1) Electrically powered door are designed - for safety - to be easily opened in a power cut.The thing is though that, should the power go off, most shops will have to close anyway. Electrically powered doors, lighting, freezers will all go off, and so will the tills. So we couldn't accept cash anyway, because the tills won't work, and we aren't allowed customers in because of the health and safety implications of the doors not working, the fire alarm not working and the freezers being off.
2) If you keep the door shut of a freezer, big or small, then it has a large amount of time to de-frost. I.E. Items inside it come to room temperature.
2) When a till has no electrical power, the OWNER has a key which unlocks the drawer. Taking the electrical power from ANY cash till does not 'lock' it into the thing.
You think that, in a severe emergency, no one can do anything? Especially the staff, who will be hit by public ire, as well as their employers?
