What to specify
- Tight seals. Compressible gaskets pressed against the frame as the door closes.
- Heated frames. Freezer frames and thresholds are kept just warm enough that ice cannot form on the seals.
- 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.
- Electric sliding. Powered sliding doors that open on demand and close automatically, with full safety devices.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Installing a high-speed freezer door in front of an existing sliding cold store door on a busy picking route.
- 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 Andover?
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
Sites in and around Andover vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.

Questions from businesses in Andover
Can our cold store door in Andover be made electric?
Often, yes, if the leaf and track are sound, or with a new electric sliding door. Powered cold store doors need safety edges and photocells and a drive suited to the temperature.
What safety release do cold store doors in Andover 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.
Do you supply cold store doors for food businesses in Hampshire?
Yes. We supply and fit cold store doors with hygienic finishes for food producers, processors, distributors and commercial kitchens across Hampshire, and we talk through your hygiene, cleaning and audit requirements at the survey before recommending a finish.
