This is the least glamorous family and the one that gets used hardest. In a working kitchen the top of the cabinet is a prep surface, the doors are opened with a hip while both hands are full, and the gasket is expected to survive steam, fat and daily washing.
So the build decisions are: stainless grade and sheet thickness, hinge and gasket quality, and whether the airflow actually reaches the pans at the back. A four-door cabinet that only cools the front row is a false economy in a busy service.
Typical installations: restaurant and hotel kitchens, central kitchens, catering commissaries, bakery production, staff canteens.
Fan-assisted evaporator distribution so the rear row of pans is as cold as the front row.
Doors close themselves from a half-open position; the magnetic gasket swaps without replacing the door.
Shelves or pan slides positioned to the gastronorm depth you use, not a fixed default.
All-chiller, all-freezer, or a split cabinet with chiller doors and freezer doors in one frame.
Run-tested for the destination market before packing.
Castors for kitchens that move equipment for cleaning; feet where the cabinet is fixed.
These are the bands we build within. A final model sheet with exact dimensions, volume, refrigerant charge and loading quantity is issued with every quotation.
| Parameter | Standard configuration | Options / notes |
|---|---|---|
| Temperature range | Chiller 0 to +8 °C / Freezer -18 to -22 °C | Set at the factory, adjustable by controller |
| Door configuration | 4 doors (2 x 2) or 6 doors (3 x 2) | Single or dual temperature |
| Interior | GN 2/1 compatible | Pan slides or shelves |
| Cooling | Forced air, auto-defrost | Separate evaporator per compartment on dual-temp |
| Body | Stainless steel 201 standard, 304 optional | Galvanised back panel |
| Insulation | PU foam, high density | Thicker on freezer builds |
| Controller | Digital with temperature display | Alarm option on request |
| Refrigerant | R290 / R134a | Confirmed per model and destination |
| Doors | Solid, self-closing, lockable | Left/right handed as required |
| Voltage | 220-240 V 50 Hz / 110-120 V 60 Hz | 220 V 60 Hz also available |
| HS code | 8418.10 | Combined refrigerator-freezers, separate external doors |
Anything on this list is a configuration, not a new product — which is why it does not need a new mould.
Not necessarily. Dual-temperature builds put chiller doors and freezer doors in one frame with separate evaporators. Tell us the mix of chilled and frozen storage you need and we will size the split.
201 is adequate for dry kitchen environments and is the cost-controlled choice. 304 is the right answer for washdown, coastal sites and anything that will be steam-cleaned daily.
For a small kitchen, often yes — a six-door cabinet holds a working day of prep without the room. For bulk storage it is not a substitute, and we will say so.
The cabinet is built to GN 2/1 dimensions. Pans are normally sourced locally by the buyer because freight on empty pans rarely pays.
Send the menu volume, the split between chilled and frozen storage, and the floor space available. We will size the door count and the temperature split.
