Stainless Steel Trolleys

Stainless steel trolleys — a non-standard stainless steel trolley is a mobile storage and transportation solution manufactured to order with specific dimensions and configurations; standard series trolleys (for example, tray trolleys 600x400, GN trolleys) do not always match the width of the space aisle, the size of the lift or refrigerated cabinet, or a specific transportation need, and BHS manufactures non-standard trolleys to meet the requirements of HoReCa businesses.

When a non-standard stainless steel trolley is needed

Stainless steel trolleys — standard series trolleys are unsuitable in several typical situations that BHS regularly identifies in customer kitchen projects. Aisle width limitation — if the kitchen aisle is narrower than the standard trolley width, the trolley will not physically pass through; BHS manufactures a narrower non-standard trolley that matches the exact aisle width. Lift or refrigerated cabinet size — in a hotel or hospital, a trolley is often moved between floors by lift; a standard trolley may be too wide or long to fit in the lift; BHS manufactures a trolley with dimensions that fit the lift with clearance; see Non-standard Solutions. BHS supplies non-standard trolleys.

Non-standard stainless steel trolley configurations

Stainless steel trolleys — BHS manufactures non-standard trolleys in various configurations according to the transportation purpose and contents. Tray trolley with non-standard shelf size — a tray trolley is traditionally designed for transporting 600x400 trays; if an establishment uses non-standard tray sizes, a trolley with an adapted shelf width and depth is required. GN dish trolley with specific GN size — GN dish trolleys are usually intended for GN 1/1 or GN 2/1 dishes; a non-standard trolley with a layout and runners adapted to the specific GN size. Multi-functional trolley with varying shelf intervals — if the trolley needs to store items of different heights, BHS manufactures a trolley with adjustable or non-standard shelf intervals; see Stainless Steel Cabinets and Shelves.

Wheels, brakes and mobility system

Stainless steel trolleys — the trolley wheel system is a critical component; the type, size and locking mechanism of the wheels are selected according to the operating environment and load. Wheel selection — for non-standard stainless steel trolleys, BHS uses stainless steel or polymer wheels with or without brakes; the wheel size (75–200 mm) depends on the floor covering (tiles, concrete, rubber) and the total weight of the trolley including its load. Locking brakes — a stainless steel trolley with brakes is necessary in situations where the trolley is left unattended, for example, next to an oven or refrigerated cabinet; brakes prevent the trolley from moving unintentionally; see Bar Equipment. BHS supplies mobile stainless steel trolleys.

HoReCa usage scenarios

Hotel with non-standard trolleys for lift transportation — in a hotel, food is transported from the kitchen to the dining room or banquet hall by lift; a standard trolley does not fit in the lift; BHS manufactured a trolley with precise dimensions matching the internal size of the lift. Hospital with non-standard trolleys for patient meal transportation — the width of hospital corridors and door openings requires trolleys with specific dimensions; BHS manufactured non-standard trolleys to match the hospital infrastructure dimensions. Canteen with non-standard tray trolleys — a canteen uses trays of a specific size that do not fit on the shelves of a standard trolley; BHS manufactured trolleys specifically for these trays; BHS supplies the products. BHS designs and manufactures non-standard stainless steel trolleys for HoReCa businesses.

Frequently asked questions

What measurements are required to order a non-standard trolley? Stainless steel trolleys — to order a non-standard trolley, the following are required: maximum external width and depth (depending on the aisle or lift dimensions), number and spacing of shelves, total load on the trolley, type of wheels (with or without brakes) and the storage purpose (trays, GN dishes, others); see Non-standard Solutions.

Can a non-standard trolley be manufactured with a closable front mesh or doors? Stainless steel trolleys — yes, BHS can manufacture a non-standard trolley with a closable mesh or doors on the front; such a protective element ensures cleaner storage and protection from dust during transportation; see also Stainless Steel Cabinets and Shelves.
