Product Description

Overview

The Carter-Hoffmann DF1818-5 heated pizza cabinet is purpose-built for restaurants, pizzerias, and foodservice operators who need a fast, reliable way to keep pizzas hot and ready for service. This doorless, pass-through cabinet holds up to five 18" x 18" pizza boxes on individually heated shelves, delivering consistent holding temperatures with digital controls and individual shelf timers. For new restaurant owners focused on speed-to-open, the DF1818-5 is a practical and compact solution that fits directly into your kitchen workflow and supports high-volume service without the complexity of larger holding equipment.

Key Features

  • Doorless, pass-through design for rapid service and easy access during peak periods—ideal for assembly lines and pickup counters.
  • Holds five 18" x 18" pizza boxes on 1/2-height, individually heated shelves to keep multiple pies at optimal serving temperature.
  • Digital controls with individual shelf timers so staff can precisely manage hold times and temperatures, reducing waste and ensuring consistent quality.
  • Top-mounted heater and insulated construction for efficient heat retention and reduced energy loss in a compact footprint.
  • All stainless steel exterior for easy cleaning, long-lasting corrosion resistance, and a professional appearance that stands up to commercial kitchen demands.
  • Stackable, half-height cabinet that maximizes vertical space—helpful for tight back-of-house footprints during a kitchen buildout.
  • ETL and ETL-Sanitation listed to meet foodservice safety and sanitation expectations in commercial kitchens.
  • 3" swivel casters with brakes for mobility during installation and secure placement during service.

Built for Commercial Success

The DF1818-5 is engineered for the rigors of foodservice. With commercial-grade stainless steel construction and proven heating components, this holding cabinet delivers the reliability you need to open your restaurant with confidence.
