Stainless steel cabinets with doors are hygienic, durable and easy to clean — ideal for various storage purposes in professional kitchens, restaurants and hotels. Enclosed storage ensures protection of products and equipment from dust and the effects of the kitchen environment. BHS offers cabinets with hinged and sliding doors, as well as specialised cabinets for workwear and cleaning equipment.
Cabinets with hinged doors
Metal Cabinet with Hinged Doors is the most classic and widespread type of cabinet in professional kitchens. Hinged doors provide full access to the cabinet interior without the need for additional mechanisms. The advantage of these cabinets is their simple construction and reliable operation in intensive use conditions. Cabinets with hinged doors are available with one, two or more door sections according to the storage volume required in HoReCa kitchens.
Cabinets with sliding doors
Cabinets with sliding doors are particularly suitable for spaces with limited width in front of the cabinet doors. Sliding doors do not open outwards, so no additional free space is required in front of the cabinet. Cabinets with two sliding doors provide access to half of the cabinet at once, while cabinets with eight sliding doors offer a large-volume storage solution. Sliding doors are more convenient in narrow aisles or between other pieces of furniture in professional kitchens.
Four-door cabinets
Four-door cabinets provide increased storage capacity while maintaining easy access to each section. The four-door design allows the cabinet interior to be divided into several independent zones for different types of products or equipment. These cabinets are popular in larger kitchens and storerooms where extensive storage capacity is needed by zones. Each section can have different shelf configurations, optimising storage efficiency.
Workwear cabinets
Workwear cabinets are a specialised solution for organising staff changing rooms in professional kitchens and catering businesses. They include hanging rods, shoe shelves and, often, a lock for privacy. Workwear cabinets ensure compliance with HACCP requirements for strict separation of personal and work clothing. Stainless steel ensures the durability of these cabinets against moisture, which is important in changing room environments.
Cupboards for cleaning equipment
Cupboards for cleaning equipment are specifically designed for the safe storage of disinfectants, cleaning tools and chemicals in accordance with HACCP requirements. These cupboards are often equipped with ventilation openings to remove chemical fumes and a lock to ensure controlled access. The interior of the cupboards may feature mounting systems for water hoses and cleaning tools. Separate storage of cleaning equipment is a mandatory HACCP requirement.
Material and hygiene
All stainless steel cabinets with doors are made from food-grade steel that meets HACCP requirements and withstands intensive disinfection without surface damage. Stainless steel surfaces are easy to clean and do not absorb odours or bacteria. Cabinet edges and seams are rounded to prevent dirt accumulation in hard-to-reach areas. Regular disinfection ensures consistent compliance with hygiene standards in food processing regulations.
Safety locks
Cabinet locks are an important safety component — they prevent unauthorised access to chemicals, personal items or valuable equipment. Standard cylinder locks provide basic protection, while higher-security areas use combination locks or card systems. The lock material must be resistant to corrosion and mechanical wear, given the humid kitchen environment. BHS offers cabinets with various lock types to meet security requirements.
Size range
Stainless steel cabinets with doors are available in a wide size range — from compact single-door cabinets for small spaces to large-format cabinets with eight doors for spacious storerooms. Cabinet height usually matches standard room height, allowing full use of vertical space. Cabinet depth and width vary according to the types and sizes of equipment to be stored. BHS helps choose the most suitable size according to the space layout.
Installation and placement
Wall mounting is recommended for tall cabinets to prevent tipping when doors are open or in case of impact. Adjustable cabinet legs ensure stability on uneven floors and facilitate cleaning underneath.
Maintenance and cleaning
Regular maintenance of cabinets with doors includes disinfection of the exterior and interior, cleaning of shelves and checking door hinges. The cabinet interior should be cleaned regularly, as accumulated product dust or moisture can create a bacterial environment. Door closing mechanisms and locks should be lubricated periodically to ensure smooth operation. Stainless steel surfaces withstand intensive disinfectants without damage over time.
Cabinet applications in various sectors
Stainless steel cabinets with doors are used not only in HoReCa kitchens but also in medical facilities, food production companies, laboratories and utility rooms. Requirements for cabinets vary by sector — kitchen cabinets prioritise resistance to moisture and heat, while medical facilities require sterility. Stainless steel meets the strictest hygiene requirements in all these sectors. BHS offers suitable cabinet models for any professional sector.
Stainless steel durability
Stainless steel ensures long-lasting service for cabinets with doors without corrosion, deformation or wear in intensive kitchen environments. The material’s resistance to moisture, temperature fluctuations and chemicals guarantees the cabinet’s full functionality for many years. Investing in high-quality stainless steel cabinets pays off with reduced replacement costs and a permanent storage solution.
