Heating Cupboard with Sliding Door H-810 mm

A heating cupboard keeps plated dishes at serving temperature without drying or overcooking. The unit circulates warm air evenly around each plate, maintaining food at the precise point between holding and reheating. Sliding doors eliminate the swing space of hinged doors, making the cupboard easier to fit into tight kitchen layouts and reducing heat loss when opened during service. The operator loads plates onto the wire racks, sets the desired temperature between 30 °C and 90 °C, and closes the door. Once the cupboard reaches the set point, the internal fan distributes heat across every shelf, ensuring consistent warmth from the first plate to the last. The sliding mechanism allows quick access without disrupting the airflow, so each dish stays at the chosen temperature until it is needed on the pass. The exterior is stainless steel, chosen for durability and ease of cleaning in a busy kitchen. The interior also uses stainless steel, which reflects heat evenly and resists corrosion from steam and food acids. The sliding door runs on concealed tracks, reducing the risk of damage and simplifying maintenance. Controls consist of a temperature dial that adjusts the heat output between 30 °C and 90 °C. The power rating of 1.6 kW for models up to 1300 mm and 2.0 kW for larger units determines the electrical load on the kitchen circuit. A 230 V supply matches the standard single-phase connection found in most professional kitchens, allowing the cupboard to be installed without additional wiring. The footprint of 540 mm or 640 mm depth and 810 mm height fits under standard worktops, while the adjustable length from 1000 mm to 1600 mm allows the cupboard to be sized to the available space. The weight of the unit, though not specified, is designed for floor-standing use, with no need for wall mounting or additional support. The smooth aluminium runners let you slide the door open with one hand while holding a hot tray of freshly baked rolls, keeping the heat inside until the last plate is served. The wire racks can be removed for thorough cleaning, and the sliding tracks should be kept free of debris to ensure smooth operation. No additional maintenance is required beyond regular checks of the door mechanism and temperature calibration. Two variants are available: a 540 mm deep model and a 640 mm deep model, the latter priced approximately 15% higher. Both share the same height and length range, allowing the cupboard to be matched to the kitchen's workflow and storage needs. The product is listed in the BHS professional catering catalogue under heating and holding equipment.
