Designline Drop-In Slimline Multideck 600mm with Rear Door

The Designline Slimline Drop-In Multideck is a chilled self-service display unit designed to be built into an existing counter or servery run. At 600mm wide, it is a compact format that suits operations where counter space is limited but product presentation still needs to work hard — patisseries, deli counters, café bars, and hotel buffet serveries are the most common settings. Three adjustable shelves allow chilled items to be displayed at practical angles, whether that is individual pastries, prepared salads, cold beverages, or pre-packed goods.

The unit operates on R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant, which carries a significantly lower global warming potential than older refrigerant types. An integral water evaporator means no site drain connection is required, which removes one of the more common installation complications in retrofit counter projects. Curved toughened glass across the front keeps product clearly visible without restricting the airflow needed to maintain consistent chilled temperatures throughout service.

In practice, the rear door is one of the most operationally useful features of this unit. Restocking from behind the display during live service avoids disrupting customers browsing at the front — something that matters considerably on a busy café floor or active buffet run. Removable deck plates make end-of-day cleaning manageable, and lockable castors allow repositioning between services while keeping the unit secure during use.

• Rear door access allows restocking during service without customer disruption
• Integral water evaporator removes the need for a site drainage connection
• R290 refrigerant offers reduced environmental impact versus older refrigerant gases
• Removable deck plates simplify routine cleaning and end-of-day maintenance
• Lockable castors allow repositioning between services and stable placement during use

Because this is a drop-in unit, it must be specified to fit within an existing counter void — the overall dimensions should be cross-referenced carefully against your counter structure before committing. At 145kg, floor loading and delivery access into the final position are both worth confirming in advance. This product is special to order and non-returnable, so taking time to verify the counter void dimensions at the outset is essential rather than optional.

This unit is well suited to smaller hospitality and retail operations running a focused chilled display — independent cafés, patisseries, farm shops, and boutique hotel serveries. For operations needing greater display volume or higher product throughput, a wider or deeper configuration is likely to serve better. Where a longer counter run is being fitted out with multiple drop-in units, the slimline footprint of this model can work well as part of a combined layout.

If you are working through a counter specification or are unsure whether this unit is the right fit for your service setup, the team is glad to talk it through with you before you order.
