  • The Build: The drop-down mechanism is solid and  secure, built for constant daily use.
  • The Catch: It can't be retrofitted, so you must decide when buying the cupboard.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Corner House Hotel in Cardiff decided to upgrade their breakfast buffet area to improve guest experience. They invested in new Lincat Panther hot cupboards and  opted to include the PTS6 tray slides with their order.

"The tray slide seems like such a minor detail, but the feedback has been fantastic. Guests aren't fumbling with hot plates and  coffee cups anymore. It’s completely smoothed out the morning rush and  the whole area just looks more professional and  considered."

Robert Davies – Operations Manager

The upgrade led to a noticeable improvement in service speed, reducing congestion around the buffet by an estimated 25% during peak times.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • There's no setup required from you! This is the best part of a factory-fitted accessory.
  • Simply ensure you order the Lincat Panther tray slide PTS6 at the same time as your Panther 6GN hot cupboard.
  • Your complete unit will be delivered with the tray slide already professionally installed, aligned, and  ready to use.
  • Just position your hot cupboard, plug it in, and  the tray slide is ready for service.

Keeping It Going

  • After service, wipe the slide down with a soft, damp cloth and  a food-safe sanitiser.
  • Occasionally check the drop-down hinge mechanism to ensure it moves freely and  is clear of any debris.
  • Avoid using abrasive pads or harsh chemical cleaners, as this can damage the finish.
  • Ensure the slide is dry before folding it away to maintain its condition.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Service Accessories

Not sure what fits best for your setup? Here are a few things to think about when adding accessories to your catering equipment.

Check Compatibility First

Always double-check that an accessory is designed for your specific model. The PTS6 is exclusively for Lincat Panther 6GN units, ensuring a perfect fit.

Consider Your Customer Journey

Is your service assisted or fully self-service? A tray slide is an essential component for any self-service line to improve speed and  convenience.

Think About Space

Drop-down or folding slides, like this Panther tray slide for hot cupboard, are brilliant for multi-use areas where you need to free up corridor space after service.

Factory vs. Retrofit

Factory-fitted items nearly always offer superior stability and  a cleaner look. If you're buying a new unit, it's the best time to add integrated accessories.

Ease of Cleaning

Look for smooth, simple designs without hidden crevices or dirt traps. This makes the end-of-day clean-up much quicker and  easier for your staff.

Why ‘Factory-Fitted’ Guarantees Peace of Mind

You might see the term 'factory-fitted' and  wonder what it really means. Put simply, it means this tray slide is professionally installed onto your hot cupboard by Lincat engineers during the main unit's assembly, before it even leaves their factory. It's not a separate kit that arrives for you to bolt on yourself.
