What can Chef Base Refrigerators do for you?
Chef base refrigerators are essential equipment for restaurants, food trucks, hotel kitchens, and any operation that values efficiency and space optimization. These units combine two vital kitchen functions—cold food storage and cooking equipment support—into one convenient footprint, helping streamline operations and maximize productivity in busy commercial kitchens.
Cold Storage at Your Station
Chef bases feature refrigerated drawers that provide easy-access cold storage directly beneath your cooking equipment. Store proteins, sauces, garnishes, or prepared ingredients right where you need them, reducing trips across the kitchen and keeping your cook line running smoothly.
Durable Cooking Surface
The top of a chef base is designed to support heavy countertop cooking equipment like griddles, ranges, and charbroilers. Built with reinforced stainless steel, these worktops are engineered to handle high heat and constant use without warping or wearing down.
Precise Temperature Control
Many models feature digital thermostats and self-contained refrigeration systems to ensure ingredients stay consistently chilled between 33°F and 40°F, even in hot kitchen environments. Some models are equipped with drawer gaskets and forced-air refrigeration for even temperature distribution.
Multiple Sizes and Drawer Configurations
Whether you need two drawers or four, shallow drawers for small pans or deep drawers for full-size hotel pans, chef base refrigerators come in a range of sizes and layouts to fit your space and menu.
Built for Commercial Use
Chef bases are constructed with heavy-duty stainless steel exteriors and interiors, designed for easy cleaning and long-term durability. Locking casters are often included, making it easy to reposition units as your kitchen layout changes.
