What we fit in Failsworth

Thick insulation. Foam-filled leaves sized to the room temperature, from chillers to freezers.
Impact protection. Protection around the opening helps stop forklifts damaging expensive insulated leaves.
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.
Inside release. An emergency release on the inside face so nobody can be shut in.

Examples of work we can quote for

Motorising a heavy manual cold store door with pull-cord activation, a safety edge on the closing leaf and photocells.
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.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Failsworth?

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.

Planning the work around your site

For busy sites in Greater Manchester the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.
