What is a 2.4m x 2.4m cold room?
A 2.4m x 2.4m cold room is a modular cold room designed to provide high-capacity, walk-in chilled storage in a fixed location. Unlike mobile refrigerated trailers, this walk in cold room is assembled on site using insulated cold room panels to create a secure, temperature-controlled refrigerator room tailored to your available space.
With an internal capacity of 10.5mยณ (370ftยณ), the modular 2.4m x 2.4m cold room offers generous cold room storage while maintaining a compact footprint. Operating within an adjustable temperature range of 0ยฐC to +10ยฐC, this cold room provides stable chilled conditions suitable for food, beverages and temperature-sensitive stock.
Often referred to as a walk in fridge or walk in chiller, this unit provides full internal access, making it ideal where shelving, organised stock rotation and regular entry are required. As part of our cold room hire solutions across cold rooms UK, this model is a popular choice for businesses requiring a temporary cold room without permanent installation.
Construction, refrigeration system and performance
The 2.4m x 2.4m cold room is constructed using high-specification insulated cold room panels, creating a sealed and hygienic environment. All panels are thoroughly cleaned prior to every hire. The unit includes a stainless steel floor for durability and safe access.
Cooling is delivered via a commercial cold room chiller unit fitted with a digital temperature control panel, allowing accurate monitoring and adjustment. The integrated cold room refrigeration system maintains consistent performance across the full 0ยฐC to +10ยฐC range.
When empty, the cold room typically requires 1โ2 hours to reach operating temperature. Power options include:
- 16A โCโ Form single phase
- Portable generator (minimum 6Kva to run one unit)
A suitable power source must be available within 3 metres of the unit at installation. If the correct supply is not present, the cold room chiller unit cannot be commissioned.
The 2.4m x 2.4m cold room can be positioned indoors or outdoors. If installed internally, adequate ventilation must be provided to allow expelled hot air to dissipate. The refrigeration motor operates effectively up to a maximum external ambient temperature of 28ยฐC.
Internal LED lighting is included, along with a lockable door featuring an internal escape lever for safety compliance. PVC chill strips and python holes are available upon request. Optional extras such as a ramp and pallet door can be supplied at additional cost.
A modular cold room designed for commercial use
This temporary 2.4m x 2.4m cold room functions as a commercial walk in fridge, providing greater internal accessibility than many smaller walk in fridges. Because it is assembled on site, the structure can be installed in locations where access for larger units may be restricted.
As a portable cold room solution, it offers flexibility for temporary operational expansion, refurbishment works or seasonal demand increases. Businesses searching for walk in fridge rental, cold room rental or walk in chiller hire benefit from the structured layout and stable refrigeration performance.
The modular design also makes this unit suitable for industrial cold room applications where dependable cold room refrigeration is essential. Compared to mobile refrigerated trailers, the walk in chiller room provides direct walk-in access and a more traditional fridge room environment, supporting efficient stock handling.
