What to specify
- Tight seals. Compressible gaskets pressed against the frame as the door closes.
- Inside release. An emergency release on the inside face so nobody can be shut in.
- Electric sliding. Motorised sliding doors with pull cords, radar or loops and safety edges.
- Impact protection. Protection around the opening helps stop forklifts damaging expensive insulated leaves.
- Heated frames. Heater cables in freezer door frames stop ice welding the seals shut.
Typical scopes of work
- Protecting new cold store door frames with steel buffers and bollards on a busy forklift route.
- 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.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Market Harborough?
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.
Planning the work around your site
For busy sites in Leicestershire the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

Frequently asked questions
Can our cold store door in Market Harborough 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.
Can you replace a freezer door at our Market Harborough 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 supply cold store doors for food businesses in Leicestershire?
Yes. We supply and fit cold store doors with hygienic finishes for food producers, processors, distributors and commercial kitchens across Leicestershire, and we talk through your hygiene, cleaning and audit requirements at the survey before recommending a finish.
