Sterling Pro BBS220HINGED Double Door Hinged Bottle Cooler 223Ltr

The Sterling Pro BBS220HINGED is a double door hinged bottle cooler designed to sit under or behind a bar counter, keeping bottled drinks at consistent serving temperatures throughout service. With 223 litres of usable capacity across two sections, it provides a practical level of stock accessibility without taking up excessive footprint in a working bar environment.

In a busy bar or hospitality setting, reliable temperature holding during peak service is what matters most. This unit uses R600a refrigerant, which is well regarded for efficient cooling performance and lower environmental impact, and the LED internal lighting makes stock identification quick even during a busy shift. The self-closing, lockable doors help maintain temperature stability when staff are moving quickly and aren't always focused on closing the cabinet behind them.

From an operational standpoint, the BBS220HINGED offers several practical advantages for bar and front-of-house environments:

• Adjustable shelving allows flexible bottle storage across different product sizes
• Self-closing doors reduce temperature loss during high-traffic service periods
• Lockable doors help protect stock at close-down or in venues with shared access
• LED internal lighting supports quick stock identification without adding heat load
• Black exterior finishes cleanly in most bar back-fits without standing out

Installation is straightforward for an under-counter position. The unit requires a standard UK mains supply and adequate ventilation clearance — particularly at the rear — to allow the refrigeration system to dissipate heat effectively. Positioning in enclosed, poorly ventilated spaces will reduce efficiency and put unnecessary strain on the compressor. As with any refrigeration unit installed at floor level, ensuring a level surface is important for door alignment and seal performance.

This cooler is well suited to small to mid-sized bars, pub back bars, hotel room service areas, and similar hospitality environments where a compact, reliable under-counter chiller is needed. For operations with higher throughput or a larger bottle range, it is worth considering whether a wider or higher-capacity unit would better serve the volume required.

If you'd like guidance on whether this unit is the right fit for your bar layout or service volume, the team is happy to talk it through with you.
