  • Best Feature: The pass-through design is brilliant for speedy, uninterrupted customer service.

  • Consideration: Its 660mm width is ideal for many, but measure your counter space carefully.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Corner Deli in Bristol needed to replace their old, inefficient hot display which was causing bottlenecks during the lunch rush. They chose the Modena THFM for its dual-access doors and  larger capacity.

"The difference is night and  day. We can load up from our side while customers are still choosing from the front. The heat is consistent, the food looks great under the light, and  service is just so much smoother now."

Robert Finch – Owner, The Corner Deli

Since installing the Modena unit, the deli has seen a 20% increase in hot snack sales and  a significant reduction in customer queueing time.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Find a flat, stable counter with good air circulation around the unit.
  • Ensure it's within easy reach of a standard 13A socket.
  • Before first use, wipe down the interior and  shelves with a food-safe cleaner.
  • Fill the humidity tray with a small amount of clean water before switching on.

Keeping It Going

  • Always unplug and  allow the unit to cool completely before cleaning.
  • Wipe down interior surfaces and  glass doors daily with a soft cloth.
  • Remove and  wash the shelves and  the water tray regularly.
  • Check the plug and  power cord for any signs of wear and  tear.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Hot Food Display

Not sure which hot food display is right for your counter? Here are a few key things to consider to make sure you get the perfect fit for your business.

Size & Capacity

Measure your counter space first! Then, think about how many items you need to display at once. This unit's three shelves offer great capacity for its footprint.

Service Style

Will it be self-service, staff-served, or both? This unit's dual-access doors offer fantastic flexibility for any setup, preventing queues and  speeding up service.

Temperature Control

To comply with food safety rules, you need to hold food above 63°C. An adjustable thermostat gives you precise control to keep food safe and  perfectly hot.

Humidity is Key

For baked goods like pies and  pasties, a unit with a humidity tray (like this one) is essential to prevent them from drying out and  going to waste.

Lighting & Visibility

You can't sell what you can't see! Good internal lighting makes your food look irresistible and  helps to drive those all-important impulse purchases.

How a Simple Water Tray Keeps Your Food Perfectly Moist

Ever wondered why some hot-held pastries turn tough and  dry? It's often down to the dry, circulating heat. The Modena THFM cleverly solves this with its small, integrated water tray. Think of it like placing a bowl of water in your home oven when baking bread; it's the same principle. The heat gently evaporates the water, introducing a small amount of humidity (steam) into the cabinet's air. This moist air surrounds your pies and  pasties, preventing them from drying out and  keeping the pastry tender and  the fillings juicy for much, much longer. It's a simple but incredibly effective feature for better quality food.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Local Bakeries: Perfect for showcasing freshly baked pies, pasties, and  sausage rolls right on the countertop.
  • Busy Cafés: Keep hot breakfast baps or croissants warm and  ready for the morning coffee run.
  • Petrol Stations & Service Stops: An ideal hot food display cabinet for capturing profitable grab-and-go sales from travellers.
  • Event Kiosks & Stadiums: The dual doors make serving large crowds quick and  efficient during half-time.
