Key Features

• Aluminum construction: Lightweight, corrosion-resistant material ideal for humid kitchen environments and frequent washdown, increasing longevity and reducing maintenance.
• 31-tray capacity: Holds up to (31) 18" x 26" trays on 1-1/2" spacing — perfect for high-volume bakeries, prep lines, and banquet staging during peak service.
• Compact footprint: 20-1/2" W x 26-1/2" D x 57-7/16" H maximizes storage without sacrificing valuable kitchen floor space.
• End-loading with closed sides: Easy tray access while protecting product from cross-traffic and debris; closed sides increase structural rigidity for long-term reliability.
• Extruded side panels & solid top: Robust construction details that enhance durability and give a finished, professional appearance in front- and back-of-house environments.
• 5" casters: Smooth mobility for repositioning racks between prep stations, ovens, and loading docks — simplifies flow during a busy restaurant opening.
• Assembled / welded: Ships ready to use with professional welds for structural strength; less on-site assembly speeds installation and reduces delays.
