Booked as a standard callout, it normally reaches a Green Point site within 45–90 min. We isolate the fault, correct it with matched parts and confirm the unit holds temperature under normal load.

Stop the fault returning

  • Book a service check ahead of peak trading so the freezer room under the heaviest load is not the one that fails.

  • Keep a documented escalation path for temperature alarms so door seal failure is answered in minutes, not noticed at close.

  • Schedule quarterly preventative maintenance on your freezer room to catch wear before it becomes door seal failure.

  • Keep condenser fins clean and airflow clear — the leading preventable cause of door seal failure in supermarkets cold chains.
