What to specify
- Heated frames. Freezer frames and thresholds are kept just warm enough that ice cannot form on the seals.
- Tight seals. Compressible gaskets pressed against the frame as the door closes.
- Impact protection. Kick plates, buffers and bollards to keep trucks off leaves and frames.
- Hygienic finishes. Plastisol-coated steel, stainless steel or GRP for food and pharmaceutical use.
- Pressure relief. Relief valves to balance pressure after the door closes or during defrost.
Jobs we can carry out
- 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.
- Fitting freezer-grade PVC strip curtains behind cold store doors that stand open during loading.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Carmarthen?
In Wales, 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.
Planning the work around your site
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 Carmarthen: your questions
Why is our cold room door in Carmarthen 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 Dyfed?
Yes. We supply and fit cold store doors with hygienic finishes for food producers, processors, distributors and commercial kitchens across Dyfed, 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 Carmarthen 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.
