Refrigerators are essential for the success of any food service establishment. Every commercial kitchen needs at least one refrigerator to store cold items and keep them fresh. This ensures that the food you make for your customers is of the highest quality and safe.

To help you choose the right commercial 2-door refrigerator for your needs, we have prepared comprehensive points that will walk you through the features to buy the right refrigerator for your needs. Keep reading to learn more. 


Capacity and Dimensions

Look at the measurements first. It's best to check the external and internal dimensions of your commercial 2-door refrigerator because units with the same exterior width may have different internal measures.


For instance, a side-mounted compressor can lengthen a unit while maintaining the same internal capacity as a shorter top-mount refrigerator. For the unit's breadth and cubic foot capacity, consult the manufacturer's specification sheet.


Doors

Full-size, half-size, solid, and glass doors are all options for refrigerators. Look at the kitchen doorways, aisle lengths, and entrances to determine which refrigerator door you require.


  • Solid Doors vs. Glass Doors


Glass or solid doors can be used as refrigerator doors. Solid doors offer higher insulation, increasing the energy efficiency of the units. However, you won't be able to see the contents.


Refrigerators with glass doors, on the other hand, offer less insulation but let consumers see what's inside. Since they can stand in front of the fridge to get what they need first, staff are less likely to open the door for lengthy periods.

 

  • Door Handles


The door handles are another aspect of the door that you should check. The handles on some refrigerator doors are recessed. Because they are a part of the unit's design, they are more sturdy than bar handles. On the other hand, door-mounted bar handles have a chance of breaking off. 


Digital Thermostats

You may manually adjust the temperature of your refrigerator using digital thermostats. They give you excellent interior temperature control to ensure your goods are kept at the proper temperatures. They include a digital display to constantly monitor the temperatures.

 

Some appliances even allow you to monitor their temperature while you're away from the kitchen by connecting to your phone or computer.


Shelves

It is simpler to arrange the items in your refrigerator on shelves. By removing and replacing shelves in different spots, many shelves can be raised or lowered in height. The shelves of some refrigerators can be adjusted using a lever.


Shelves can be made of wire, which is suitable for holding cooking pans. Some refrigerators have lovely glass shelves that work well for merchandisers. Some glass shelves have a lip around the edges to catch spills and stop liquids from running down to the bottom shelves.  


Door Alarm

Modern variants come with a sophisticated door alarm. The sensors on these devices can determine if the door has been left open. The alarm will ring to alert you that the door needs to be closed if the system determines that it has been left open for an extended period of time.


Insulation

A commercial 2-door refrigerator must have excellent insulation to remain energy-efficient. Insulation that has been foamed is more effective than foam blocks that are merely placed between the interior and exterior panels.


Lighting

Interior lighting makes food visually appealing. LED lighting, used in more recent models, is bright, energy-efficient, and does not heat up as much as fluorescent lighting.
