Novameta Double Wall Shelf for Professional Kitchens, 1000 mm

A double-tier wall shelf creates organised storage above the worktop without taking floor space. Each shelf is fixed to the wall with brackets, leaving the area below clear for trolleys, bins or mobile equipment. The two shelves are spaced vertically so that trays, containers and ingredients can be stacked without blocking access to the lower level. This arrangement keeps frequently used items within reach while freeing up worktop and cupboard space in a busy kitchen.

The shelf is mounted to the wall with brackets that transfer the weight directly to the wall structure. This method avoids the need for legs or a base, so the floor remains unobstructed and easy to clean. The brackets are set at a standardised spacing to match common wall stud positions, ensuring a secure fit without additional reinforcement in most professional kitchens.

Each shelf is loaded from the front, with the weight distributed evenly across the surface. The 500 mm depth allows standard gastronorm trays and containers to sit fully on the shelf without overhang. The 1000 mm width provides space for multiple items side by side, reducing the need for frequent restocking during service. The 666 mm height between the floor and the lower shelf, and between the two shelves, is sufficient for most catering containers and stacked ingredients.

The construction is stainless steel throughout, including the shelves and brackets. Stainless steel resists corrosion from steam, splashes and cleaning chemicals, and does not absorb odours or stains. The surface is smooth and seamless, with no crevices where dirt or bacteria can collect, making it suitable for food-safe environments.

The shelf is controlled by its mounting: once fixed to the wall, it requires no further adjustment or operation. The load capacity of 40 kg per shelf allows it to hold bulk ingredients, small appliances or stacks of crockery without bending or sagging. This capacity is calculated for a uniformly distributed load, so heavy items should be placed centrally and spread across the width.

The 1000 mm width means the shelf occupies a full metre of wall space, which should be planned alongside other wall-mounted equipment such as hobs, taps or extractor hoods. The 500 mm depth projects from the wall, so it must be positioned where it will not interfere with door swings, walkways or other workstations. The 666 mm height allows clearance for most standard kitchen equipment and containers, but taller items may require adjustment of the shelf spacing or a different configuration.

Cleaning is straightforward: the smooth stainless steel surface can be wiped down with a damp cloth and standard kitchen sanitiser. The lack of legs or a base means there are no hidden areas where dirt can accumulate, and the wall behind the shelf remains accessible for regular cleaning. The brackets are designed to be unobtrusive, with no sharp edges or complex shapes that would trap debris.

This model is a double shelf unit with fixed dimensions and load capacity. No variants or adjustable options are supplied for this article.
