Commercial Refrigerated Counters & Under-Counter Fridges
Kings Catering supplies commercial refrigerated counters built for professional kitchens, cafés, restaurants and catering operations. Some buyers search for this type of unit as a commercial under-counter fridge, and both terms describe the same core idea: refrigerated storage housed beneath a practical worktop.
Our range covers different counter configurations, sizes, and storage options so you can match the unit to your kitchen layout rather than reshaping your kitchen around it. Whether you need a compact two-door counter for a small prep area or a larger four-door model with greater chilled storage capacity.
Commercial Refrigerated Counters for Professional Kitchens
A commercial refrigerated counter combines chilled storage with a worktop-height unit, giving you cold storage and usable workspace in a single footprint. That's the key difference from a domestic under-counter fridge, which is built for occasional home use rather than the pace, hygiene standards and daily wear of a commercial kitchen.
Our range includes stainless-steel refrigerated counters in various widths, depths and configurations, so you can choose equipment that fits your available space and matches your storage needs. Whether you're setting up a new commercial kitchen or replacing ageing commercial refrigeration, you'll find a commercial counter fridge or commercial undercounter fridge that suits the job.
Choose the Right Commercial Under-Counter Fridge Configuration
Kitchens vary in size, layout and menu, so we stock refrigerated counters across a range of configurations. Here's how to find the best option for your kitchen.
• 2-, 3- and 4-Door Refrigerated Counters
Door count is really about storage capacity. A 2-door counter suits smaller kitchens or lower-volume prep areas, while 3- and 4-door models give busier kitchens more chilled storage without eating up extra floor space. Rather than picking a unit based on door numbers alone, think about how much stock you need to hold at any one time and how much floor space you can spare, then work back from there.
• Different Sizes and Counter Options
Our refrigerated counters are available in approximately 600, 660, 700 and 760 mm configurations, with a range of heights and widths to choose from. You can also select between:
• No-worktop configurations
• Splashback options
• Glass doors on selected models
• Different internal storage configurations
Whether you're after a 600 mm commercial under-counter fridge for a tight galley kitchen, a 700 mm refrigerated counter for a larger prep line, or a commercial refrigerated counter with a worktop for extra workspace, there's a configuration to match. If you need a commercial counter fridge with splashback for wall-mounted installation, that's covered too.
Built for Commercial Kitchen Use
Every unit in the range is built with day-to-day commercial kitchen use in mind, not just cold storage on paper.
Construction is stainless steel throughout, including AISI 304 stainless steel on applicable models, which stands up to constant cleaning and heavy daily use. Rounded internal corners and removable components make cleaning quicker and help you maintain hygiene standards with minimal effort.
On applicable standard refrigerated-counter models, you get a 0°C to +10°C temperature range, ventilated refrigeration, automatic defrost and automatic condensate evaporation, so the unit looks after itself rather than adding another task to your kitchen routine.
Practical Refrigeration and Temperature Control
Digital temperature controls let you monitor and adjust conditions with confidence, so you always know your stock is being held at a safe, consistent temperature.
Selected models use R290 refrigerant, an efficient and environmentally considerate choice, though this feature applies to relevant models rather than the entire range. For kitchens running hot, selected models are rated Climate Class 5, meaning they're built to perform reliably in ambient conditions up to 40°C, which matters if your unit sits near ovens, fryers or other heat sources.
Flexible Storage for Busy Foodservice Environments
Internal layout matters as much as external dimensions when you're working at pace. Selected models accommodate GN 1/1 containers, with adjustable and removable guides and racks that let you organise ingredients and prepared food in a way that suits your workflow.
If visibility is important, our glass-door models let staff see stock levels at a glance without opening the door. Certain configurations can also be fitted with drawers, giving you another way to organise chilled storage and keep your line moving.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is a commercial refrigerated counter the same as an under-counter fridge?

It's therefore worth checking the dimensions, storage configuration and features of the model you're interested in.
2. What temperature do commercial refrigerated counters operate at?
Many of our standard refrigerated counter models operate in the 0°C to +10°C range, but the range can vary by product, so always check the individual specifications before ordering.

Our range includes 600, 660, 700, and 760 models, with exact dimensions varying by product and configuration. Different widths, heights, and door options are also available. Check the individual product specification to make sure the model fits your kitchen layout.
