Product Description

Overview

The Carter-Hoffmann GTH12 Heated Transport Cart is designed for restaurateurs and foodservice operators who need fast, reliable hot-holding during intense service periods and rapid restaurant openings. This gridless, insulated heated cabinet accepts (12) 18" x 26" sheet pans or (24) 12" x 20" steam table pans and delivers consistent holding temperatures using a top-mounted heater and digital LED thermometer. Constructed with an all-stainless-steel exterior and heavy insulation, the GTH12 is built to withstand the demands of commercial kitchen environments while offering mobile convenience with 6" balloon plate casters.

Key Features

  • High capacity: Accepts (12) 18" x 26" sheet pans or (24) 12" x 20" pans — ideal for batch cooking, catered events, and high-volume service.
  • Power flexibility: AC operation with two rechargeable 12V batteries for DC use — keeps food hot during transport or when AC power is unavailable.
  • Durable construction: All stainless steel exterior and insulated cabinet for corrosion resistance and long service life in demanding kitchens.
  • Precision temperature control: Top-mounted heater with digital thermometer and LED display provides easy monitoring and reliable hot holding.
  • Mobility and safety: 6" balloon plate casters (2 swivel, 2 brake) and perimeter bumper protect both product and kitchen infrastructure when moving the cart.
  • Gridless interior: Flexible shelf spacing with adjustable slide centers (1-3/4") accommodates a variety of pan configurations for maximum versatility.
  • Certification: cULus listed for safety compliance in commercial environments, aligning with restaurant equipment standards.
  • Compact footprint: Height range of 67"–72" for fitment under many ventilation hoods and in staging or pass-through areas during service.
