Hardware and accessory for heated counter BHS-G GY7V008

A two-drawer module that slides beneath 400 mm open bases to convert under-counter space into organised GN1/1 storage.

The principle is simple: full-extension rails carry each drawer smoothly from closed to fully open, allowing the operator to reach the entire contents without lifting or tilting. Because the rails are mounted directly to the module's frame, the drawers remain level and stable even when loaded with heavy gastronorm trays. This arrangement keeps hot or chilled items secure while the base above continues to support a cooking range, fry top or neutral element.

To use the section, the operator pulls the drawer handle until the rails lock in the extended position. A GN1/1 tray is placed inside, the drawer is pushed shut, and the same sequence is repeated for the second drawer. When the base above is in use, the drawers remain accessible from the front, so ingredients or finished dishes can be retrieved without interrupting the cooking process.

Construction is stainless steel throughout, chosen for its resistance to corrosion and ease of cleaning in a busy kitchen. The front panel and drawer fronts are formed from a single sheet, minimising seams where dirt could collect. Each drawer rides on full-extension ball-bearing rails that are fixed to the side walls of the module.

The controls are limited to the drawer handles, which also serve as the release mechanism for the rails. Pulling the handle disengages the lock and allows the drawer to slide out.

The 400 mm width matches the footprint of compatible BHS-G open bases, ensuring the section fits flush beneath cooking ranges GC11 and GC13, fry tops GG1, and neutral elements GN01. The 105 mm height keeps the module low enough to slide under the base without interfering with the worktop above, while the 520 mm depth provides sufficient room for a standard GN1/1 tray.

Cleaning is straightforward: remove the trays, wipe the interior and rails with a damp cloth, and dry before reloading. The absence of internal corners or crevices reduces the risk of trapped food debris.

This section is offered as a single variant for 400 mm open bases and is catalogued under hot-cupboard accessories.
