The Value Difference Hand-Framing Makes.
Jamison Doors start with a hand-constructed framing
designed specifically for your application. Starting this way
allows us to provide secure, strong, properly positioned
mounting supports for the hardware. It also makes it possible
for us to add the extra strength needed on larger doors.
Look-Alike Door Materials
Don’t Perform Alike.
Many cold storage doors are made by simply
assembling facings and frame components to a
pre-fab panel of either expanded polystyrene or
urethane. Instead, Jamison creates a superior
monolithic structure by using foamed-in-place
urethane. It delivers superior R-values for a given
cross section and it’s damage-resistant. It also
provides a narrow profile that saves you valuable
floor space, adds operating efficiency, and helps
protect the door from damage.
5. 3
Quality Hardware and Electric Panels
are a Part of Every Jamison Door.
The quality of Jamison hardware is clearly
visible. Compare our track assemblies, hinges,
latches and rollers, and you will see they are the
heaviest-duty quality available. This assures you
of longer door life with less costly maintenance
and downtime.
We Pay Special Attention to Door Gaskets.
Gaskets are the first line of defense against energy loss in
a cold storage door. That is why we pay special attention
to gasket materials, design and installation. We use many
different shapes and formulations, each designed for a
specific use. Our gaskets are actually a part of the door
design, not an afterthought. On all Mark IV Doors, the
gaskets are field adjustable to retain full sealing ability
over many years of use. Most importantly, the design and
operation of our door closing systems minimize gasket
drag and protect the gaskets from wear.
The Most Unique and Reliable
Door Closing Systems Available.
Our Patented Diamond-Trac®
System is a
“down-and-in” sliding door system that
establishes the most effective thermal seal
with compression points at heads, sides,
and sills. The Diamond-Trac System
provides an easy and quiet opening and
closing cycle. Our overhead and vertical
doors use the same long-life “down-and-in” sealing principle. Our swing doors use heavy-
duty latches and hinges for rapid action, low-maintenance, and high dependability.
Jamison Builds in Additional Protection.
For more operating protection, we include a sensitive edge on power sliding doors that
reverses motion instantly if touched. All vertical door counterweights are secured to both
sides of the door. All Jamison doors can be equipped so that they can be opened from the
inside, even when padlocked from the front.
And for added protection of your investment in Jamison quality, there
is a Five Year Limited Warranty on all Jamison Mark IV Doors.

Re-CirculatoryAirDoorTechnology
Engineered Solutions for Open Doorways
In 1974, the founders of HCR set out to find a better solution for moving traffic through cooler and freezer doors. Using a completely
fresh engineering approach and the principles of psychrometrics, the refrigeration engineers at HCR developed new technologies that
pioneered the re-circulatory air door industry.
Today, with more than 30 years of field experience, HCR has gone from the drawing board to application, from a basic idea to reality
and has proven itself with thousands of successful installations worldwide inside the facilities of the largest, most demanding and cost-
conscious grocery and food distribution centers, food processing plants and refrigerated warehouses.
31. 29
HCRAirDoorsRemoveAllObstacles
HCR makes the appeal of an unencumbered, wide-
open doorway for your workers to move about freely and
efficiently a reality…removing all obstacles from your path.
The benefits of HCR in your facility are visibly dramatic
through the elimination of frost and ice and additionally
remarkable in increasing productivity. When applied to
large freezers with high-traffic or problematic doors, fully-
operational HCR units are essentially the same as adding
refrigeration capacity.
Merchandise movement is significantly increased and
HCR units help expand critical storage space. Safety
concerns are reduced due to the clear visibility of the open
doorway, the removal of frost and ice on the floor, and the
elimination of moving door parts. HCR makes the appeal of
an unencumbered, wide-open doorway for your workers to
move about freely and efficiently a reality… removing all
obstacles from their path.
The Principles of Psychrometrics Put to Work
Psychrometrics is the study of moisture in the air and the
changes in air conditions such as temperature, absolute and
relative humidity, and moisture content. Nowhere are the
effects of psychrometric principles more evident than in a
cold storage environment.
According to the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating
and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), within seconds
after a door is open a natural air exchange occurs. When there
is a doorway between two rooms with considerable or extreme
temperature differences, the natural air exchange translates
into significant cold air loss and warm air and moisture
infiltration. Further, infiltrating air can account for up to 50%
of the refrigeration load in a cold storage facility.
Rigid doors work well where traffic is low and open and
close cycles are few and of short duration, or when the room
temperature differences are not extreme. But there comes a
point where a rigid door no longer serves as the most cost-
effective solution. The more the door is opened, the more air
exchange takes place and the doorway is subject to all of the
problems that would occur as if there were no door at all.
HCR applies the principles of psychrometrics by first
eliminating the moving door that is constantly opening and
closing replacing it with a wide open doorway vestibule that
provides a continuous air barrier between rooms, preventing
infiltration while capturing and conditioning the air to a
non-frost non-fog producing state.

