Novameta Open Frame 1600-6 for Professional Catering Worktops

An open frame forms the base for professional catering worktops, stands and mobile units. Without sides or cupboards, it leaves the space beneath the work surface clear for trolleys, bins or foot traffic, while the four legs carry the load of heavy equipment such as mixers, slicers or bain-maries. The frame itself does not heat, cool or power anything; it simply holds the work surface at a comfortable working height and transfers the weight directly to the floor.

The operator positions the frame where the worktop or appliance is needed, adjusts the legs to level the unit on uneven floors, then lowers the work surface or appliance onto the frame. Once the bolts or clamps are tightened, the frame becomes the rigid support for the entire assembly. No further controls or settings are required; the frame remains in place until the kitchen layout is reorganised.

Constructed from steel, the frame is finished in a durable coating to resist corrosion in a busy kitchen environment. The four legs are adjustable between 835 mm and 900 mm, allowing the worktop height to be set to match adjacent counters or to suit the operator's preference. The footprint of 1600 mm by 600 mm provides a stable platform for standard catering worktops and countertop appliances.

The adjustable height range means the frame can support worktops at the standard height for food preparation, or slightly lower for tasks that require more leverage. The 1600 mm length accommodates most professional worktops, while the 600 mm depth keeps the unit within the footprint of standard kitchen aisles. The open design allows easy access for cleaning beneath the worktop, and the steel construction can be wiped down with a damp cloth to remove dust or spills.

This frame is designed to support Novameta worktops and compatible catering equipment, providing a sturdy, adaptable base for professional kitchen layouts.
