A pair of doors are engageable with the opening to close same and a floor is formed of upper and lower skins and a body of insulation therebetween. The floor extends horizontally longitudinally from the door sill to the front end wall and bridges the two side walls. It is recessed below an upper edge of the door sill. A plurality of longitudinally extending rails fixed to the top door skin define a plurality of longitudinally extending air-conducting passage and have an upper surface level with the upper edge of the door sill.
