Doors for Cold Storage and Chilled Facilities

In chilled and frozen facilities the door is part of the thermal envelope. Every second an opening stands open costs refrigeration energy and risks temperature excursion, so specification focuses on sealing and speed.

FAQs

Cold Storage & Chilled Facilities — frequently asked

Why use a high speed door in a cold store?

Open time is the main source of thermal loss. A rapid roll door reduces the seconds an opening stands open on every cycle, which adds up quickly at high traffic volumes.

Do dock shelters help with temperature control?

Yes. Sealing the gap between the trailer and the building keeps conditioned air inside while the bay is being loaded.
