Your walk-in freezer contains many components that must be inspected regularly. If something goes wrong with any component, the system is no longer going to be energy efficient. It’ll be harder for the equipment to keep the items cool. As a result, there will be a higher risk that a component is going to malfunction. You’ll also spend more powering the equipment because it is working overtime. Learn more about the different types of doors on walk-in units.

Sliding Doors
First, you will find sliding doors. It is common to find slide doors on
walk-in coolers and freezers. The door will slide one way or the other. When inspecting your refrigeration equipment, make sure the door slides closed. It must be completely closed to avoid air leaks. If the door doesn’t completely close, air will escape and the system will use more energy to keep the room cold. You’ll risk losing ingredients and paying out of pocket to replace these items. The cost will be very expensive. More pressure will be placed on the components so there will be a higher risk that something is going to break. Let us inspect your slide doors to make sure everything is okay.
Swinging Doors
Your walk-in freezer may feature swing doors. Although they serve the same purpose, swing doors are different. They feature different components and swing open. They do not slide. You will find a sweep at the bottom of the door. The sweep is vitally important because it helps stop air from entering and exiting the walk-in unit. It will create a seal to ensure that the system remains enclosed. The door sweeps require regular maintenance to guarantee that it is working correctly. In some cases, adjustments must be made. Unfortunately, this might be too difficult for the average individual. Therefore, we recommend working with a qualified professional.
Walk-in units with swinging doors usually have hydraulic door closers. The component closes the door when someone enters or exits. The only downside is that the equipment may malfunction and the door may be left open. We can fix these components and more. All you have to do is
