Mounted Shelving: More Storage Area

Mounted shelving creates new storage spaces in your commercial kitchen, utilizing unused areas in your establishment to store ingredients, bottles, utensils, or even small appliances. These commercial shelving units save valuable floor space that can be allocated for cooking, food prep, or processing tools. Instead, they can be installed on blank walls, hung from the ceiling, or placed on a worktable.

What are The Types of Mounted Shelving?

2 types of mounted shelving are available:

Wall Mounted Shelving

Wall-mounted shelves are tailored to be installed on the walls. They allow you to use your floor space efficiently by moving small appliances, ingredient bottles, spices, or other frequently needed items onto these units. So, you can open up more space for other commercial kitchen equipment while streamlining your operations by bringing the frequently needed ingredients, tools, and utensils close to the chefs and other staff.

Wall-mounted shelving units are offered in a wide range of designs. You can find solid shelves that handle heavier items or wire shelving options to increase air circulation for dry ingredients. You can buy a tubular shelving unit if you need heavy-duty units with increased air circulation.

Ceiling Mounted Shelving

Ceiling-mounted shelving is installed on the ceiling above the cooking station, kitchen island, or work tables to keep equipment or ingredients within easy reach.  

Which Factors Affect the Choosing of Mounted Shelving?

Choosing mounted shelving for commercial kitchens involves carefully considering 12 key considerations to ensure the shelving system meets the demanding requirements of a professional culinary environment. These features affect both the functionality and compliance of the shelving with health and safety standards. Here are the crucial factors to consider:

  • Material: The shelving material is critical, especially in commercial kitchens where hygiene is paramount. Stainless steel is a popular choice due to its durability, resistance to corrosion, and ease of cleaning. Other materials, such as epoxy-coated metal, can also be suitable for areas with less exposure to moisture.
  • Weight Capacity: Commercial kitchens require shelving that can support heavy loads, including bulky kitchen appliances, large containers of ingredients, and cookware. Ensure the shelving system is designed to handle the specific weight demands of your kitchen equipment and supplies.
  • Ease of Cleaning: Hygiene is a top priority in commercial kitchens, so selecting shelving that is easy to clean and maintain is essential. Shelves with smooth surfaces and minimal crevices prevent the accumulation of dirt and bacteria and are easier to wipe down.
  • Adjustability: Adjustable shelf heights provide flexibility to accommodate various sizes of kitchen tools and ingredients. They also allow for the efficient use of space and adapt to changing storage needs.
  • Ventilation: For areas where food is stored, choosing shelves with a ventilated design can help ensure proper air circulation, which is important for maintaining food quality and safety.
  • Size and Configuration: The available space in a commercial kitchen may be limited, so it's important to select shelving that maximizes storage capacity without obstructing workflow. Consider your kitchen layout and choose shelving that fits well and optimizes storage space.
  • Durability and Reliability: Commercial kitchens are high-traffic, high-use environments. Shelving must be durable and reliable, withstanding constant use, exposure to varying temperatures, and the rigors of a busy kitchen.
  • Compliance with Health and Safety Standards: Ensure the shelving meets local health and safety regulations of commercial kitchens. This may include food-safe materials and designs that support hygiene and cleanliness.
  • Mounting System: The strength and stability of the mounting system are crucial. It must securely anchor the shelves to the wall to prevent accidents or collapse under the weight of stored items.
  • Accessibility: Mounted shelving should be designed for easy access, allowing kitchen staff to quickly and safely reach necessary items. This includes considering the height at which shelves are mounted and the space around them for easy access.
  • Brands: Brands offer various designs that can fit your needs. Chef's Deal presents leading manufacturers such as Advance Tabco, Eagle Group, Tarrison, John Boos, Atosa USA, BK Resources, Choice Equipment, CMA Dishmachines, FMP, Glastender, Hubert, Klinger's Trading, NBR Equipment, New Age, Omcan USA, Oscartek, Page View Industries, Quantum, and Serv-Ware.
  • Cost: The cost of the shelving system should fit within your budget while meeting your other criteria. Higher-quality materials and complex mounting systems may cost more but offer greater durability and functionality.

By carefully evaluating these features, you can choose mounted shelving for your commercial kitchen that meets your storage needs and contributes to a safe, efficient, and hygienic working environment. Please also check our other restaurant shelving options for better storage areas.
