700mm Depth Series Stainless Steel Upright Cabinets
Features
- 60 mm insulation: A thick insulating layer helps reduce heat transfer into the cabinet.
- Self-closing door: Closes automatically when opened to less than 90°, helping prevent it from being left ajar.
- Tool-free gasket removal: The magnetic door seal detaches easily for cleaning and replacement.
- Lockable storage: A supplied lock and key allow staff to control access.
- GN 2/1-compatible shelving: Accommodates standard foodservice storage arrangements.
The GN-580 Series offers professional chilled and frozen storage in a European-style stainless steel cabinet. Designed for commercial kitchens, its upright format provides 580 litres of effective capacity within a 740 × 730 mm footprint.
AISI 304 stainless steel inside and out provides a durable surface for daily use, while rounded internal corners make cleaning easier. The solid-door design suits back-of-house ingredient storage, with built-in lighting for clear visibility when accessing stock.
Choose the GN-580TN for refrigeration or the GN-580BT for frozen storage. Both models combine fan-assisted cooling with digital temperature control to support organised food storage throughout a busy service.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the cabinet 700 mm or 730 mm deep?
“700 mm Depth” is the brochure’s series designation. The listed external depth is 730 mm, which should be used for space planning. Required ventilation and service clearances must also be confirmed.
Is this a glass-door display refrigerator?
The brochure image shows a solid stainless steel door. This configuration is intended for enclosed storage rather than customer-facing product display.
Can one cabinet switch between refrigerator and freezer operation?
The documentation lists separate chiller and freezer models. It does not specify a convertible operating mode, so select the model that matches your products’ storage requirements.
Does GN 2/1 compatibility mean food pans are included?
No pans are listed among the supplied items. The specification confirms three shelves and GN 2/1 compatibility; confirm any required containers or accessories separately.
What electrical supply does it require?
Voltage, frequency and rated power are not provided in the supplied materials. Request these details for the intended installation market before ordering.
What should I confirm for a commercial purchase?
Confirm the exact model, refrigerant, electrical specification, shelf load rating and installation clearances. If certification documentation is required, request documents applicable to the supplied unit.
