Commercial Hot Cupboard | Plate Warmer | 1000mm Width | Modena AG1000

Q: What is the main purpose of this commercial hot cupboard?

A: It's primarily designed to heat and  hold plates at a warm temperature, but it can also be used to hold pans of pre-cooked food like vegetables or pies at a safe holding temperature (above 63°C).

Q: How many plates can the Modena AG1000 hold?

A: Capacity depends on plate size and  stacking, but a 1000mm unit can typically hold approximately 120-150 standard 10-inch dinner plates.

Q: Is the temperature adjustable?

A: Yes, it has a simple dial thermostat that allows you to control the temperature anywhere between 30°C and  80°C.

Q: What kind of power socket does it need?

A: It comes fitted with a standard UK 13-amp plug, so you can plug it into any standard wall socket without needing a special installation.

Q: How do you clean the inside?

A: The stainless steel interior can be wiped down with a damp cloth and  a food-safe cleaner. The internal shelf is sectionalised, making it easy to remove for a more thorough clean.

Q: Are the shelves inside adjustable?

A: The unit comes with one fixed-position internal shelf, designed to maximise space and  allow for good air circulation.

Q: Is it difficult to move?

A: Not at all. It's fitted with four heavy-duty castors, so it can be rolled around easily for cleaning or repositioning. Two of the castors have brakes to lock it in place.

Q: Why are sliding doors better than hinged ones?

A: In a busy, often cramped kitchen environment, sliding doors are a huge advantage as they don't swing out and  obstruct walkways or other equipment.
