Cold storage that protects your stock and your margins.

Refrigeration is the one part of a commercial kitchen that can't have an off day. If the cold chain breaks you lose stock, you lose service, and you risk a failed health inspection.

Petra Group has been building hospitality spaces from our Sydney base since 1988. We design and install walk-in cool rooms, freezer rooms and commercial refrigeration as part of a full fitout — or as a standalone project for an existing venue.

Every system is sized to your actual product volume, delivery cycle and ambient conditions, not a generic spec sheet. That means the right panel thickness, the right condensing unit and a layout that keeps stock rotating — so the temperature holds and your power bill doesn't blow out.

Service & repairs

Refrigeration breakdowns don't wait for business hours.

When a cool room fails, the clock starts on your stock. We repair and maintain commercial refrigeration across Sydney — whether we installed it or not.

Our licensed refrigeration technicians handle breakdown repairs, gas leaks, controller and thermostat faults, door seal and hinge replacement, condenser cleaning and compressor work. We carry common spare parts so more jobs are fixed on the first visit.

Better still, most failures announce themselves well before they become a callout. A preventative maintenance schedule catches rising discharge temperatures, dirty condensers and failing seals early — keeping your cold chain intact and your food-safety records clean.

FAQ

Cool room & refrigeration questions.

How much does a cool room cost in Sydney?

Cost depends on the size of the room, the temperature range, panel specification and the refrigeration plant required. A small cool room is a very different budget to a multi-room cold store with remote plant. After a site visit we provide an itemised quote covering panels, doors, plant, electrical and installation.

What size cool room do I need?

It comes down to your stock volume, delivery frequency and how you rotate product — not just floor area. We assess your actual usage on site and size the room and plant accordingly, allowing room for growth so you're not rebuilding in two years.

How long does installation take?

A straightforward cool room can often be installed in a matter of days once panels and plant are on site. Larger or multi-room projects, or rooms forming part of a full fitout, are scheduled into the overall program. We'll give you a firm timeline with your quote.

Can you install a cool room in an existing venue?

Yes. We regularly retrofit cool rooms and refrigeration into operating venues, and where possible we stage the work around trading hours or a planned closure to keep your downtime to a minimum.

Do you service and repair commercial refrigeration?

Yes. We offer preventative maintenance and breakdown repairs, plus spare parts support. Regular servicing is the cheapest insurance against stock loss — most failures give warning signs well before they become a callout.

Do you offer finance on refrigeration?

Yes. We offer flexible finance with low weekly rentals and no establishment fees, so you can fund refrigeration alongside the rest of your fitout without a large upfront outlay.
