Over Deli Counter
Our Over Deli Counters (Serve-overs) are the centerpiece of any deli, butcher shop, or cafeteria. They provide a hygienic barrier while offering a stunning horizontal display for meats, cheeses, and prepared salads. Connacht Catering’s range focuses on maximizing the "display deck" area and using high-visibility glass to put your products front and center. With built-in refrigerated under-storage for easy restocking and a sturdy rear work shelf for slicing and weighing, these counters are designed to facilitate fast-paced service while keeping your most perishable items at food-safe temperatures.
How to Choose the Right Over Deli Counter
Decide between "static" or "ventilated" cooling. Static cooling is better for uncovered fresh meat as it doesn't dry the product out, whereas ventilated cooling is better for pre-packaged items or salads. Measure your floor space carefully, considering the "opening" required for rear doors or tilting front glass for cleaning. Look for units with ambient intermediate shelves for non-refrigerated add-ons. Finally, choose a style—curved glass offers a traditional look, while flat glass is increasingly popular for modern, minimalist shop designs.
Care & Maintenance
-
Deck Cleaning: Remove all display trays and deep-clean the refrigerated deck daily to prevent juice buildup.
-
Glass Handling: Clean both sides of the glass with specialized cleaners; use caution with tilt-forward glass mechanisms.
-
Ambient Shelf Dusting: Keep non-refrigerated shelves free of dust to maintain a high-end food environment.
-
Drainage Check: Ensure the internal evaporation tray is emptied or the drain line is clear of food particles.
