- Salisbury
- Postcode district
- SP1
- Area
- Wiltshire
- Survey
- Free for new installations
What to specify
- Thick insulation. Foam-filled leaves sized to the room temperature, from chillers to 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.
- Pressure relief. We check pressure relief so a tightly sealed room does not suck the door shut.
- Inside release. An emergency release on the inside face so nobody can be shut in.
What this work can involve
- Fitting a hinged chiller door with a stainless steel finish to a walk-in cold room in a commercial kitchen.
- 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.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Salisbury are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.
Keeping your site running during the work
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.

Frequently asked questions
Do you repair cold store doors in Salisbury?
Yes. We replace gaskets, frame heaters, rollers, tracks, releases and drives on most makes. Repair visits are chargeable, and we quote before larger repairs or recommend replacement when the leaf itself has failed.
What safety release do cold store doors in Salisbury 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 Salisbury 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.
