Table with 2 Sliding and 1 Hinged Doors

A table with 2 sliding and 1 hinged doors — a stainless steel work table with a combined door system, where 2 sliding doors provide storage efficiency in narrow kitchens (no opening arc required in front), while 1 hinged door provides full access for larger items or equipment storage; this combination is optimal for flexible HoReCa kitchen organisation.

Sliding doors — advantages in a professional kitchen

A table with 2 sliding and 1 hinged doors — sliding doors are especially valuable in narrow professional kitchens where there is little free space between work tables. The advantage of sliding doors in a narrow kitchen — sliding doors do not open outwards, so no free zone is needed for door opening; in narrow aisles between tables, where hinged doors would obstruct traffic, sliding doors are safer and more practical; in restaurant kitchens for chefs or pastry chefs with minimal aisle width, sliding doors are the standard solution. Quick access to frequently used items — sliding doors allow a one-handed movement to open part of the storage area; repeated, quick access during service is practically ergonomic; GN dishes, pans and other frequently used items are ideally placed behind sliding doors; see Work Tables with Drawers and Doors. BHS offers the table with 2 sliding and 1 hinged doors across Europe.

Hinged door — when it is necessary

A table with 2 sliding and 1 hinged doors — one hinged door in combination with 2 sliding doors provides additional flexibility when full access is needed for larger items or equipment. Full access for larger items — the hinged door opens the entire sector in one movement, which is more convenient for placing and removing large dishes, pots or larger equipment; sliding doors with their narrow opening width may restrict access to larger items. Optimal combination — 2 sliding + 1 hinged is a compromise between speed (sliding for everyday use) and functional flexibility (hinged for access to large items); this combination is chosen when the kitchen requires both functions; see the Workbench with Sliding Doors option with purely sliding doors.

Cleaning and disinfection — The stainless steel surfaces of a table with 2 sliding and 1 hinged doors should be cleaned daily after each service; door handles and runners should be checked once a week and lubricated if necessary; see the wide Stainless Steel Furniture HoReCa furniture range.
