Novameta Open Frame 2000-6 for Professional Worktops

An open frame provides a rigid, freestanding base for stainless steel worktops in professional kitchens. Without sides or cupboards, the frame allows full access from all four edges, so staff can reach every corner of the work surface without obstruction. The four legs transfer the weight of the worktop and the food, utensils or equipment placed on it directly to the floor, preventing sag or flex under load.

The frame is assembled from tubular steel sections welded into a rectangular grid. This construction spreads the load evenly across the legs, so the worktop stays level even when unevenly loaded. Adjustable feet on each leg let the operator level the frame on uneven floors, ensuring the worktop remains stable and does not rock during use.

To install, the operator positions the frame on the kitchen floor, adjusts the feet until the frame is level, then lowers the stainless steel worktop onto the frame. The worktop is secured with screws or clamps that fasten to the frame's top rails, creating a single rigid unit. Once fixed, the worktop is ready for immediate use, with no additional assembly required.

The frame is built from mild steel with a powder-coated finish for corrosion resistance. The legs are tubular, and the cross-braces are welded to the legs at each corner, forming a single rigid structure. The adjustable feet are threaded into the base of each leg, allowing height adjustment within the stated range.

The controls consist of the four adjustable feet, each turned by hand to raise or lower that corner of the frame. No electrical or mechanical controls are fitted.

The 2000 mm length provides a continuous work surface for large trays, sheet pans or multiple smaller items. The 600 mm depth allows comfortable reach across the worktop without over-stretching. The adjustable height range of 835-900 mm accommodates standard worktop heights in professional kitchens, matching the height of adjacent counters, hobs or sinks for a seamless workflow. The footprint of 2000 x 600 mm defines the floor space the frame occupies, which must be clear and level before installation.

Cleaning is limited to wiping the frame with a damp cloth to remove dust or spills. The powder-coated finish resists moisture and detergents, so no special cleaning agents are required. The open design prevents dirt or debris from collecting in corners or crevices, simplifying daily upkeep.
