What to Know About the Different Types of Walk-in Cooler Doors

Posted by Writer - September 14, 2021 - Walk In Cooler

Walk-in coolers are designed to provide optimum insulation to keep food fresh for as long as possible in commercial food storage facilities and commercial kitchens. However, some business owners who rely on commercial coolers for their food storage don’t know much about different types of cooler doors or how they work. To help you make sure you have the best cooler model for your business, keep reading to learn about different types of walk-in cooler doors.

Different types of walk-in cooler doors

Understanding walk-in cooler door differences can make it easier to choose a walk-in cooler design that works for your needs. There are different benefits and disadvantages to take into account when choosing a door style for a walk-in cooler. Here’s a closer look at two different types of walk-in cooler doors and the differences between them:

  • Sliding doors: Sliding doors are installed on tracks so they can be moved horizontally to open the cooler and access the food stored inside. The design of sliding doors makes it more likely for sealing issues to occur. While these doors are designed with special stripping to create an airtight seal when the door is closed, it’s common for the seal to weaken over time and cause temperature loss and contamination.
  • Swinging doors: Swinging doors are installed on hinges that open outward for access to the cooler. These doors typically have sweeps on the bottom to create a better seal around the door and keep contamination out of the cooler. Swinging doors typically also have hydraulic door closers that help seal the door completely when it’s closed. Over time, everyday use of swinging doors can put excessive stress on hinges and closing mechanisms. After a while, it’s common for these parts and mechanisms to wear out or sustain damage. Keep an eye on how your door is functioning and pay attention to any signs that the door components are damaged and need to be repaired or replaced.

Keeping cooler doors working properly

Commercial coolers can be very expensive, and nobody wants to deal with the inconvenience or cost associated with repairing or replacing a faulty cooler door. The best way to prevent problems with cooler doors is to keep up with routine maintenance and proactive repairs. A commercial cooler technician can inspect the doors of your cooler and provide recommendations to extend their lifespan and improve your cooler’s efficiency and performance. In addition, commercial cooler technicians can identify small problems before they get worse to minimize the inconvenience associated with a malfunctioning cooler.
