Everything You Need to Know About IMC Table Shelves
Worktables are a mandatory element in any commercial kitchen. They are useful for performing prep tasks, storing extra supplies & even holding customer takeout orders. Sometimes you’ll need just a little bit of extra storage area, this is where table mounted shelves come into play.
In this article, we’ll look at the main benefits of equipping your worktable with a table mounted shelf & then give you a breakdown of IMC’s offering. Let’s jump right in.
Why Do You Need Table Mounted Shelves?
Think of it like this: table mounted shelves are like a big attachment for your existing worktable. By attaching a table mounted shelf, you are adding important vertical storage space & promoting organization in the kitchen. This extra storage space can be used to hold heavy cans, bowls, ingredients & other prep supplies.
Extra storage space in the commercial kitchen is always welcome, especially in smaller kitchens where space is limited. Smaller kitchens can simply invest in a table mounted shelf to boost storage capacity. Furthermore, as the name suggests, table mounted shelves attach directly onto a worktable & not on the floor or wall. This leaves you with extra floor & wall space to work with during operations. Space management is key.
The IMC Advantage
IMC’s offering is twofold: single tier (Model #TBV-1) & double tier (Model #TBV-2). Both models are constructed from 18-gauge type 300 series stainless steel. Each of the shelves has channels under welded to 16-gauge stainless steel tubular uprights with provisions for mounting to table. For mounting, round or square legs secure the shelf to the surface.
Standard widths are 12″-18″. Standard lengths are 24″ – 144″. Regarding load capacity, it will depend on the size of your table mounted shelf.
Of course, useful options do exist to better suit your application. Every table mounted shelf can be equipped with a 2″ rear splash and/or a 2″ side splash to protect your walls & floor. Provisions for heat lamps or lights may also be integrated into the product. Lastly, the unit’s size & height can be fully customized to meet your spacing requirements. Have a look below:
