What we fit in Newtownabbey

Heated frames. Heater cables in freezer door frames stop ice welding the seals shut.
Inside release. Every door can be opened from inside without a key, even if locked from outside.
Hygienic finishes. Plastisol-coated steel, stainless steel or GRP for food and pharmaceutical use.
Tight seals. Compressible gaskets pressed against the frame as the door closes.
Pressure relief. We check pressure relief so a tightly sealed room does not suck the door shut.

Powered door rules in Northern Ireland

Newtownabbey is in Northern Ireland, where workplace safety is regulated by HSENI under the Health and Safety at Work (Northern Ireland) Order 1978. The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1993 and PUWER (Northern Ireland) 1999 require occupiers to keep powered doors safe and maintained.

Access, phasing and timing

For busy sites in County Antrim the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

Your questions about cold store and freezer doors

Can you replace a freezer door at our Newtownabbey 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.

Do you repair cold store doors in Newtownabbey?

Yes. We replace gaskets, frame heaters, rollers, tracks, releases and drives on most makes. Repair visits are chargeable, and we quote before larger repairs or recommend replacement when the leaf itself has failed.

Why is our cold room door in Newtownabbey 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.
