The Easy AG1800 isn't trying to be clever; it's designed to be a dependable workhorse, and  it nails it.

Oliver Bennett – Catering Equipment Expert View Profile →

  • Practical Design: The removable shelf and  doors are a brilliant touch for hygiene.
  • Size Consideration: It's a large unit, so be sure to measure your space carefully first.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Peak District Inn, a bustling pub near Bakewell, needed to streamline its incredibly popular Sunday lunch service. Their smaller, older hot cupboards just couldn't keep up with the demand, leading to a bottleneck at the pass.

"Service used to be a frantic rush to get plates out before they cooled. Now, everything is calm and  controlled. The AG1800 holds everything we need for a full service, and  the food arrives at the table perfectly hot every time."

Samuel Jones – Head Chef

Since installing the unit, the inn has eliminated plate temperature complaints and  has seen a notable 15% increase in table turnover during peak periods.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Find a level spot for the unit, ideally with a bit of space around it for ventilation.
  • Once in position, lock the two front castors to keep it securely in place.
  • It’s ready to go! Just plug it into any standard 13A socket – no electrician needed.
  • Before its first use, give the interior and  exterior a quick wipe down with a food-safe cleaner.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe down the stainless steel exterior daily with a soft, damp cloth to prevent smudges and  build-up.
  • Once a week, remove the sliding doors and  internal shelf for a thorough deep clean.
  • Regularly check the castors and  clear away any debris to ensure it always moves smoothly.
  • For safety, always switch the unit off and  unplug it from the wall before cleaning inside.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Hot Cupboard

Not sure which model is right for your kitchen? Here are a few things to consider before you buy.

Measure Your Space

Don't just measure the gap where it will live. Check the width of your doorways and  any tight corners on the delivery route to ensure it will fit through.

Calculate Your Capacity

Think about your absolute busiest service. How many plates do you need ready at once? This 1800mm model holds around 540, making it ideal for high-volume sites.

Check Your Power Supply

This catering plate warmer unit uses a standard 13A plug, but always check the power requirements, as some larger or more specialist units may need hardwiring by an electrician.

Consider Ease of Cleaning

Look for features like removable doors and  shelves, as seen on this AG1800 model. They make deep cleaning far less of a chore and  help maintain high hygiene standards.

Decide on the Top Type

This model has a versatile stainless steel hot cupboard plain top, great for light plating. If you need to keep food warm from above, you might need a model with a heated gantry.

How Double-Skinned Insulation Cuts Your Energy Bill

Ever wondered what 'double-skinned' actually means for your kitchen? Think of this hot cupboard like a giant thermos flask for your plates. Between the inner and  outer layers of stainless steel, there's a layer of insulation. This design is brilliant at trapping heat inside the cabinet, preventing it from escaping into your already warm kitchen.

The real-world benefit is simple: because the heat stays in, the heating element doesn't have to constantly click on and  off to maintain the temperature you've set. This means it uses significantly less electricity over a long service, which you'll definitely notice on your energy bills. It’s a clever feature that saves you money and  helps keep the kitchen environment a bit more comfortable.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Restaurants & Pubs: Perfect for keeping main course plates piping hot during busy weekend services and  Sunday roasts.
  • School & University Canteens: A reliable way to manage high-volume lunch rushes and  serve consistently warm meals to students.

  • Carveries & Buffet Restaurants: Keep your entire plate stack ready and  waiting for guests to help themselves, ensuring a smooth flow.
