What to specify
- Pressure relief. Relief valves to balance pressure after the door closes or during defrost.
- Impact protection. Kick plates, buffers and bollards to keep trucks off leaves and frames.
- Hygienic finishes. Plastisol-coated steel, stainless steel or GRP for food and pharmaceutical use.
- Thick insulation. Insulation thickness is chosen for your operating temperature, with heavier leaves for freezers.
- Inside release. An emergency release on the inside face so nobody can be shut in.
What this work can involve
- Installing a high-speed freezer door in front of an existing sliding cold store door on a busy picking route.
- Fitting a hinged chiller door with a stainless steel finish to a walk-in cold room in a commercial kitchen.
- 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 Oldham?
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
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.

Questions from businesses in Oldham
How much does a cold store or freezer door cost in Oldham?
Our guide price for a sliding cold store or freezer door is £6,495 to £17,995 ex VAT, supplied and fitted. Size, temperature, insulation and electric operation set the final price, confirmed in writing after a free survey in Oldham.
Can you replace a freezer door at our Oldham site without losing stock?
We plan the change with you and your refrigeration engineer. Many doors can be swapped in a day, sometimes with stock moved or the plant set back temporarily, so the room returns to temperature quickly.
Why is our cold room door in Oldham 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.
