Hoshizaki Counter Fridges

The Hoshizaki Premier K 2 A5 DL DR is a two-door refrigerated counter unit designed for use in commercial kitchens where under-counter cold storage needs to sit within or alongside a working preparation line. It provides chilled storage beneath a usable worktop surface, keeping ingredients accessible at point of use without requiring staff to move away from the station.

Hoshizaki has a well-established reputation for refrigeration reliability in demanding environments, and this counter unit reflects that. The two-door configuration gives reasonable access across the width of the unit, and the castors allow repositioning without significant disruption — useful during deep cleaning or kitchen reconfiguration. For kitchens running continuous service, a refrigerated counter of this type reduces the number of trips to a remote cold store, which improves workflow and helps maintain consistent prep temperatures throughout service.

In practical terms, this unit suits kitchens where prep and service happen in close proximity. Key operational advantages include:

• Under-counter refrigeration keeps cold stock within arm's reach of the prep station
• Two independent door sections allow organised product separation by category or service section
• Castors allow repositioning for cleaning or layout changes without tools
• Hoshizaki's refrigeration systems are known for stable temperature holding under sustained kitchen conditions
• Worktop surface provides additional usable space directly above the storage area

Before ordering, it is worth confirming that your kitchen layout can accommodate the footprint and that the unit will fit through any access routes during delivery and installation. Ensure adequate ventilation clearance around the unit as per the manufacturer's requirements, and confirm the available electrical supply is compatible. If your site runs extended service hours or operates in a particularly warm kitchen environment, it is worth discussing refrigeration load with a specialist before selecting this or any counter unit.

This counter is well suited to small to medium commercial kitchens, cafés, and hospitality operations where prep-line cold storage is a priority. For higher-volume sites with greater storage demands, a larger-capacity counter or upright refrigeration cabinet may be a more appropriate choice.

The Hoshizaki Premier K 2 A DL 3D C U is a refrigerated counter unit combining two full-length doors with three under-counter drawers in a single worktop-height cabinet. With a 301-litre net internal capacity, it provides a practical split between larger storage space behind the doors and quick-access drawer storage for portioned or frequently used ingredients — all within the same footprint.

In a working kitchen, the combination of doors and drawers makes a genuine operational difference. Chefs can keep bulk prep or larger containers behind the doors while the drawers hold ready-to-use mise en place, minimising unnecessary movement and keeping the cold chain tighter during service. Hoshizaki refrigeration is well regarded for holding stable temperatures under repeated door openings, which matters during a busy lunch or dinner service when the unit is being accessed constantly.

From a practical standpoint, the unit offers several advantages in a prep or service environment:

• Drawer access reduces full door openings, helping temperature recovery
• Worktop surface doubles as usable prep space, adding functional value
• Castors allow repositioning for cleaning or kitchen reorganisation
• Combination layout suits kitchens where both bulk and portioned storage are needed simultaneously
• Hoshizaki build quality is generally reliable under sustained commercial use

The unit runs on castors, which simplifies cleaning underneath and allows repositioning if your kitchen layout changes. It is worth confirming your electrical supply is compatible before ordering, and ensuring you have adequate clearance around the unit for ventilation — particularly at the rear or base depending on condenser position. The worktop surface should be factored into your layout planning if you intend to use it as active prep space.

This counter suits mid-sized kitchens — restaurants, hotel kitchens, catering operations — where a single unit needs to serve both storage and prep functions without taking up multiple positions. It is less suited to very high-volume sites where separate dedicated cold storage and prep refrigeration may be more practical, or to very small operations where a simpler single-section unit would suffice.

If you would like to talk through whether this configuration fits your kitchen layout and service style, our team is happy to help you work that out before you commit.

The Hoshizaki Premier K 2 A DL DR C U is a two-door refrigerated counter unit designed for commercial kitchen prep and service environments. It combines a generous internal storage volume with a worktop surface, allowing kitchens to make use of the unit both for refrigerated ingredient storage and as an active preparation area during service.

Hoshizaki units are well regarded in the industry for consistent temperature maintenance and reliable long-term performance. The Premier K series is commonly used in busy kitchens where the refrigeration needs to keep pace with a steady throughput of covers — maintaining safe, stable temperatures even when the doors are opened frequently during peak service periods. The castors make it practical to reposition the unit for cleaning or to adapt the kitchen layout as operational needs change.

From an operational standpoint, a counter fridge of this type offers several practical advantages:

• Keeps refrigerated ingredients accessible at the point of preparation, reducing cross-kitchen movement during service
• The worktop surface doubles as prep space, helping to make efficient use of floor area
• Two-door configuration gives separate access points, which can suit kitchens where multiple team members need to work alongside each other
• Castors simplify deep cleaning underneath and around the unit
• Hoshizaki's refrigeration engineering tends to support reliable temperature recovery after door openings

In terms of installation, this is a self-contained refrigerated unit requiring a standard mains electrical connection. It is important to ensure adequate clearance at the rear and sides for ventilation — restricted airflow around the condenser will affect performance and longevity. The castors mean the unit is not fixed in position, but the kitchen layout should still account for the footprint and the need to keep ventilation clearances in place during operation. As with all commercial refrigeration, placement away from heat-generating equipment such as fryers or ovens will help the unit run efficiently.

