Options for cold store and freezer doors in Lichfield
- 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.
- Tight seals. The leaf pulls in against its gaskets on closing so cold air stays where it belongs.
- 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.
Jobs we can carry out
- Renewing worn gaskets and the frame heater on a chiller door that no longer seals properly.
- Installing a high-speed freezer door in front of an existing sliding cold store door on a busy picking route.
- Fitting a hinged chiller door with a stainless steel finish to a walk-in cold room in a commercial kitchen.
Powered door rules that apply in Lichfield
Lichfield 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
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.

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.
