Cold Room

Specification

The modular cold room


panels have a dovetail
detail to give maximum
insulation and to stop
air leakage.

All Storer cold rooms have a Storers only use our own
fully rebated door. This allows employed staff to manufacture
for great insulation, which and install our cold rooms. Each
cannot be achieved by slab or team of staff has a team leader
semi rebated doors. The fully who is trained as a construction
rebated door system has a self- site supervisor. All sites are
closing ram, which will close the checked by our construction site
door behind staff without the manager before handover to the
need for the door to be kicked or client. We have all current
slammed shut. This ram can qualifications ensuring a long
only be used on fully rebated lasting cold room with a box
doors. warranty of 5 years.
Construction

Our cold rooms are constructed modularly with each panel securely locking
together by our cam lock system. The cam locks are secured in place when
the panels are foam injected in house. Panel edges are precision box formed
for strength with dovetail joins ensuring a durable and efficient joint.

Panels

Storers standard panel width is 1200mm. We then can build to the nearest
50mm due to our flexible manufacturing process. This prevents the need for
‘cut and shuts’, which some other manufacturers have to do to adapt different
sized cold rooms. Storers always have a true panel with cam lock and
dovetail joints.

Coving

The coving system is made by Storers and supplied as standard. It is totally


sealed and gives an easy clean and food safe finish.

Doors

Doors are based on a standard 1200mm panel and can have the following
openings: 600mm, 650mm, 700mm, 750mm, 800mm and 900mm. Door
heaters are installed on all cold rooms that operate below zero. We install the
heaters within the panel which helps prevent them becoming damaged and
delivers more efficient heat transfer. This system is low voltage. Door
gaskets are push in type and can be easily replaced.
General Summary

Chiller Application

-5 to +2 degrees centigrade temperature range. 80mm modular panels are


fastened together with cam locks into a rebated urethane harbour.

The outer construction of the modular panels is 0.6mm galvanised steel with
200 microns of food safe white plastic bonded onto outer panels. The
polyurethane is then foam injected into the panel giving a fully bonded panel.
With our method of construction we are able to build panels to suit every
shape and size required.

The door is also constructed from modular panels using Kason catches with
easily replaceable door gaskets. The doors have an internal release and
locking device that can be over ridden from inside the cold room. Our
standard swing doors are fully rebated and self-closing. This self-closing door
system saves 30% in energy as doors can be left open by kitchen staff.

Deep Freeze Application

-21 to –18 degrees centigrade temperature range.

Same specification as chillers but with door heaters.

Cold room roof specification for outside use if required

All our outside cold rooms have a PVC tailored roof cover that is purpose
made to seal the entire area in one continuous sheet.

 Base fabric – 1100 D/TEX high tenacity polyester


 Coating – flexible plasticised PVC to both sides
 Tensile strength – warp 2000, weft 1500 BS3424/5A
 Tear strength – BS3424/9B
 Cold crack – BS3424/10 –25C
 Colour – brown and green PVC

This roof cover system requires no maintenance and is designed to last the
lifetime of the cold room. If any damage is caused to the roof a new sheet
can simply be fitted without any disturbance to the cold room.

Food safe cold room wall colour details for external use

Vandyke brown – BS08B29 – RAL8004


Olive green – BS132B27 – RAL6003
