Lincat LGT Electric Salamander Grill | Overhead Grill

The Lincat LGT is an electric overhead salamander grill designed for grilling, toasting, browning, and finishing dishes in a commercial kitchen. It mounts above the cooking line and delivers consistent radiant heat from above — straightforward, dependable performance of the kind that busy service periods demand.

Salamanders are among the hardest-working pieces of equipment in a commercial kitchen, and the LGT is built with that in mind. Whether it is grilling portions to order, browning gratins, finishing steaks, or pushing through rounds of toast during a breakfast service, the tubular sheathed heating elements are built for longevity and distribute heat evenly across the grill surface. That consistency matters during service — uneven heat costs time and leads to inconsistent output when covers are moving quickly.

From a day-to-day operational standpoint, the LGT offers several practical advantages:

• Even heat distribution supports consistent results across the full grill surface
• Durable tubular sheathed elements are straightforward to maintain over time
• Supplied with a toasting rack and grill pan with stay-cool handles, ready to use from installation
• Electric connection removes the need for a gas supply, simplifying installation on many sites
• Compact overhead footprint suits kitchens where space above the cooking line is limited

Installation is relatively straightforward. The unit is wall-mounted or shelf-mounted above the cooking position and requires an appropriate electrical supply. As with any overhead grill, it should sit within an existing extraction canopy or ventilation system. It is worth checking overhead clearances and confirming bracket compatibility before ordering.

The LGT is well suited to smaller operations — cafés, pub kitchens, small restaurants, and hotel breakfast services — where a reliable overhead grill is needed without the scale or cost of a larger unit. For higher-volume sites running continuous covers or requiring greater output, a heavier-duty model may be a more appropriate choice.

If you are unsure whether this model suits your service volumes or kitchen layout, the team is happy to talk it through before you commit.
