Sterling Pro SP1HC-BK Single Hinged Door Bottle Cooler 106 Bottle

The Sterling Pro SP1HC-BK is an under-counter bottle cooler finished in black, designed to sit behind a bar or in a service area where chilled drinks need to be accessible and well presented. It holds 106 x 330ml bottles across two adjustable shelves, making it a practical choice for venues that need a steady supply of chilled product without the footprint of a larger back-bar unit.

In a bar or café environment, consistent product temperature through a service period is what matters most. Fan-assisted cooling supports rapid cool-down when the unit is restocked after a busy session, and the electronic controller allows straightforward temperature management. The timed defrost function reduces the need for manual intervention, which helps in venues where staff time is limited. LED internal lighting keeps the contents clearly visible without generating unnecessary heat inside the cabinet.

From a practical standpoint, the key operational advantages of this unit include:

• Adjustable shelves to accommodate different bottle formats and heights
• Fitted lock for security in public-facing or shared spaces
• R600a refrigerant, which carries a low global warming potential
• Fan-assisted cooling for quicker recovery after restocking
• Electronic controller for straightforward temperature adjustment

Installation is straightforward for a unit of this type — it requires a standard UK mains connection and adequate ventilation clearance around the cabinet. Like most under-counter refrigeration, it should not be positioned directly adjacent to heat-producing equipment such as glass washers or ovens, as this will affect performance. The black exterior suits most bar environments and the hinged door design is well suited to tighter spaces where a sliding door would be impractical.

This unit is best suited to smaller bars, cafés, hotel rooms, or as a secondary cooler in larger venues that need additional chilled bottle capacity at a specific service point. For higher-volume operations — a busy pub cellar bar or a festival unit running continuous service — a larger capacity model would be worth considering to avoid frequent restocking pressure.

If you're unsure whether this unit matches your service volume or bar layout, our team is happy to talk it through before you commit.
