What to specify
- 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.
- Impact protection. Protection around the opening helps stop forklifts damaging expensive insulated leaves.
- Hygienic finishes. Smooth, cleanable finishes chosen to meet your hygiene and audit standards.
- Inside release. Every door can be opened from inside without a key, even if locked from outside.
Jobs we can carry out
- 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.
- Adding a heated pressure relief valve to a freezer room where suction makes the door hard to open once it closes.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Hammersmith are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.
How the work is organised
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.

Guide prices for supply and installation unless stated, excluding VAT, which is added at the current rate where it applies. Your fixed price is confirmed in writing after a survey, before any work starts.
Your questions about cold store and freezer doors
Do you repair cold store doors in Hammersmith?
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.
Why is our cold room door in Hammersmith 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.
What safety release do cold store doors in Hammersmith 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.
