without a key or tool, even when locked from outside. We fit a clearly marked inside release and can add an alarm button connected to a monitored panel.
