Cold Room Door Types and Their Uses

Cold room doors are used to preserve chilled and frozen products through highly efficient thermal insulation that prevents heat leakage.

They are manufactured from polyurethane material with a density up to 40 kg/m3 to provide strong durability and excellent insulation capability.

Freezer room doors are equipped with special heaters to prevent ice formation (or to prevent freezing), and they are available in multiple sizes and types to meet customer needs with the best efficiency.

are specialized doors designed for chiller and freezer rooms. They rely on strong hinges that can withstand the weight and allow the door to open easily while ensuring good thermal insulation. They are usually equipped with thermal sealsto prevent cold air leakage and maintain the required temperature inside the room.

Hinged Doors

Features :

- Excellent Thermal Insulation: High-quality insulation layers prevent cold air leakage and maintain energy efficiency.

- Strong Hinges: Withstand continuous opening and closing and bear the weight of the heavy door.

- Ease of Operation: Can be opened manually or via an automatic system.

- Leak-Proof Seal: Equipped with special gaskets on the frame to prevent the entry of air or moisture.

- Durability: Withstands low temperatures and continuous exposure to humidity.

- Safety Options: Such as safety releases (or safety latches) for opening from the inside, and warning signals upon closing.

- Design Flexibility: Can be manufactured in different sizes and shapes to suit project needs.

Uses :

- Cold Rooms and Food Industries: To preserve products from damage due to heat.

- Warehouses: Specifically for cold storage rooms.

- Hospitals and Laboratories: To store samples and medications at a specific temperature.

- Factories: Especially in industries that require strict temperature control.

- Restaurants and Hotels: To store foodstuff and beverages.

Optional / Custom-Requested Features

- Built-in Heaters (Heating Cables): To prevent freezing around the door frame.

- Plastic or Air Curtains: To maintain the temperature during frequent use.

- Special Locks: To protect goods inside the cold room.

- Emergency Releases (or Safety Latches): For opening the door from the inside in case of an emergency.

Sliding Doors

Sliding Doors are considered the ideal solution for cold rooms that have limited space or contain narrow corridors, as the sliding mechanism reduces the need for additional opening space unlike hinged doors.

Types of control:

- Manual: Easy to use and practical for locations that do not require continuous and heavy traffic (or high volume).

- Electric (Automated): Provides speed and ease of operation, especially in large warehouses or factories with fast-paced movement (or high-speed traffic).

Main Features :

- Equipped with a safety handle (or safety release) for opening from the inside to ensure safety, even in emergencies.

- Contains an external closing key (or lock) to control entry and exit.

- Fitted with special heaters to prevent ice formation when the door is used in freezer rooms.

- Can be supplied with plastic strip curtains to reduce cold loss when open.

- Air curtains can also be installed upon customer request to increase efficiency and reduce the entry of outside air.

Extra Features :

- Ideal for areas with high traffic density.

- Provide excellent insulation and ease of use.

- Can be manufactured in different sizes and designs according to customer requirements.

Swing Doors (or Impact Doors) are considered a practical option in chiller and freezer rooms, especially in locations that experience frequent traffic of people or carts. They are characterized by their ability to open easily both inward and outward without the need to use hands, making them ideal for fast-paced work environments such as restaurants, factories, and warehouses.

Single and double swing doors

Types :

- Single Swing Doors: Consist of a single leaf (or panel), and are typically used in narrow corridors or small doorways.

- Double Swing Doors: Consist of two opposing leaves (or panels), and are used in wider passages or areas that require high-volume traffic.

Main Features :

- Easy opening and closing thanks to automatic hinges that return the door to its closed position after passage.

- Allows for quick passage even when carrying tools or pushing carts.

- Contain insulating gaskets (or seals) that help reduce cold air leakage.

- Can be equipped with transparent windows to provide visibility and prevent collisions during passage.

- Made from durable materials that can withstand continuous use.

Uses :

- Ideal for locations with continuous traffic (or continuous flow of movement).

- Suitable for corridors and doorways that require speed of passage (or quick transit).

- Used in various sectors such as the food industries, central kitchens, warehouses, and supermarkets.
