Sterling Pro BBS220HINGED Double Door Hinged Bottle Cooler 223Ltr

The Sterling Pro BBS220HINGED is a double-door hinged bottle cooler designed to sit under or behind a bar counter, keeping bottled drinks at consistent serving temperatures throughout service. With 223 litres of usable capacity split across two sections, it offers a practical level of accessible stock storage without demanding an excessive footprint in a working bar environment.

In a busy bar or hospitality setting, what matters most is reliable temperature holding during peak service. The self-closing doors help maintain cabinet temperature when staff are moving quickly and aren't always focused on closing the unit behind them, and the lockable doors add a useful layer of stock security at close-down or in venues with shared back-of-bar access. LED internal lighting makes stock identification quick during a busy shift without contributing meaningfully to the heat load inside the cabinet.

From a day-to-day operational standpoint, the BBS220HINGED offers several practical advantages:

• Adjustable shelving accommodates different bottle sizes and product ranges
• Self-closing doors reduce temperature loss during high-traffic service periods
• Lockable doors protect stock at close-down or in shared-access environments
• LED lighting supports fast stock identification without adding heat inside the cabinet
• Black exterior sits cleanly within most bar back-fits without drawing attention

Installation is straightforward for an under-counter position. The unit requires a standard UK mains supply and adequate ventilation clearance — particularly at the rear — to allow the refrigeration system to dissipate heat effectively. Positioning in enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces will reduce efficiency and place unnecessary strain on the compressor over time. As with any floor-level refrigeration unit, a level surface is important for door alignment and seal performance.

This cooler is well suited to small to mid-sized bars, pub back bars, hotel hospitality areas, and similar front-of-house environments where a compact, reliable under-counter chiller is needed. For operations running higher throughput or a broader bottle range, it is worth considering whether a wider or higher-capacity unit would better serve the volume required.

If you're weighing up whether this unit fits your bar layout or service pattern, the team is glad to talk it through before you commit.