This counter is well suited to small to medium commercial kitchens, café operations, and any environment where under-counter refrigeration combined with prep surface space is a practical requirement. For high-volume operations with heavier storage demands, a larger-capacity or multi-section configuration may be worth considering. Equally, for kitchens with very limited floor space, a single-door counter might be a better fit.

The Hoshizaki ACR-225DG-LLRR-RRC-C1 is a four-door refrigerated counter designed for commercial kitchens that need reliable chilled storage at the point of preparation. With four separate door sections across a single counter-height unit, it keeps ingredients accessible at the pass or prep station without requiring staff to move away from the service area.

Hoshizaki units are well regarded in professional kitchens for consistent temperature holding and robust build quality. A four-door configuration at counter level is particularly practical during busy service periods, as different sections can hold separate mise en place, reducing cross-contamination risk and keeping the workflow organised. The unit is suited to dairy, chilled garnishes, prepped proteins, and similar short-hold refrigerated ingredients.

From an operational standpoint, the key advantages of this style of unit include:

• Under-counter positioning keeps chilled prep within arm's reach during service
• Four individual door sections reduce temperature loss from single large door openings
• Counter-height top surface provides additional usable workspace above the unit
• Hoshizaki refrigeration systems are known for reliable temperature recovery after frequent door use
• Construction suited to the demanding cleaning cycles typical in commercial kitchens

Installation requires a mains electrical supply and adequate ventilation clearance around the unit — the exact requirements will depend on your kitchen layout and whether the unit is positioned in a run or as a standalone piece. The counter-height format makes it straightforward to integrate into an existing prep line, though it is worth confirming the available floor space and ventilation before ordering. Access for servicing the refrigeration components should also be considered at the planning stage.

This unit is well suited to mid-sized restaurant kitchens, hotel prep areas, and catering operations where four independent chilled zones at counter level would support a structured service workflow. For higher-volume operations or larger prep teams, a heavier-duty or wider configuration may be more appropriate. Equally, smaller kitchens with limited space may find a two-door counter sufficient.

The Hoshizaki Premier K 2A 3D 3D CU is a two-section refrigerated counter fitted with six drawers, offering a practical cold storage solution designed to sit directly within a prep or service line. Rather than relying on hinged doors that swing out into a busy kitchen, the drawer configuration allows staff to access ingredients at worktop level without stepping back or disrupting the flow of service. The unit runs on castors, making repositioning straightforward during cleaning or kitchen reorganisation.

Hoshizaki refrigeration is well regarded in commercial kitchens for consistent temperature holding and reliable day-to-day performance. The drawer format is particularly valued in high-throughput prep environments where chefs need to retrieve portioned ingredients quickly and repeatedly throughout a service. The counter-height worktop also provides usable preparation surface, which is a meaningful advantage in kitchens where every square metre counts.

Practical advantages of this unit include:

• Six-drawer layout supports ingredient separation and portion control across two sections
• Counter-height worktop adds usable prep surface directly above the cold storage
• Castors allow the unit to be moved for thorough cleaning beneath and behind
• Hoshizaki cooling systems are known for stable temperature recovery after repeated drawer openings
• A-rated energy classification helps keep running costs in check across long operating hours

As with any undercounter refrigeration, it is worth confirming that your kitchen has adequate ventilation clearance around the unit and that the available floor space accommodates the footprint comfortably. Drawer counters of this size are best suited to kitchens with an established prep line layout where the unit can be positioned close to the point of use. For lighter-demand environments, a smaller single-section drawer unit may be more appropriate; for larger brigades or higher-volume sites, a wider multi-section configuration may serve better.

This unit is well suited to busy restaurant kitchens, hotel prep areas, and catering operations where speed of access to chilled ingredients during service is a priority. The six-drawer layout makes it particularly practical for kitchens that work with a range of portioned or prepped items that benefit from being kept separate and immediately to hand.

If you are weighing up whether the drawer count, section layout, or capacity is the right fit for how your kitchen operates, we are happy to talk it through before you commit to anything.

The Hoshizaki Premier K 3 A5 DL DL DR C U is a three-section refrigerated counter designed for commercial prep and service environments. Built around a GN 1/1 worktop configuration, it combines a practical work surface with refrigerated storage directly underneath, keeping ingredients close to hand without requiring additional reach-in cabinets elsewhere in the kitchen. The unit runs on castors, allowing it to be repositioned for cleaning or reconfigured as kitchen workflows change.

