AES Reskin
Think of reskinning as a "facelift" for your machine/system. This is when it goes through the same steps for repair, but it's also improved through thorough cleaning, tuning, and re-equipping. Systems that go through reskinning may be many years old, but after, look and perform like they did when they were new!
Reskins are one small aspect of what we do. With AES, we can brighten up your equipment with a deep clean. This helps all of your customers see and feel confident about what you're displaying.
AES Repair
Repairing means fixing what is in disrepair to bring it to the exact same state the machine/system was in before it broke. Items are replaced if broken beyond repair, but not upgraded. After a repair, the machine/system should work exactly as it did before it broke - no better, no worse. Simple repairs are a great option to get your machine/system back online, simple as that.
The repairs on your cooler or freezer range from an hour or two to a couple of days. Before beginning any work, we help to discuss the need for temporary storage for the food in your unit with the manufacturer or service company doing the repair. Still, make sure to schedule repairs during off-hours or during slow periods as trips to the unit for products will affect interior temperatures.
Our technicians fix problems, whether with the refrigeration system and freezer, or damage to the interior of the unit. The first step is to contact the manufacturer or service company that provided your walk-in. They will let you know what materials and parts need to be replaced and how long it will take.
AES Retrofit
AES is the leading name in refrigeration, offering an array of both new and replacement options. We have a complete line of lighting solutions, including energy-saving LED state-of-the-art lighting systems that provide a lasting display effect with improved visibility, reduced energy use, and added safety.
We retrofit doors on Dairy, Deli, and Beverage cases. Our doors allow the case to use less energy because they don't have to run at such a low temperature. They can also be designed to accommodate your needs with a variety of mechanisms including pull/push side or end-openings as well as swing-in panels that can be fitted in gaps between shelving units

What We Do
Interior & Exterior
We can remove items from the interior, and place them in another unit or temporary cooler. Using a number of tools and equipment, we clean the shelves and surfaces. If we can remove any drawers and shelving, we do. The exterior of your unit also should be cleaned regularly. We believe it's important to use proper cleaning solutions and materials on a stainless steel exterior. We avoid using abrasive scrubbers or sponges as well as chlorine cleaners. If we need to remove grease or baked-on food, we have the appropriate regular and stainless steel degreasers.
Millwork
AES offers custom millwork as well! This includes resurfacing or manufacturing custom cabinetry, countertops, break rooms, and desks.
When you're looking to add a touch of class to your home or business, millwork is the way to go. Millwork is any type of woodworking or building where the materials are produced in a mill. This includes everything from doors, wood molding, window and door trim, wall paneling, crown moldings, and especially cabinetry! To be considered millwork, the finished product(s) must be built into a specific space otherwise it would be furniture.
Shelving
At AES we strive to help you, the grocery store owner, maximize your sales and make more money. We've got you covered with our universal shelf brackets, which consist of a metal piece that is able to be fastened to almost any case and then attached to your existing shelving. We can customize any type or color of metal or stainless steel, smooth or textured, as well as offer anything from a single shelf up to a complete unit with shelves in all different sizes!AES is your one-stop shop for high-quality, durable and customizable shelves. All of our shelf models were rigorously tested and built to last.
Gaskets
Gaskets are an essential part of a refrigerator. They prevent cool air from escaping and keep the unit cool. If a gasket is split or broken, it can ruin this crucial seal. When we inspect and service refrigerated cases with doors, we check each gasket to make sure that it is in good condition. If needed, we will recommend repairing any damaged parts so your unit stays running smoothly for years to come!
Drain Pans
If your drains are overflowing with moisture and sludge, they can emit a pungent odor throughout your grocery space. Excess grime also can cause drain tubes to clog. It is very important to check the tubing on your display cases every couple of months to prevent a significant blockage. When there is a major clog in your drainage hoses, it causes an overflow in your system that leaks onto your floor. If you notice calcium or water spots on the exterior of the hoses, give us a call if we can help!

Industry Fast Facts
Grocery Store Display Coolers
The Grocery Store industry is projected to post revenue of $928.6 billion in 2022. Grocery stores offer a wide range of staple and non-staple foods, as well as health and beauty aids, personal care items, and garden supplies. Customers typically find their desired products within the store through its inventory system, which displays an array of products from different vendors on shelves that are organized by product type or brand. Grocery stores typically maintain inventory at a low level due to high markups applied to most items sold in-store; this practice tends to limit opportunities for cross-selling efforts with other items. The industry does not maintain too many rules and regulations that can prevent industries from growing quickly over time; instead, it relies on company size or market share to compete against rivals.
Dirty Coolers Can't Hide
Customers may not know that a refrigerator case is dirty, but they can pick up on the telltale signs when they start to perform poorly. There could be puddling around the cooler frame from a clogged drain or overfull drip pan. You can stuff absorbent ‘pigs’ around the base of the equipment in an attempt to control or disguise leaks. There may be liquid sludge in the base of the cooler or dust cakes on the fins and fans.
Is your refrigeration equipment making your store smell bad? If so, it might be time for a refresh! We can clean and service any major brand of refrigeration equipment — including walk-ins, reach-ins, and display cases. Give your business a chance to shine with AES, a best-in-class company that can help with all of your display case situations.
