Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Royal Oak in Bakewell, Derbyshire needed a fast solution after one of their hot cupboard shelves was accidentally chipped during a busy weekend service. It looked unprofessional and  posed a potential safety risk.

"We couldn't have our main carvery unit out of action. We ordered the Lincat PHTG glass insert from EasyEquipment, it arrived the next day, and  we popped it straight in. It was a perfect match, and  the display looked brand new again. So simple, so effective."

Michael Davies – Landlord

The fix restored their food presentation standards in under five minutes, ensuring service continued without a hitch.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure the hot cupboard is switched off and  has completely cooled down.
  • Carefully remove the old or broken glass insert.
  • Clean the shelf supports inside the unit to ensure a level surface.
  • Gently slide the new glass insert into place, ensuring it sits securely on the supports.

Keeping It Going

  • Clean regularly using a soft cloth and  a food-safe glass cleaner.
  • Avoid using abrasive scouring pads which can scratch the surface.
  • Always allow the glass to cool before cleaning to prevent thermal shock.
  • Handle with care when removing for cleaning to avoid chipping the edges.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Spares & Accessories

Not sure you've got the right part? Here are a few tips to make sure you're ordering correctly.

Check Your Model Number

The best way to guarantee a fit is to match the part to your appliance's model number. You can usually find this on a metal plate on the back or side of the unit.

Genuine vs. Generic

Official parts like this Lincat PHTG glass insert are designed for a perfect fit and  to uphold your warranty. They offer peace of mind that generic parts can't match.

Measure Twice, Order Once

If you're ever in doubt, measure the existing part or the space it fits into. For this item, you're looking for standard 1/1 Gastronorm dimensions (530 x 325mm).

Consider the Material

For a hot cupboard, you need toughened, heat-resistant glass. Standard glass is not safe and  will crack under thermal stress. Always choose the correct material for the job.

Keep Spares on Hand

For business-critical items, having a spare on the shelf can prevent costly downtime. A cracked shelf won't have to mean a service interruption.

Why 1/1GN Sizing is a Caterer's Best Friend

Ever wondered what '1/1GN' actually means? It stands for Gastronorm, which is a brilliant European standard for kitchenware sizes. Think of it like Lego for professional kitchens. A 1/1GN (530 x 325mm) is the base size, and  all other sizes (1/2, 1/3, 2/1 etc.) are fractions or multiples of it. This means a 1/1GN pan from one brand will fit perfectly into a 1/1GN hot cupboard, oven, or fridge from another brand. This Lincat Panther gastronorm glass shelf is cut to this exact size, so you know any standard 1/1GN dish or combination of smaller GN dishes will sit on it perfectly. It’s this standardisation that makes a commercial kitchen flow so efficiently.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Pubs & Carveries: Essential for keeping the Sunday roast service looking pristine and  professional under the heat lamps.
  • Hotel Breakfast Buffets: A quick-fix to ensure your hot breakfast display always meets guest expectations for quality.
  • Event & Mobile Caterers: A must-have spare part to prevent equipment failures from ruining an off-site event.
  • Canteens & Service Lines: Keep your food service running smoothly with a replacement shelf that drops right in.
