Cold Store Sliding Door

What is a Cold Store Sliding Door?

Lynxcool's Cold Store Sliding Doors are the preferred choice for commercial cold storage, industrial freezers, food processing plants, pharmaceutical cold storage, and distribution centers worldwide. Designed for frequent access and narrow aisles, the horizontal sliding mechanism allows easy passage for pallet trucks, forklifts, and pedestrians without swaying into the driveway.

1.Energy-Saving Insulation

The door body uses a rigid polyurethane foam core and metal panels, providing insulation performance comparable to our cold storage wall panels. Peripheral sealing strips ensure airtightness and moisture protection, preventing warm air infiltration, thereby improving energy efficiency and minimizing refrigeration load.

2.Advanced Anti-Freeze Protection

For low-temperature environments, the door frame is equipped with an electrically heated anti-condensation device to prevent frost buildup and ensure smooth operation even in harsh conditions.

3.Complete Package, Easy Installation

Each cold storage sliding door comes with a complete top rail assembly, door hardware, safety devices, and all necessary installation accessories. Manufactured in China to stringent standards, ensuring consistent quality and superior insulation performance..

Product Advantages

1. Full-width Sliding: Our Cold Store Sliding Door features a stainless steel top rail with no swaying, perfect for narrow passages and locations with frequent forklift use.

2. Matching Insulation Layer: Polyurethane foam core effectively prevents thermal weak points and frost buildup.

3. Airtight Sealing: Multi-layer magnetic/compression sealing strips block warm air, reducing cooling load.

4. Freeze Protection: Equipped with an electrically heated anti-condensation frame to prevent the door from freezing.

5. Flexible Operation: Manual or electric drive options available, suitable for high-traffic/large doors.

6. Complete Package: Includes top rail, hardware, safety devices, and all installation accessories; ready to use immediately.

Technical Parameters

Designed for Your Industry

1. Industrial Cold Storage Warehouses and Cold Storage Units

Ideal for continuous forklift operation—2,500–3,500 mm wide openings accommodate loaded pallets. Doors wider than 2,000 mm are standard with electric drive. Rated for over 100,000 open/close cycles, suitable for high-volume locations.

2. Quick-Freezing Chambers

Rapid opening/closing minimizes warm air infiltration. 100–200 mm thick panels withstand extreme temperature variations; electric drive allows for remote opening via forklift.

3. Food Processing Cleanrooms

Hygienic design with food-grade epoxy/PVDF panels and a 304 stainless steel frame. Smooth surface for easy cleaning, no wobbling arc to prevent impact damage.

4. Pharmaceutical and Controlled Atmosphere Rooms

Airtight/moisture-proof seals precisely maintain temperature/humidity, crucial for GMP-compliant facilities. Electric drive prevents violent door slamming and seal damage under high pressure.

5.Modular and Pre-cooled Storage: 

The Cold Store Sliding Door can be integrated with our polyurethane wall panels. The door frame can be directly installed into the wall panel openings, simplifying installation and meeting your entire cold storage enclosure needs.

Manufacturing Workshop

FAQ

Q: What size Cold Store Sliding Door does my forklift require?

A: Minimum width = loading pallet width + 400–600 mm per side (e.g., 1200 mm pallet = 2000 mm door). Height = loading pallet height + 300–400 mm. Our engineering team in China will help you select the appropriate door based on your forklift/pallet specifications.

Q: Which is better, magnetic or compression sealing strips?

A: Magnetic sealing strips are more reliable—even with gentle closing or slight misalignment, the magnets hold the strip firmly against the door frame. Compression sealing strips are suitable for larger doors where magnetism is insufficient.

Q: Do I need a door frame heater?

A: Door frame heaters are required for cold storage with temperatures ≤0°C. They are recommended for cold storage with temperatures between 0°C and +5°C in hot/humid climates. We include them as standard equipment on our sub-zero temperature doors manufactured in China.

Q: How often should the weatherstripping be replaced?

A: 50,000-100,000 cycles (typical lifespan 5-15 years). Replace the weatherstripping when you notice cracks, frost on the door frame, or increased temperature. Weatherstripping is readily available—no tools required, replacement can be completed in 30 minutes.

Q: Can I operate the automatic door manually during a power outage?

A: Yes—the manual operation button will disconnect the motor, and the balance spring will keep the force ≤50N. No tools required—ideal for power outages or maintenance situations.
