Shop Commercial Beer Fridges by Capacity and Door Configuration
Our commercial beer fridge collection covers single-door under-counter units (typically 95L–185L), double-door back bar coolers (300L–430L) and larger triple-door upright models (up to 900L). Most units feature hinged or sliding glass doors for easy stock visibility, with LED interior lighting, fan-assisted cooling and digital temperature controls. Common operating ranges sit between +2°C and +10°C, ideal for serving beer, cider, soft drinks and bottled beverages at optimal temperatures.
We stock commercial beer fridges from Blizzard, Infrico, Koldbox and Vestfrost. Blizzard and Infrico offer robust back bar and upright bottle coolers suited to high-volume venues, whilst Koldbox provides compact under-counter glass door chillers for smaller bars and cafés. Vestfrost units are popular for their reliability in busy hospitality environments. Most models include stainless steel construction, double-glazed glass doors, adjustable shelving and self-closing door mechanisms.
How to Choose the Right Commercial Beer Fridge
Capacity & Size
Match capacity to your service volume and available space. A 100-cover pub typically requires 300–600 litres of chilled drink storage, depending on turnover and stock rotation. Under-counter models fit standard 600 mm worktop heights and are ideal for tight bar areas, whilst upright back bar units (typically 500–900 mm wide per door section) suit venues with wall space behind the bar. Allow 50–100 mm clearance at the rear and sides for airflow and compressor ventilation.
Energy Efficiency
Most commercial beer fridges in our range carry energy ratings between A and A++. Higher-rated models reduce annual electricity consumption, which is particularly important for units running 24/7 in busy bars. Fan-assisted cooling and double-glazed glass doors improve thermal efficiency and help maintain stable internal temperatures, reducing compressor cycling and lowering running costs over time.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size commercial beer fridge do I need for a 100-cover pub?
For a 100-cover pub with moderate to high drink turnover, a 300–600 litre commercial beer fridge is typically sufficient. A double-door back bar cooler (around 400L) works well for most operations, whilst busier venues or those with limited cellar space may benefit from a triple-door unit (600L+). Consider peak service periods and stock rotation frequency when sizing your unit.
Do commercial beer fridges require professional installation?
Most commercial beer fridges are plug-and-play units that do not require specialist installation, though you should ensure adequate ventilation clearance (typically 50–100 mm at rear and sides) and a stable, level surface. Units should be left to stand upright for 4–6 hours before switching on if transported horizontally. Regular cleaning of condenser coils and door seals will maintain efficiency and extend service life.
