Parry 350mm Deep Stainless Steel 1-Tier Chefs Rack

The Parry 1-tier chefs rack is a wall-mounted stainless steel gantry designed to sit above the pass or service counter in a commercial kitchen. It provides overhead storage and organisation at the point of service — keeping plates, garnishes, and small equipment within easy reach of the pass without cluttering the counter below. The rack arrives fully assembled and is straightforward to fix to most wall surfaces.

In a working kitchen environment, a well-positioned chefs rack helps keep the pass clear and service moving. The single-tier format suits kitchens where ceiling height or extraction systems limit how much overhead depth is practical, and the 350mm shelf depth offers a useful balance between storage capacity and clearance above the counter. The stainless steel construction holds up well to the heat, steam, and cleaning cycles typical of a busy kitchen.

A practical detail worth noting is the option to add quartz downlighters. These do more than illuminate the pass — they provide a gentle source of radiant heat that helps keep plated dishes at temperature during the gap between kitchen and front-of-house collection. For operations where ticket times can vary or covers run in quick succession, this is a useful addition rather than a luxury one.

• Available in a range of widths to match your pass configuration
• Stainless steel construction is easy to clean and resists corrosion
• Optional quartz downlighters for pass illumination and gentle plate warming
• Fully assembled on arrival, reducing installation time
• Suitable for mounting to most standard wall surfaces

Installation is relatively straightforward, though the fixing method will depend on the wall construction behind the pass. Solid blockwork or tiled surfaces present no particular issue, but stud or plasterboard walls will need appropriate fixings and possibly a backing board to carry the load safely, particularly if the rack will be used to hold heavier items or if the lit version is specified. If quartz downlighters are selected, you will need a nearby electrical connection — worth confirming with your electrician before ordering.

This rack is a practical choice for small to medium kitchens, café operations, and pub or bistro passes where a single overhead tier is sufficient. For larger or higher-volume operations running multiple pass sections, a wider unit or a two-tier configuration may serve better.
