Options for cold store and freezer doors in Bury St Edmunds

Inside release. An emergency release on the inside face so nobody can be shut in.
Electric sliding. Powered sliding doors that open on demand and close automatically, with full safety devices.
Thick insulation. Insulation thickness is chosen for your operating temperature, with heavier leaves for freezers.
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.

What this work can involve

Replacing an iced-up sliding freezer door with a new insulated door, heated frame and heated threshold.
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.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Bury St Edmunds?

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.

Keeping your site running during the work

If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.

Cold store and freezer doors in Bury St Edmunds: your questions

What safety release do cold store doors in Bury St Edmunds 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.

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

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

Can you replace a freezer door at our Bury St Edmunds 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.
