Options for cold store and freezer doors in Argyll and Bute

- Heated frames. Heater cables in freezer door frames stop ice welding the seals shut.
- Electric sliding. Motorised sliding doors with pull cords, radar or loops and safety edges.

Powered door rules that apply in Argyll and Bute
Argyll and Bute is in Scotland, where powered industrial doors fall under Great Britain's health and safety law. Whoever makes a door powered — including converting a manual door — usually takes on the manufacturer's duties under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008: risk assessment, technical file, conformity marking and a Declaration of Conformity. Once it is in use, the employer or occupier must keep it safe under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.

Frequently asked questions
Can our cold store door in Argyll and Bute 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.
Why is our cold room door in Argyll and Bute 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.
