Every degree costs money — and in cold storage, the door is where the energy leaves.
We supply and install insulated high-speed doors and freezer doors that hold temperatures from chill rooms down to -28°C: fast cycles, sealed construction and anti-icing designs that keep doorways clear and compressors resting.
GEA specifies, installs and services cold chain doors for food and pharmaceutical logistics across Ireland.

- Deep-freeze rated – EFA-SST TK 100 high-speed doors operate reliably down to -28°C.
- Insulated construction – EFA-SST ISO 60 laths and insulated sectional panels cut heat transfer.
- Rapid cycles – opening speeds up to 4 m/s minimise air exchange every time the door operates.
- Anti-icing design – heated frames and seals prevent ice build-up on freezer doorways.
- Hygienic and washdown-ready – materials selected for food-safe cleaning regimes.
- Nationwide service – planned maintenance keeps cold chain doors cycling and compliant.
Our cold chain doors serve cold stores, freezer rooms, chilled distribution hubs, food production and pharmaceutical warehousing.

Doors that protect the cold chain
From receiving bays to blast freezers, every doorway in a cold chain facility is a point where temperature, energy and product safety are at risk. The right door specification — insulation value, cycle speed, sealing and de-icing — decides your running costs and your audit results. GEA matches each opening to the right EFAFLEX or sectional solution and backs it with nationwide service.
Benefits of high-speed cold storage doors
- Lower energy bills: fast cycles and sealed construction cut refrigeration losses at every opening.
- Stable temperatures: reduced air exchange protects product quality and audit compliance.
- No icing downtime: heated designs stop doors freezing shut or icing the floor.
- Faster traffic: forklifts keep moving — no waiting on slow-opening freezer doors.
- Longer equipment life: compressors work less when doorways leak less.
Types of cold storage doors
- High-speed doors – high-speed freezer doors — insulated, heated, down to -28°C.
- Insulated sectional doors – thermally broken 80 mm sectional doors for cold store openings.

Frequently Asked Questions
The EFA-SST TK 100 is designed for deep-freeze environments down to -28°C, with insulated laths and heated frames and seals that prevent icing.
Refrigeration loss happens while a door is open. Opening speeds up to 4 m/s and immediate closing cut the open time per cycle dramatically, which reduces air exchange, temperature fluctuation and compressor load.
Freezer-rated doors use heated side frames, bottom seals and vision panels so moisture cannot freeze the curtain to the frame or build ice on the floor — a common failure with unheated doors.
Yes. Materials and finishes are chosen for hygienic washdown regimes, and the reduced temperature fluctuation supports HACCP and GDP compliance in audited cold chains.
Yes. GEA services all major brands nationwide, with planned maintenance programmes covering seals, heating elements, drives and safety systems.
