Kubus Drop-In Multideck Self-Service Chilled Display 1175mm

The Kubus 1175mm drop-in multideck is a self-service refrigerated display unit designed to sit within a countertop or service counter installation. It holds chilled food and drink at a consistent temperature suitable for safe food service, with customer-facing access to three toughened glass shelves and a chilled well beneath. The unit is supplied with double-glazed hinged rear doors for restocking, a flat toughened glass sneeze screen to the front, and side glass panels — a practical configuration for open food service settings where hygiene and product visibility both matter.

In a working environment, this style of display is commonly used at deli counters, food-to-go operations, staff restaurants, and anywhere refrigerated self-service is part of the service model. The shelves are adjustable in both height and angle, which allows the display to accommodate different product formats across a service period. Each shelf features a product stop and a ticket strip along the front edge — useful for labelling and pricing without obstructing the product. A digital temperature display is positioned at eye level on the gantry, with a lockable control panel to the operator side, keeping settings secure during service.

From an operational standpoint, several features reduce the day-to-day burden on kitchen and front-of-house teams:

• Modular removable deck plates simplify cleaning and end-of-day breakdown
• An integral condensate evaporator removes the need for a site drain connection
• R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant offers lower environmental impact and can reduce running costs over time
• The underslung condensing unit keeps the footprint compact and the display profile clean
• Diffused shelf and gantry lighting presents chilled product clearly without harsh hotspots

Installation requires careful planning. The unit is designed for drop-in countertop fitting, and correct installation of the supplied air inlet grills and rear ventilation is essential — the underslung condensing unit depends on adequate airflow to perform reliably. The unit is supplied with a 2-metre lead and plug top, so no dedicated electrical circuit is required in most cases, though the counter itself must be built to accommodate the unit's footprint and weight. At 170kg, handling during installation will need appropriate equipment and resource. There is no requirement for a site drainage connection thanks to the condensate evaporator, which simplifies the installation somewhat.

This unit is well suited to food-to-go counters, cafés, staff restaurants, delis, and similar settings where customers self-select chilled products. It is best suited to moderate-volume operations where throughput is steady rather than extremely high — for higher-volume or larger-format sites, a wider or multi-section configuration may be worth considering. Equally, for smaller counters or tighter footprints, a narrower unit from the same range may be more appropriate.

If you are planning a counter build-out or are unsure whether this unit suits your service model and countertop specification, the team is happy to talk it through before you commit.
