Walk-in coolers are large commercial refrigeration systems. As their name suggests, they are large enough to &#8220;walk in.&#8221; Whether you own a restaurant, cafe, food processing business or any other business that has a walk-in cooler, you&#8217;ll need to choose the right type of lock for it. Here are five essential features to look for when choosing a walk-in cooler lock <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#1) Resistant to Cold Temperatures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Walk-in cooler locks must be able to resist cold temperatures. After all, they are designed for use in cold environments. Conventional walk-in freezers have a temperature of about 35 degrees Fahrenheit, whereas walk-in freezers have a temperature of about minus 10 degrees Fahrenheit. You&#8217;ll need to choose a walk-in cooler lock that&#8217;s able to withstand the cool air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#2) Strong Seal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When choosing a walk-in cooler lock, make sure it has a strong seal. Walk-in cooler locks are used to connect the doors to the large refrigeration systems after which they are named. With a weak seal, some of the cool air may leak out of the walk-in cooler. A strong seal, on the other hand, will contain the cool air to the walk-in cooler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#3) Adjustable Roller Strike<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Another essential feature to look for in a walk-in cooler lock is an adjustable roller strike. The roller strike is the part of a walk-in cooler lock that the latch touches or strikes when closing the door. If it&#8217;s adjustable, you&#8217;ll be able to move it so that it&#8217;s aligned with the latch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#4) Padlock Support<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you plan on securing your walk-in cooler, you should choose a walk-in cooler lock that supports a padlock. A padlock is a simple lock consisting of a pad and shackle. Some walk-in cooler locks feature a pre-drilled hole through the body. You can place the shackle of a padlock through this hole, at which point the door will be locked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#5) Powder-Coated Finish<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You should consider choosing a walk-in cooler lock with a powder-coated finish. A powder-coated finish is exactly what it sounds like: It consists of powder particles that are blasted onto the surface of an object. Walk-in cooler locks are typically made of metal, such as cast iron, but you can find them with a powder-coated finish. The powder-coated finish helps to protect the underlying metal from wear and tear. It will prevent moisture from reaching the underlying metal &#8212; something that could otherwise lead to corrosion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You can&#8217;t use just any lock for a walk-in cooler.
