Cold store and freezer doors in Kent

Quick answer

Area: Kent
Nation: England
Main town: Maidstone
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Electric sliding. Powered sliding doors that open on demand and close automatically, with full safety devices.
Thick insulation. Insulation thickness is chosen for your operating temperature, with heavier leaves for freezers.
Pressure relief. Relief valves to balance pressure after the door closes or during defrost.
Impact protection. Protection around the opening helps stop forklifts damaging expensive insulated leaves.
Tight seals. The leaf pulls in against its gaskets on closing so cold air stays where it belongs.

Examples of work we can quote for

Adding a heated pressure relief valve to a freezer room where suction makes the door hard to open once it closes.
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.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Kent 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.

Access, phasing and timing

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.
