What to Look for in Walk In Freezer Panels

When looking for a new walk in freezer, it’s important to make sure your freezer is constructed of high quality walk in freezer panels. Walk in freezer panels are constructed in many different ways using many different types of materials and insulations. The following article will focus on what to look for when searching for walk in freezer panels, to help you make an informed decision that you will be happy with for years to come.

Walk in freezer panels are not all the same. Many people assume that all walk in coolers and freezers are the same and simply look at overall cost as a determining factor. However, this can lead to a disappointed buyer if they don’t do their homework. When buying walk in freezer panels, be absolutely sure to look for polyurethane insulation. Polyurethane insulation provides a better R-value than extruded polystyrene while also being more durable. Also, be sure to look for wood frame construction. Wood frame construction allows your cam lock to be anchored in to actual wood and not just anchored in foam. Cam locks anchored in foam can pull loose, making it nearly impossible to seal your walk in freezer panels. On top of providing an anchor for cam locks, wood frame construction is also more durable and will allow your walk in freezer panels to stand up to punishment better than an all foam box.

Next, make sure that your walk in freezer panels are made using high quality finish. At American Cooler Technologies, we use 26 gauge embossed galvanized as our standard finish. We do this for 2 reasons, one being it is a durable, nice looking finish. The embossed finish also helps hide dents and dings that your walk in freezer panels are likely to encounter over it’s life.
