What to specify
- Impact protection. Kick plates, buffers and bollards to keep trucks off leaves and frames.
- Pressure relief. We check pressure relief so a tightly sealed room does not suck the door shut.
- Hygienic finishes. Plastisol-coated steel, stainless steel or GRP for food and pharmaceutical use.
- Inside release. An emergency release on the inside face so nobody can be shut in.
- Tight seals. The leaf pulls in against its gaskets on closing so cold air stays where it belongs.
Typical scopes of work
- Protecting new cold store door frames with steel buffers and bollards on a busy forklift route.
- Motorising a heavy manual cold store door with pull-cord activation, a safety edge on the closing leaf and photocells.
- Adding a heated pressure relief valve to a freezer room where suction makes the door hard to open once it closes.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Newtownards?
In Northern Ireland, the business in control of the premises must keep doors and gates safe under the Workplace Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1993 and maintain work equipment under PUWER (Northern Ireland) 1999, with HSENI as the regulator. The installer who supplies or motorises a door hands over the conformity documents and user instructions; CE marking remains the relevant mark for machinery here.
Access, phasing and timing
Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Cold store and freezer doors in Newtownards: your questions
Do you repair cold store doors in Newtownards?
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.
Can our cold store door in Newtownards 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.
Do you supply cold store doors for food businesses in County Down?
Yes. We supply and fit cold store doors with hygienic finishes for food producers, processors, distributors and commercial kitchens across County Down, and we talk through your hygiene, cleaning and audit requirements at the survey before recommending a finish.
