Hot Cupboards

Traditionally hot cupboards would be fixed units in the kitchen into which plated hot meals would be placed in stacks separated by a plate ring with a top cover on top to help prevent drying out.

Improved flexibility and more versatile

While fixed hot cupboards are still widely available, they are much more versatile if they are on castors with a brake mechanism. The shelving arrangement can be flexible, with many shelves to take single plates or to use the stacking system. Gastronorm size compatibility is useful for keeping batches of food warm.

Solid work tops and bain marie tops

The top can be a solid work surface or have dry or wet heated bains marie so that things such as sauces, gravy or custard can be added at the point of delivery to prevent skinning. Ease of cleaning is very important, as food debris not wiped up is a serious food hygiene risk. There is often a range of accessories for hot cupboards, including tray slides, sneeze screens and digital temperature displays.
