With the ever increasing cost of electricity, the proper selection of insulated refrigeration doors in California is extremely important for the overall efficiency of the facility. Obviously when it comes to choosing an insulated door for a cold storage facility they have to be the correct type and size to accommodate traffic and to maintain the interior temperature. It is extremely important that the doors open and close automatically and that they are fitted with efficient seals. A door that is well sealed and only open for the minimum amount of time will keep the cold in the room and the heat out.
