Frozen Storage for Tight Spaces
Under-counter freezers fit where larger units don’t. You slide them under a bench and keep frozen stock close without losing work space.
Most kitchens use them for portions they reach for often. You open the door, grab what you need and carry on. It feels natural after a few days.
The capacity is small. Enough for a shift or two. You top them up when things slow down. I’ve seen sites keep the same few items inside so nothing gets buried. Keeps the routine simple.
They run steadily if the door isn’t open for long. Cleaning is quick. Empty it, check the seals and wipe the interior. That’s the whole job.
