TCR13-CL-SS-DL-DR-DR-SpecProduct Description
The True TCR1/3 is a three-door undercounter refrigerator built to 1/1 Gastronorm standard dimensions. It is designed to sit beneath a prep surface and integrate cleanly into a working kitchen line, providing 630 litres of accessible chilled storage across three independently accessed compartments — without requiring a separate upright cabinet to achieve that volume.
In a busy service environment, what matters from a counter refrigerator is consistent temperature holding across a full shift, even during periods of frequent door opening. True units are well regarded in professional kitchens for maintaining stable internal conditions under exactly that kind of pressure. The three-door layout helps considerably here — staff open only the section they need, which limits cold air loss and reduces the recovery demand on the refrigeration system during peak service.
From an operational standpoint, this unit works well as the backbone of a structured mise en place setup. Key practical advantages include:
- Front-breathing ventilation removes the need for side or rear clearance
- Three separate compartments limit temperature fluctuation during service
- GN-compatible interior supports standard prep containers and inserts
- Stainless steel construction stands up to daily cleaning and heavy use
- Counter-height format doubles as a prep surface, consolidating workspace
Installation is straightforward by commercial refrigeration standards. The unit requires a standard mains electrical supply and adequate ventilation clearance at the front. There is no water connection or drainage requirement under normal operation. It is worth confirming the floor is level before positioning — correct levelling affects both door seal performance and internal condensate drainage.
This unit is well suited to small and mid-sized commercial kitchens: restaurant prep lines, café kitchens, deli counters, and hotel satellite kitchens where refrigeration needs to be immediately accessible without occupying upright cabinet space. For higher-volume operations or sites requiring greater capacity, a larger-format model would be worth considering.
If you are unsure whether this unit fits your service volume or kitchen layout, the team is happy to talk it through before you place an order.

TCR13-CL-SS-DL-DR-DR-SpecFrequently Asked Questions
- It performs reliably in mid-volume restaurant environments, particularly on prep lines where staff need fast, repeated access to chilled ingredients during service. In very high-volume kitchens with extended peak periods and a large brigade opening the unit constantly, you may find a higher-capacity or multi-section counter configuration offers more headroom — it is worth discussing your service pattern with the team to be sure.
- The unit requires a standard mains electrical connection and adequate clearance at the front for ventilation — the front-breathing design means no clearance is needed at the sides or rear. There is no water supply or drainage connection required under normal operation. Ensuring the floor is level before installation is important, as it affects door seal integrity and internal condensate management.
- Yes — the counter-height format is designed to sit beneath a standard prep surface or to function as one itself, which is one of the practical reasons operators choose undercounter refrigeration over upright cabinets on a working prep line. It consolidates cold storage and work surface into the same footprint, which is particularly useful in kitchens where space is limited.
