Cold store and freezer doors in Welshpool

In short

Is your freezer door icing up or failing to seal at your Welshpool site? We replace worn cold store doors with insulated sliding or hinged doors, heated frames and pressure relief where needed.

Town: Welshpool
Postcode district: SY21
Area: Powys
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Heated frames. Freezer frames and thresholds are kept just warm enough that ice cannot form on the seals.
Pressure relief. Relief valves to balance pressure after the door closes or during defrost.
Thick insulation. Insulation thickness is chosen for your operating temperature, with heavier leaves for freezers.
Impact protection. Protection around the opening helps stop forklifts damaging expensive insulated leaves.
Electric sliding. Powered sliding doors that open on demand and close automatically, with full safety devices.

What this work can involve

Motorising a heavy manual cold store door with pull-cord activation, a safety edge on the closing leaf and photocells.
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.

Powered door rules that apply in Welshpool

Welshpool is in Wales, 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.

Keeping your site running during the work

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.

Your questions about cold store and freezer doors

Why is our cold room door in Welshpool 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.

Can our cold store door in Welshpool 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.

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

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