Like our 1-3/4” FRP doors, Weiland Swinging Cold Storage FRP Doors are built for a higher standard of durability, hygiene, and corrosion resistance for both cooler and freezer applications. This door was designed to work where commoditized, painted galvanized, walk-in style cooler doors do not.
The attributes that best define this product are Weiland’s FiberShell™ and CleanCor™ technologies. FiberShell™ technology is our way of building an FRP door panel. Our fiberglass is continuous and seamless around all sides of the door panel. This process yields a cleanable and durable shell that prevents harborage and will not corrode. CleanCor™ technology is at the center of our fiberglass doors. Our CleanCor™ is composed of closed-cell polyurethane foam and inorganic high screw-retention composites for hardware reinforcement. The door panel is then made void-free through our resin injection process.
Weiland Swinging Cold Storage FRP Doors are hung in a 16 Ga. stainless steel casing style frame. We inject 5 lb p.c.f. insulating structural foam into our face casings and back-trim. To mitigate harborage areas at would-be seams between the vertical and horizontal sections of the frame, we fully weld them together.
At Weiland, we curate hardware for harsh environments and pre-install hardware and attributes at the factory. Weiland FRP doors are ready to install upon delivery.
The Weiland Advantage:

Architectural Details
Size
4″ thick doors are readily available in standard 3×7′ nominal sizes. Custom sizes are available for double doors, and 3′ wide openings taller than 7′. Consult with your account executive for more details.
Gelcoat
Premium 25-mil gelcoat is molded into our fiberglass doors, chemically bonding with the underlying fiberglass resins. This exterior protects against corrosion and deterioration, and provides a hygienic surface. Most customers opt for UV resistant white doors, however other custom gel-coat colors are available. Consult with your account executive for advice.
FiberShell™ Technology
Weiland stands apart from all other swinging cold storage doors on the market, by being not just the only fiberglass cooler door on the market, but the only one to be molded all at once with FiberShell™ technology. The front, back, and sides are formed at once through an advanced close-molded process yielding a solid, continuous and seamless structure of fiberglass. Measuring more than 1/8” inch thick on the face and nearly .375″ thick on the edges, Weiland’s fiberglass exterior is the thickest of any swinging cold storage door in the industry.
Stainless Steel Casings with WeldWrap™ Technology
Industry leading 16 Gauge stainless steel face casings with WeldWrap™ technology come standard with injected 5 lb per cubic foot polyurethane cores. The vertical and horizontal sections of casing are fully welded together for a seamless, maintenance free application. The core of the jamb is fabricated from HDPE plastic lumber. Jamb depths are built to virtually any size, accommodating any wall type or depth. This swinging cold storage FRP door panel can also be paired with a conventional white metal casing as well upon request.
Void-free CleanCor™ Technology
The core of our swinging cold storage FRP door was engineered using a combination of advanced polymers for maximum screw retention, and premium polyurethane foam for maximum r-value. There are no voids anywhere in the door panel and no harborage areas.
Stainless Steel Vision Panels
Standard sizes are 12×18″ and 10×10″, and can special order any custom size. We provide scratch resistant polycarbonate glazing in most applications (which is much more durable and chemical resistant than standard Lexan), and can also provide insulated, tempered, heated and safety coated glass, depending on the environment.
Pre-Mounted Hardware
Weiland utilizes the highest quality stainless steel hinges, latches, and hardware from a variety of the best manufacturers in the USA. Chrome plate hardware is available upon request.
