Hold Opens Matter

We know how important it is to keep your reach-in coolers running smoothly. That isn’t possible unless you have reliable parts for each door. One of the most critical components? The hold open.

Why Hold Opens Matter

Every reach-in cooler door depends on a hold open to function properly. This small but crucial part connects the door to the case and keeps it open for stocking or shopping. A strong hold open also prevents slamming, protects the gasket from tearing, and stops the door from overextending.

When a hold open wears out or breaks, problems add up fast:

  1. Doors can misalign
  2. Gaskets tear prematurely
  3. Energy efficiency drops
  4. In worst case, the door may need full replacement

Even if the rest of the system is in good shape, a weak hold open can compromise the entire unit.
