Product Description
The Williams BC3-SS is a triple door back-bar bottle cooler designed to hold up to 231 standard 330ml bottles in an under-counter or back-bar position. Built for licensed premises and bar environments where consistent chilled storage is a daily operational requirement, it combines straightforward refrigeration performance with practical storage flexibility across three glazed doors.
In a busy bar setting, reliable temperature holding during service is essential. The BC3-SS maintains a stable chill suitable for bottled beers, soft drinks, and mixers throughout peak periods. The triple door configuration means staff can access one section without disturbing the temperature of adjacent storage — a practical advantage during a heavy shift when the unit is being opened frequently.
From an operational standpoint, the unit offers several day-to-day advantages:
- Glazed doors allow bar staff to identify stock quickly without opening the unit unnecessarily
- Adjustable nylon-coated wire shelves accommodate different bottle formats and can sizes
- Interior lighting improves visibility in low-lit bar environments
- The 850mm height profile is suited to under-counter or back-bar worktop installation, and the unit can also be double-stacked where vertical space is available
- Barrel-locked doors add a basic level of security appropriate for licensed trade use
The BC3-SS is available in stainless steel finish, which is straightforward to wipe down and well suited to commercial bar environments. Installation is relatively straightforward — the unit requires a standard mains electrical connection and adequate clearance for ventilation. It is worth confirming the ventilation arrangement before positioning, as restricted airflow will affect refrigeration efficiency. The unit is not suited to unventilated enclosed spaces or ambient environments significantly above normal room temperature.
This unit is well suited to mid-volume bars, hotel bar counters, sports clubs, and hospitality venues where a reliable, reasonably high-capacity bottle cooler is needed without the footprint of a full-size back-bar cabinet. For very high-volume sites or venues requiring greater capacity across a single continuous unit, it is worth considering whether a larger format model would serve the operation better.
If you're working out the right storage capacity for your bar layout or want to talk through placement options, our team is happy to help you think it through before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The BC3-SS is well matched to mid-volume bar operations where consistent chilled bottle storage is needed across a service period. For very high-volume venues with rapid turnover across a wide range of bottled products, it is worth reviewing whether the 231-bottle capacity covers your typical par level, or whether a higher-capacity unit would better suit the throughput.
- The unit requires a standard mains electrical connection and sufficient clearance around the ventilation points to maintain efficient refrigeration. It is designed for under-counter or back-bar positioning and can also be double-stacked on appropriate shelving. Confirm your intended location allows adequate airflow before installation, as restricted ventilation will reduce cooling performance over time.
- The adjustable nylon-coated wire shelves can be reconfigured to accommodate taller or larger bottle formats, though overall capacity will reduce accordingly when shelves are repositioned. If your range includes a significant proportion of larger bottles, it is worth factoring this into your storage planning before purchasing.
