Product Description
The Williams Jade LJC2-SA is a two-door under-counter freezer designed to hold frozen stock at prep level, close to where it is needed. The 317-litre interior is divided across two independently sealed sections, giving kitchen teams organised access to different frozen ingredients without stepping away from the preparation line. Williams' Jade range has built a solid reputation in professional kitchens for consistent temperature holding and day-to-day reliability under sustained use.
In a working kitchen, the unit maintains stable freezing temperatures even when doors are opened repeatedly during a busy service. The airflow design distributes cold air evenly throughout the cabinet, reducing the risk of warm spots forming near the door openings. Recovery after access is prompt, which is important in kitchens where frozen stock is being drawn from regularly throughout the day. The front-breathing refrigeration system allows the unit to be installed flush to a wall or within a run of counters without requiring rear clearance.
From an operational standpoint, the Jade counter offers several practical advantages:
- CoolSmart digital controller displays current temperature and triggers visual alarms if conditions drift, supporting due diligence records.
- Self-closing doors with magnetic gaskets maintain a reliable seal and reduce the risk of temperature drift from a partially open door.
- Stainless steel exterior withstands the knocks and cleaning routines typical of a busy kitchen environment.
- Removable racking simplifies cleaning and allows storage to be arranged around different product sizes.
- Quiet operation makes the unit well suited to open kitchen and pass-adjacent prep areas.
Installation is straightforward for a unit of this type. The front-breathing design removes the need for rear or side ventilation clearance, which is useful where space is tight. The unit requires a standard single-phase electrical supply. Ensure the floor is level and capable of bearing the loaded weight, and if fitting into a run of cabinetry, confirm the finished height aligns with your worktop specification before ordering.
This counter is well suited to small and medium-sized operations — cafés, bistros, pub kitchens, hotel prep areas, and similar environments where under-counter frozen storage is needed at the point of use. It works particularly well where the worktop above the unit doubles as active prep space. For larger operations requiring greater frozen storage capacity across a single run, a larger counter configuration or an upright freezer cabinet is likely to be a more practical solution.
If you are weighing up whether this unit is the right fit for your kitchen layout or service volume, the team is glad to talk it through before you make a decision.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes — the LJC2-SA is well suited to smaller commercial operations where under-counter frozen storage is needed close to the prep area. The two-door layout gives a useful degree of organisation without occupying the footprint of a larger counter, making it a practical choice for kitchens where space is limited but frozen stock access needs to be efficient during service.
- The front-breathing refrigeration system draws and expels air from the front of the unit, so rear and side clearance is not required in the same way as a conventionally vented cabinet. This makes it easier to fit into a run of counters or install flush against a wall. It is still worth confirming with your installer that air circulation at the front grille will not be obstructed by floor-level kickboards or adjacent equipment.
- The Jade counter is designed to handle the repeated door access that comes with active prep work. The enhanced airflow system distributes cold air evenly throughout the cabinet, and temperature recovery after door opening is prompt. For kitchens where frozen stock is being accessed very heavily and continuously — high-volume production or large-scale catering — it is worth discussing whether a higher-capacity counter or upright unit would give more headroom.
