Area: Greater Manchester
Nation: England
Main town: Manchester
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Thick insulation. Insulation thickness is chosen for your operating temperature, with heavier leaves for freezers.
Heated frames. Freezer frames and thresholds are kept just warm enough that ice cannot form on the seals.
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.
Pressure relief. We check pressure relief so a tightly sealed room does not suck the door shut.

Examples of work we can quote for

Replacing an iced-up sliding freezer door with a new insulated door, heated frame and heated threshold.
Protecting new cold store door frames with steel buffers and bollards on a busy forklift route.
Fitting a hinged chiller door with a stainless steel finish to a walk-in cold room in a commercial kitchen.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Greater Manchester 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.

Access, phasing and timing

If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.
