Designed to fit, not forced
Stock walk-ins are sized for catalog convenience, not your Lackawanna kitchen. We measure the room you have — including door swing, floor drain, ceiling height, and the obstructions nobody warned you about — then spec panels that fit. The result is usable interior space instead of wasted aisles.
Refrigeration that lasts in Buffalo
We size the refrigeration system for the actual product load and the actual ambient, not a generic spec sheet. Compressors live longer when they're sized right, and your power bill is a fraction of what an oversized system costs. For freezers and high-volume coolers we offer remote condensers and glycol loops to keep heat — and noise — outside.
Repairs and retrofits
If your existing walk-in is losing temperature, icing up, or burning through gaskets, the answer usually isn't a new box. We diagnose the system, replace what's failing — coils, valves, door sweeps, panels — and bring it back to spec for a fraction of replacement cost.
