The Tefcold SC381 is a single glass door upright merchandiser with a 372-litre capacity, designed to display bottled drinks and chilled products in commercial environments. It is a straightforward, well-established unit commonly found in cafés, bars, hotel receptions, convenience retail, and staff canteens — anywhere that needs reliable chilled display without taking up excessive floor space.

Fan-assisted cooling is the right choice for a glass door cabinet of this size. It circulates air evenly across all shelves, which matters when the door is being opened frequently during a busy service. Temperature recovery after repeated openings is steady, and the unit maintains consistent conditions across the full height of the cabinet rather than allowing warm spots to develop on upper shelves.

From an operational standpoint, the SC381 offers a practical set of features for day-to-day use:

Full-height internal LED lighting makes stock visible and presentable without generating excessive heat inside the cabinet
Integrated temperature display allows staff to monitor conditions at a glance without opening the door
Integrated lock provides basic security for high-value or age-restricted product lines
Available in both left- and right-hand hinge configurations to suit your space
Adjustable shelving allows the interior to be configured around your stock profile

Installation is relatively straightforward. The unit runs on a standard single-phase supply and requires adequate clearance at the rear and top for ventilation — positioning it hard against a wall or in a recess without airflow will affect performance and longevity. It is worth confirming the floor is level before installation, as unlevel placement can affect door seal integrity over time.

The SC381 is well suited to lower-to-medium-volume sites where a single display cabinet meets daily throughput requirements. For operators running higher footfall or needing to merchandise a larger or more varied range, a wider or multi-door configuration may be worth considering. Similarly, if available space is tight, there are smaller-capacity alternatives in the range.

If you are unsure whether this unit is the right fit for your site or service volume, we are happy to talk it through.

Frequently asked questions

Is the SC381 suitable for a busy bar or high-footfall café environment?

The SC381 is a solid choice for low-to-medium-volume sites where a single-door cabinet comfortably handles daily demand. In higher-footfall environments where the door is opened very frequently throughout service, a larger or multi-door unit may maintain temperatures more comfortably and reduce restocking frequency — it is worth discussing your expected throughput before committing.

What are the installation requirements for this unit?

The SC381 runs on a standard single-phase electrical supply, so no specialist electrical work is typically required. The key practical consideration is ventilation — the unit needs adequate clearance at the rear and top to dissipate heat effectively. Positioning in a fully enclosed recess without airflow is not advisable, as it will affect both performance and the longevity of the refrigeration system.

Can this unit be used to store food as well as bottled drinks?

Merchandisers like the SC381 are primarily designed for bottled drinks and pre-packaged chilled products, and are commonly used for that purpose in retail and hospitality settings. If your primary requirement is food storage rather than customer-facing display, a dedicated refrigerated cabinet designed specifically for food service use would generally be a more appropriate choice.