In a working kitchen, this type of counter tends to prove its value during service. Chefs can work directly from the drawers and doors below rather than moving across the kitchen to a separate cold store, which reduces temperature abuse of perishable ingredients and keeps prep times tighter. The three-section layout means different ingredient categories can be separated — proteins, dairy, and prepared garnishes, for example — without mixing zones that can create cross-contamination risks. Hoshizaki's refrigeration systems are well regarded for temperature stability, which matters when a unit is being opened repeatedly across a busy lunch or dinner service.

• Three separate door sections keep ingredient zones clearly divided during service
• GN 1/1 worktop surface integrates prep space with cold storage
• Castor-mounted base simplifies repositioning and daily cleaning beneath the unit
• Consistent refrigeration performance helps protect perishables under frequent door openings
• Practical for reducing unnecessary movement across the kitchen during peak periods

From an installation standpoint, refrigerated counters of this type require a suitable electrical supply and adequate ventilation around the condenser. The unit needs clearance at the rear and ideally overhead to allow heat to dissipate — fitting it into a tightly enclosed alcove without airflow can affect performance and longevity. The castor height is included in the overall height figure, so check ceiling clearance and extraction hood positioning before ordering. Weight should be considered when planning floor loading for the intended position.

This counter is well suited to mid-sized restaurants, hotel kitchens, and contract catering operations where a structured prep line is important. It works best where the team benefits from having refrigerated storage integrated into the working surface rather than separated from it. For very high-volume operations running extended service periods across multiple sections, a larger or more heavy-duty configuration may be worth considering. Equally, smaller sites with limited floor space may find a two-door alternative a more proportionate fit.

Hoshizaki units are well regarded in professional kitchens for their stable temperature holding and reliable compressor performance. A counter of this size handles the demands of a busy service period comfortably — keeping ingredients at consistent temperature even when the doors are opened frequently during peak hours. The worktop surface adds useful prep space above, making it practical for kitchens where bench space is at a premium.

From an operational standpoint, the three-section layout allows for logical ingredient organisation and reduces cross-contamination risk by separating product types. Key practical advantages include:

• Consistent temperature recovery after repeated door openings during service
• Worktop surface extends usable prep area on the line
• Three independent sections support organised, HACCP-friendly storage
• Castors allow the unit to be repositioned or moved for cleaning
• Robust Hoshizaki build quality suited to daily commercial kitchen use

The unit is supplied on castors, which simplifies repositioning and makes cleaning beneath and around it more straightforward. As a counter-height refrigerated unit, it will need to be sited with access to the appropriate electrical supply and positioned to allow adequate ventilation around the condenser. Kitchens with restricted rear clearance should check ventilation requirements before installation.

This counter is well suited to mid- to high-volume kitchens — restaurants, hotel kitchens, contract catering operations, and similar environments where reliable, accessible refrigeration on the prep line is a priority. For smaller operations with less demanding throughput requirements, a single- or two-door counter may offer a more proportionate solution. For very high-volume sites or central production kitchens with greater cold storage demands, a larger undercounter or upright cabinet arrangement may be worth considering.

The Hoshizaki ACR-180DG-LRR-RRC-C1 is a three-door refrigerated counter unit offering 457 litres of internal storage across three independently accessed sections. It sits at worktop height, providing chilled storage directly within the prep or service line without requiring staff to move away from their station. The counter-depth format makes it practical in kitchens where space is measured carefully and workflow continuity matters.

Hoshizaki equipment is well regarded in commercial kitchens for consistent temperature holding, and this unit is designed to maintain stable conditions through busy service periods. The three-door configuration allows different sections to be used for different produce categories, reducing cross-contamination risk and helping staff locate ingredients quickly under pressure. Counter refrigeration at this capacity is commonly used in mid-to-high volume restaurants, hotel kitchens, and contract catering operations where prep and service run in close proximity.

From a practical standpoint, the key operational advantages of this unit include:

• Three separate door sections keeping temperature loss to a minimum when one section is accessed
• Counter-height worktop surface usable as additional prep space
• Accessible cold storage positioned directly on the service or prep line
• Hoshizaki's refrigeration system, known for reliability under sustained daily use
• Design suited to dairy, prepared garnishes, and short-term ingredient holding

Installation requires a suitable power supply and adequate clearance for ventilation — this should be confirmed before the unit is positioned, particularly in enclosed counter runs. As with all refrigerated equipment, the ambient temperature of the kitchen will influence performance, so placement away from high-heat appliances such as ovens or grills is advisable where possible.

This unit suits kitchens with a consistent daily service volume that need reliable, accessible refrigeration at the line. For very high-throughput operations or sites requiring greater total capacity, it is worth considering whether a larger or additional unit would better meet demand. Equally, smaller operations may find a one- or two-door counter sufficient for their needs.
