A cold chain distribution facility in Ontario was losing temperature control at an internal transition between a refrigerated staging zone and an ambient picking area. Slow conventional doors were allowing sustained cold air loss, increasing refrigeration costs and causing compliance concerns.
Wilcox Door Service retrofitted the zone transition with a high-speed insulated door that minimizes open time between the refrigerated and ambient zones. The door integrates with the facility’s forklift loop detection for automatic cycling.
