Options that matter on site
- Inside release. An emergency release on the inside face so nobody can be shut in.
- Tight seals. The leaf pulls in against its gaskets on closing so cold air stays where it belongs.
- Heated frames. Heater cables in freezer door frames stop ice welding the seals shut.
- Impact protection. Kick plates, buffers and bollards to keep trucks off leaves and frames.
- Pressure relief. We check pressure relief so a tightly sealed room does not suck the door shut.
What this work can involve
- Fitting freezer-grade PVC strip curtains behind cold store doors that stand open during loading.
- Replacing an iced-up sliding freezer door with a new insulated door, heated frame and heated threshold.
- Motorising a heavy manual cold store door with pull-cord activation, a safety edge on the closing leaf and photocells.
Powered door rules that apply in Hawick
Hawick is in Scotland, 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.
Access, phasing and timing
