What we fit in East Kilbride

Tight seals. The leaf pulls in against its gaskets on closing so cold air stays where it belongs.
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.
Thick insulation. Insulation thickness is chosen for your operating temperature, with heavier leaves for freezers.
Inside release. Every door can be opened from inside without a key, even if locked from outside.

What this work can involve

Fitting freezer-grade PVC strip curtains behind cold store doors that stand open during loading.
Motorising a heavy manual cold store door with pull-cord activation, a safety edge on the closing leaf and photocells.
Fitting a hinged chiller door with a stainless steel finish to a walk-in cold room in a commercial kitchen.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in East Kilbride?

In Scotland, 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 East Kilbride

Do you supply cold store doors for food businesses in Lanarkshire?

Yes. We supply and fit cold store doors with hygienic finishes for food producers, processors, distributors and commercial kitchens across Lanarkshire, and we talk through your hygiene, cleaning and audit requirements at the survey before recommending a finish.

Do you repair cold store doors in East Kilbride?

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 East Kilbride 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.
