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. Compressible gaskets pressed against the frame as the door closes.
- Electric sliding. Powered sliding doors that open on demand and close automatically, with full safety devices.
- Impact protection. Kick plates, buffers and bollards to keep trucks off leaves and frames.
Typical scopes of work
- 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.
- Protecting new cold store door frames with steel buffers and bollards on a busy forklift route.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Winchester 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.
How the work is organised
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Your questions about cold store and freezer doors
Can you replace a freezer door at our Winchester 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.
Do you repair cold store doors in Winchester?
Yes. We replace gaskets, frame heaters, rollers, tracks, releases and drives on most makes. Repair visits are chargeable, and we quote before larger repairs or recommend replacement when the leaf itself has failed.
Why is our cold room door in Winchester 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.
