Equipment stand Stalgast 9701400

A base unit in a professional kitchen carries the weight of worktops, hobs, sinks or heavy appliances while keeping them at a comfortable working height. It stands directly on the floor, distributing the load evenly so that the surface above stays level and stable. The open space inside becomes storage for pots, pans or cleaning supplies, or it can house built-in appliances such as refrigerated drawers or waste bins. Because the unit is fixed in place, it also defines the layout of the kitchen, anchoring equipment and creating a continuous run of work surfaces.

The operator first positions the base unit where it is needed, ensuring the floor is level and clear. Adjustable feet are set to compensate for any unevenness, then the unit is secured to the wall or neighbouring units to prevent movement. A worktop, sink or appliance is placed on top and fastened down, creating a solid platform for food preparation, cooking or cleaning. Once in use, the base unit remains static, supporting the equipment above and providing enclosed storage below.

This Stalgast base unit measures 800 mm wide, 565 mm deep and 600 mm high. The width determines how much equipment can sit side by side, the depth sets the reach from front to back, and the height establishes the working level for staff. The footprint fits standard kitchen layouts, allowing the unit to slot into runs of similar bases or to stand alone as a single support. The open interior can be left empty or fitted with shelves, drawers or appliances to suit the kitchen's needs.

Cleaning is limited to the exterior surfaces and any internal shelves or panels that are fitted. Wipe-downs remove grease and spills, while regular checks of the adjustable feet and wall fixings keep the unit stable and level over time.

The unit is placed in the catalogue under kitchen bases and support structures, where it serves as a foundation for worktops, sinks and built-in catering equipment.
