When it comes to energy management and productivity, doors are sometimes overlooked as an opportunity for improvement of cold storage operations. High-speed doors can help prevent the infiltration of warm air to food storage areas and keep material-handling equipment operating productively and safely.
Each door represents a hole in the building envelope that provides an escape route for energy every time traffic enters and exits the building, or travels from a refrigerated section to one that is at room temperature. As a result, smart building owners and managers focus on sealing up every crack in the building envelope.
