The invention provides a mechanical solution as to how a shuttle device may move between different temperature zones in an automated warehouse and still maintain the temperature in each temperature zone. A mechanical solution is provided to operate the doors separating the temperature zones. The doors are designed to close access openings between two modules and the openings are of such size that the shuttle can move through the opening. The doors are equipped with wheels and they are capable of moving along the same rails as the warehouse shuttle. The shuttle thus can push the door in front of it while exiting one module and entering another module. The shuttle can pull the door back to its place and thus close the opening between the modules when returning back to the first module.
