Options for cold store and freezer doors in Essex

Hygienic finishes. Smooth, cleanable finishes chosen to meet your hygiene and audit standards.
Heated frames. Freezer frames and thresholds are kept just warm enough that ice cannot form on the seals.
Electric sliding. Powered sliding doors that open on demand and close automatically, with full safety devices.
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.

What this work can involve

Replacing an iced-up sliding freezer door with a new insulated door, heated frame and heated threshold.
Renewing worn gaskets and the frame heater on a chiller door that no longer seals properly.
Adding a heated pressure relief valve to a freezer room where suction makes the door hard to open once it closes.

Powered door rules that apply in Essex

Essex 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.

Keeping your site running during the work

Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.
