Equipment Stands - N — BHS offers individually designed and manufactured stainless steel equipment stands for kitchen and bar equipment for HoReCa businesses: an equipment stand is a stainless steel platform solution that raises equipment (fryer, griddle, blender, convection oven, refrigerated display case or other HoReCa equipment) to an ergonomic working height or ensures a more stable and hygienic placement on the floor or counter surface; N denotes a non-standard (custom-designed) variant that differs from the standard series stands with a tailored size, mounting or configuration; BHS designs such stands for specific equipment specifications. BHS offers non-standard stands together with a wide range of Non-standard Solutions.
See also the standard range of Stands and Supports for Equipment and Kitchen Worktables for other custom solutions.
Equipment Stands - N — a non-standard equipment stand is a custom solution for situations where a standard series stand does not meet the specific equipment’s size, weight load, mounting or installation requirements; BHS designs and manufactures such stands to order for specific equipment specifications in professional HoReCa kitchens, bars, pastry businesses and other food processing companies.
When a non-standard equipment stand is needed
Equipment Stands - N — a standard equipment stand (550, 600, 650, 700 mm width) covers most typical equipment requirements; however, there are situations where a standard stand does not fit — the equipment is non-standard in size, a special mounting system is required or a specific layout is needed. Non-standard equipment sizes — Equipment Stands - N is necessary when the equipment’s width or depth does not fit within the standard series dimensions; for example, the equipment may be narrower or wider than the standard series, or a stand may be needed for double equipment placement; BHS designs a custom stand for such cases. Specific mounting requirements — Equipment Stands - N may be necessary if the equipment requires specific mounting from the stand: anti-vibration assembly, additional load-bearing supports, placement with raised side guards or a unique leg system; see Non-standard Solutions. BHS designs non-standard stands.
Non-standard stand construction and materials
Equipment Stands - N — BHS non-standard equipment stands are made from stainless steel, the standard material for HoReCa kitchens; stainless steel ensures hygiene, durability and compliance with HACCP requirements in wet and aggressive kitchen environments. Advantages of stainless steel for stands — Equipment Stands - N stainless steel withstands moisture, cleaning chemicals and heat; the steel does not corrode over time, does not rust and does not lose its structure; it can be disinfected with standard disinfectants. Structural strength for equipment weight load — Equipment Stands - N is designed according to the specific equipment’s weight; heavier equipment (deck oven, large fryer) requires a reinforced profile and thicker legs; BHS calculates the necessary load-bearing capacity before manufacturing; see Stands and Supports for Equipment. BHS manufactures non-standard stands.
Ergonomic and hygiene benefits of a stand
Equipment Stands - N — a stand raises equipment to an ergonomically correct working height; equipment on the floor is ergonomically unsuitable — the worker bends or squats, increasing back strain during intensive work shifts. Equipment height optimisation — Equipment Stands - N ensures that the equipment is at the worker’s comfortable working zone — usually 85–95 cm from the floor (depending on the equipment type and worker’s height); this height is ergonomically optimal for prolonged kitchen work. Hygiene under the equipment — equipment on a stand is raised above the floor, making it easier to clean the floor underneath; equipment on the floor creates a dirt accumulation zone that is difficult to reach with cleaning equipment; see Kitchen Worktables. BHS supplies ergonomic stands for HoReCa equipment.
HoReCa usage scenarios
Equipment Stands - N for a non-standard size fryer — a fryer with width or depth outside the standard series dimensions; BHS designs a stand according to the specific fryer’s specifications; the stand ensures ergonomics and floor hygiene in the restaurant’s fryer section. Equipment Stands - N for a convection oven on a worktable — a convection oven is heavy equipment that requires a stand with high load-bearing capacity; the BHS stand meets the specific oven’s weight requirements. Equipment Stands - N for a blender station in a bar — a blender on a custom stand with anti-vibration mounting; the stand prevents vibration transfer to the counter surface during intensive blender use; BHS supplies the products.

Equipment Stands - N — for BHS stand design, the following is required: equipment model number and specifications (width, depth, height, weight), installation environment (on the floor or on a counter), desired final height (equipment top height from the floor) and specific mounting requirements; see Non-standard Solutions.
How does a non-standard stand differ from a standard series stand? Equipment Stands - N — standard series stands (550, 600, 650, 700) are ready-made products with fixed dimensions; a non-standard (N) stand is designed and manufactured according to specific specifications; a non-standard stand may differ in size, leg configuration, additional mountings or material thickness; see also the Stands and Supports for Equipment range.
