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

- Postcode district

- Area
- Shropshire
- Survey
- Free for new installations
What to specify
- Tight seals. Compressible gaskets pressed against the frame as the door closes.
- Heated frames. Heater cables in freezer door frames stop ice welding the seals shut.
- Pressure relief. Relief valves to balance pressure after the door closes or during defrost.
- Hygienic finishes. Plastisol-coated steel, stainless steel or GRP for food and pharmaceutical use.
- Thick insulation. Insulation thickness is chosen for your operating temperature, with heavier leaves for freezers.
Examples of work we can quote for
- 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.
- Fitting freezer-grade PVC strip curtains behind cold store doors that stand open during loading.
Powered door rules that apply in Telford
Telford 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.
Access, phasing and timing
For busy sites in Shropshire 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.

Cold store and freezer doors in Telford: your questions
Can our cold store door in Telford 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.
Why is our cold room door in Telford 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.
Do you supply cold store doors for food businesses in Shropshire?
Yes. We supply and fit cold store doors with hygienic finishes for food producers, processors, distributors and commercial kitchens across Shropshire, and we talk through your hygiene, cleaning and audit requirements at the survey before recommending a finish.
