What we fit in March
- Inside release. Every door can be opened from inside without a key, even if locked from outside.
- Pressure relief. We check pressure relief so a tightly sealed room does not suck the door shut.
- Electric sliding. Powered sliding doors that open on demand and close automatically, with full safety devices.
- 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.
Typical scopes of work
- Fitting freezer-grade PVC strip curtains behind cold store doors that stand open during loading.
- Fitting a hinged chiller door with a stainless steel finish to a walk-in cold room in a commercial kitchen.
- Motorising a heavy manual cold store door with pull-cord activation, a safety edge on the closing leaf and photocells.
Powered door rules that apply in March
March is in England, 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.
How the work is organised
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Your questions about cold store and freezer doors
Why is our cold room door in March 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 repair cold store doors in March?
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.
Do you supply cold store doors for food businesses in Cambridgeshire?
Yes. We supply and fit cold store doors with hygienic finishes for food producers, processors, distributors and commercial kitchens across Cambridgeshire, and we talk through your hygiene, cleaning and audit requirements at the survey before recommending a finish.