ModelACAirCurtain
Air Flow Patterns
of the AC
Model AC is HCR’s basic unit—Horizontal,
Curvilinear, and Recirculatory. Its air stream produces
counter-flow forces equal and opposite to the two-
way flow-through forces caused by air temperature
differences.
• Significantly reduces two-way air exchange
• Greatly diminishes air infiltration
• Mixes air at the interface between room air and the
air curtain’s air stream
• For open doorways between cooler-to-cooler, cooler-
to-ambient, and freezer-to-freezer
• Available in stainless and powder-coat finishes
• Can be used between two freezers without requiring
any heat
33. 31
ModelCACConditionedAirCurtain
Using Computational Fluid Dynamic
software, air flow patterns with HCR’s Air
Curtain are made visible. CFD software shows
how the air is circulating and captured within
the AC unit.
ModelNPAC
NegativePressureAirCurtain
The Model CAC Air Curtain is for applications where humidity is extreme.
A heater unit is added to condition the air as it mixes inside the vestibule.
For an unprotected doorway, CFD shows cold
air escaping from a freezer into a warmer
anteroom.
Using a single air curtain, CFD shows how
an air barrier is established and refrigeration
loss eliminated
The basic
NPAC model is
made to counteract
the one-way flow-
through forces
caused by negative
building pressure
or by wind effects.
34. 32
ModelDCAVDoubleConditionedAirVestibule
Air Flow Patterns
of the DCAV
The Model DCAV consists of two
HCR air curtains. When placed together
and designed to work in harmony, it
creates an air vestibule between the two
air streams where the air is captured and
treated to a non-frost, non-fog state.
It measures approximately eight feet in
the direction of travel.
• No frost, fog or icing
• Eliminates safety hazards
• No haze within cold room
• Reduced maintenance costs
• No frost on stored products
• Reduced moisture gains
• Reduced refrigeration loss
• Reduced coil defrosting burden
• Increased warehouse productivity
• Improved refrigeration cycle efficiency
• Sublimates existing frost build-up
The Model DCAV automatically adjusts
as conditions change to optimize
performance and reduce energy
consumption.
Using Computational Fluid Dynamic software
(CFD), typical air flow patterns of cold air
escaping onto a refrigerated dock can clearly
be seen.
Treating the same opening with HCR’s DCAV shows
how the air is mixed and held within the vestibule
area, minimizing air escape and infiltration.
Inside the vestibule the air is treated to a non-
frost, non-fog state.

Achieve the next level of
efficiency by adding an HCR Model
AC or CAC to your existing door. Perfect
for high-traffic doorways where ice and
infiltration are a challenge, an HCR Air
Door provides another layer of protection to
assure that the opening remains accessible
for workflow, yet closed for costly air
infiltration and energy efficiency.

ModelECAVFrost-FreeAirlok-Door™
Strip curtains can be added to
all HCR models for even greater efficiency
in the conditioning process. The Model
ECAV consists of two fast-acting strip doors
that create a vestibule for conditioning air
and an electrically or hot-gas heated anti-
frost air-conditioning (AFC) section with
automatic temperature control. The ECAV
is designed for medium- to light-traffic
freezers and high humidity situations
and measures approximately 28.5 in the
direction of travel.
ModelASSDFast-ActingTrafficDoor
The Model ASSD is a swift opening and closing motorized strip-door.
Actuated by HCR’s “air-slicing” type motion detectors, strip-door operation is easily adjusted
to suit traffic speed.
• May be mounted inside the doorway or within the door jamb.
• Recommended for doorways subjected to infiltration due to temperature differences
• Fully-lapped fixed strips retain 95% effectiveness
• Clear plastic strips significantly outlast push-through strips
• For negative pressure applications under 1 mph flow-through velocity
• Can be used between two freezers without requiring any heat

HCRAirDoorOptions
HCR units can also be
constructed of stainless steel.
1. Waste Heat Reclaim
All HCR freezer doorway units can
optionally be fitted to include waste heat
reclaim coils making use of the facility’s
refrigeration waste heat, a by-product of the
refrigeration process. Steam or glycol can
also be utilized if available. The amount of
heat required depends on the doorway size,
model selected and levels of temperature
and humidity existing on each side of the
opening.
2. Finishes
HCR basic units use powder-coated cold-
rolled steel which is custom fabricated
to the specific dimensions of individual
openings. HCR units are also available in
stainless steel. Powder coating is a method
of coating using a powdered plastic resin
which is melted onto the unit. Powder
coating is usually applied in a single coat,
which is very efficient and cost-effective,
and provides excellent protection against
corrosion.
3. Bollards
HCR manufactures bollards to accompany
its units for maximum protection against
damage. Bollards are power-coated in
safety yellow. (Request bollard spec sheet
for details)
4. Installation
Turn-key installation services are provided
by HCR. Optional HCR supervised
installation can be arranged using the
maintenance personnel and equipment
located at the facility site.
