Options for cold store and freezer doors in Rawtenstall
- Pressure relief. We check pressure relief so a tightly sealed room does not suck the door shut.
- Hygienic finishes. Smooth, cleanable finishes chosen to meet your hygiene and audit standards.
- Electric sliding. Powered sliding doors that open on demand and close automatically, with full safety devices.
- Inside release. Every door can be opened from inside without a key, even if locked from outside.
- Impact protection. Protection around the opening helps stop forklifts damaging expensive insulated leaves.
What this work can involve
- Replacing an iced-up sliding freezer door with a new insulated door, heated frame and heated threshold.
- Adding a heated pressure relief valve to a freezer room where suction makes the door hard to open once it closes.
- Installing a high-speed freezer door in front of an existing sliding cold store door on a busy picking route.
Powered door rules that apply in Rawtenstall
Rawtenstall is in England, where powered industrial doors fall under Great Britain's health and safety law. Whoever makes a door powered — including converting a manual door — usually takes on the manufacturer's duties under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008: risk assessment, technical file, conformity marking and a Declaration of Conformity. Once it is in use, the employer or occupier must keep it safe under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.
Planning the work around your site
Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.
