LSHC DOWNLOADS
Heated storage that keeps service moving.
The LSHC is a commercial hot cupboard designed to work alongside Linear Series Bain Marie and Ceramic Hotplate cabinets, keeping heated storage close to the point of service.
A built-in tray race supports faster meal service, while sliding doors, fan-forced heat and a separate cupboard controller keep the unit practical through busy service periods.
Available in sizes to suit LSBM and LSCM 4, 5 and 6 units, the LSHC brings heated storage, service and food holding together in one working line.

Everything closer to the point of service.
The hot cupboard keeps heated storage underneath the servery, while the tray race gives trays a clear path along the front. Staff spend less time stepping away from the line and more time serving.
Built-in tray race
Gives staff or diners a clear place for trays, helping meals move through the service line more efficiently.
Fan-forced heat
Circulates warm air through the cupboard for consistent heated storage during service.
Separate temperature control
The cupboard has its own controller, allowing heated storage to be managed independently from the equipment above.
Heated storage built into the servery.
In a busy meal service, the space beneath the counter can do more than simply close off the cabinetry. LSHC turns it into heated storage that remains part of the working service line.
Sliding doors allow staff to access the cupboard without large doors opening into the working area, while an adjustable internal shelf creates two levels for organising suitable heated items and serviceware.
Adjustable feet with recessed rollers help with positioning and manoeuvrability, making the cupboard easier to move when access or cleaning is required.
More than somewhere to keep things warm.
A hot cupboard works best when it becomes part of the flow of the servery. Warm items are stored underneath, food is held or presented above, and trays move along the front.
That arrangement keeps the equipment staff need around the point of service rather than spread between the servery and back-of-house areas.
The result is a working line designed around serving the next meal, not walking away to find what is needed.
Designed to work with the equipment above it.
LSHC4, LSHC5 and LSHC6 are sized to pair with corresponding 4, 5 and 6 position Linear Series Bain Marie and Ceramic Hotplate units.
LSHC4 fits LSBM4 and LSCM4, LSHC5 fits LSBM5 and LSCM5, and LSHC6 fits LSBM6 and LSCM6.
Because the hot cupboard has its own controller, the storage temperature can be managed separately from the food-holding equipment installed above.
Made for busy meal service.
Commercial hot cupboards are useful anywhere heated storage, trays and food service need to work together in one line.
One line. Less back and forth.
The Bain Marie or ceramic hotplate handles the food above. The hot cupboard keeps heated storage directly underneath. The tray race keeps service moving along the front.
Together, they create a more complete working servery: food above, heated storage below, service moving through.
FAQs – Commercial Hot Cupboards & Heated Storage
What is a commercial hot cupboard used for?
A commercial hot cupboard provides enclosed heated storage close to a food service line. It can be used to keep suitable warm items and serviceware accessible during meal service, reducing the need for staff to repeatedly return to back-of-house storage.
Why put a hot cupboard underneath a food servery?
Positioning heated storage beneath the servery makes use of the space directly below the food service equipment. It keeps warm items close to staff and can reduce movement between the counter and other kitchen or storage areas.
What is the advantage of having a tray race on a hot cupboard?
A tray race creates a dedicated surface along the front of the servery for trays to move through the line. This can make meal collection and assisted service more organised, particularly in cafeterias, schools, healthcare and other high-volume dining environments.
What is the difference between a hot cupboard and a Bain Marie?
A Bain Marie is designed to hold and present hot food in pans at the service line. A hot cupboard is enclosed heated storage. The two can work together, with food held and served above and supporting heated storage underneath.
Can a hot cupboard be used with a ceramic hotplate?
Yes. The LSHC range is sized to pair with corresponding LSCM Ceramic Hotplate units. This allows the ceramic food service surface and the heated storage below to operate as part of the same servery.
How does a fan-forced hot cupboard work?
A fan-forced hot cupboard circulates heated air through the internal space rather than relying only on static heat. This helps distribute warm air around the cupboard during operation.
Does the hot cupboard have separate temperature control?
Yes. The LSHC uses a separate hot cupboard controller, so its heated storage can be managed independently from the Bain Marie or Ceramic Hotplate positioned above.
Is a hot cupboard easy to move for cleaning or repositioning?
The LSHC includes adjustable feet with recessed rollers to assist with positioning and manoeuvrability when the unit needs to be moved for access, cleaning or repositioning.
Which Linear Series units does the LSHC fit?
LSHC4 is designed to suit LSBM4 and LSCM4 units, LSHC5 suits LSBM5 and LSCM5, and LSHC6 suits LSBM6 and LSCM6.
