Upright Double Door Fridges
When a single-door unit no longer meets your inventory demands, our Upright Double Door Fridges provide the high-capacity cooling your busy kitchen requires. These units are designed for large-scale operations, offering expansive shelving and easy organization for bulk ingredients. At Connacht Catering, we select double-door models that feature powerful forced-air cooling to ensure consistent temperatures across all levels, even with frequent access. Built with heavy-duty stainless steel and high-performance compressors, these fridges are the ultimate solution for restaurants, hotels, and hospitals needing reliable, large-volume chilled storage without compromising on floor efficiency.
How to Choose the Right Upright Double Door Fridges
Capacity and accessibility are the primary factors here. Measure your kitchen access points (doors and hallways) to ensure the unit can be delivered and installed easily. Look for models with individual door sections to minimize cold air loss when retrieving items. Consider "split-door" designs if you want to further increase energy efficiency. Check for internal lighting and adjustable shelving that can accommodate GN 2/1 pans. Lastly, ensure the unit has lockable castors for easy cleaning underneath and a digital controller for precise temperature monitoring required by HACCP standards.

Shelf Loading: Distribute weight evenly across shelves to avoid bowing and ensure proper airflow.
