Options that matter on site
- Pressure relief. We check pressure relief so a tightly sealed room does not suck the door shut.
- Thick insulation. Insulation thickness is chosen for your operating temperature, with heavier leaves for freezers.
- Electric sliding. Powered sliding doors that open on demand and close automatically, with full safety devices.
- Tight seals. Compressible gaskets pressed against the frame as the door closes.
- Inside release. Every door can be opened from inside without a key, even if locked from outside.
Typical scopes of work
- Renewing worn gaskets and the frame heater on a chiller door that no longer seals properly.
- Adding a heated pressure relief valve to a freezer room where suction makes the door hard to open once it closes.
- Fitting freezer-grade PVC strip curtains behind cold store doors that stand open during loading.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Bridgwater?
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.
Access, phasing and timing
Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.

Frequently asked questions
What safety release do cold store doors in Bridgwater need?
Every cold store door should open from inside without a key or tool, even when locked from outside. We fit a clearly marked inside release and can add an alarm button connected to a monitored panel.
Can you replace a freezer door at our Bridgwater 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.
Can our cold store door in Bridgwater 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.
