Product Description
This is a free-standing stainless steel centre bench designed specifically to accommodate under-counter equipment beneath the worktop. Rather than a fixed storage shelf, the void beneath the bench is left clear, allowing refrigeration units, dishwashers, or other under-counter equipment to sit flush within the bench run. It is part of the Quick Service fabrication range, which is built to standard commercial kitchen dimensions and intended to work alongside matching benches, wall tables, and other stainless fabrications from the same series.
The bench is constructed with a 304-grade stainless steel worktop and a 430-grade box section framework, fully welded throughout. The worktop features a 50mm downstand to each edge, which helps contain spillage and adds rigidity to the surface. Legs are inset at the front, rear, and ends, keeping the footprint tidy and reducing obstruction in tighter passageways. Flanged levelling feet allow the bench to be mechanically fixed to the floor and adjusted to suit uneven surfaces or to align with adjacent equipment.
In practical terms, this bench suits kitchens where the prep surface and equipment housing need to work as a single unit rather than as separate pieces. It is commonly used in counter runs where a refrigerated prep unit or under-counter appliance sits beneath the worktop, avoiding the gap or height mismatch that can occur when trying to combine off-the-shelf components.
- Available in three depths to suit different counter configurations
- Void depth closely matches the overall bench depth, maximising usable equipment space
- Matching height to most standard back-counter and pass configurations
- Fully welded construction for stability under daily kitchen use
- Can be mechanically fixed to the floor for added safety
This bench is well suited to small and medium-sized commercial kitchens, cafés, and food service operations where under-counter equipment needs to integrate cleanly into a prep run. For sites with heavier fabrication requirements or where bespoke sizing is needed, it is worth discussing your layout before ordering. If you are unsure which depth or length works best alongside your existing equipment, our team is happy to help you work through the options.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The void is designed to accept standard under-counter equipment such as refrigerated prep units, dishwashers, or undercounter freezers. The void depth runs close to the full bench depth, so most standard under-counter appliances in the 545mm to 645mm depth range should fit, depending on which bench depth you select. It is worth confirming the dimensions of your intended equipment before ordering.
- Yes. The bench is designed as a centre bench, meaning it is suitable for placement away from walls as well as against them. The inset legs and downstand worktop edges give it a tidy profile from all sides, and the flanged levelling feet allow it to be fixed securely to the floor if required.
- The Quick Service range is built to consistent heights and depths, so this bench is designed to align with other tables and fabrications in the same series. If you are planning a longer counter run that combines benches with and without voids, it is worth checking that your under-counter equipment depths are consistent across the run to avoid gaps or height mismatches.
