What to specify
- Pressure relief. Relief valves to balance pressure after the door closes or during defrost.
- 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.
- Hygienic finishes. Smooth, cleanable finishes chosen to meet your hygiene and audit standards.
- Thick insulation. Foam-filled leaves sized to the room temperature, from chillers to freezers.
Jobs we can carry out
- Adding a heated pressure relief valve to a freezer room where suction makes the door hard to open once it closes.
- Renewing worn gaskets and the frame heater on a chiller door that no longer seals properly.
- Motorising a heavy manual cold store door with pull-cord activation, a safety edge on the closing leaf and photocells.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Chadderton?
In England, 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.
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.
