Office Refrigerator & Freezer
No matter the size of your operation, employees will expect to find an office refrigerator in the break room. Depending on the space available in your facility, this piece of equipment can be a basic undercounter model, a larger reach-in with dual temperature sections for freezing and refrigeration, or separate refrigerator and freezer units to accommodate hundreds of employees.

Common Questions About Office Refrigerators
Which office refrigerator should I buy?
There are several aspects to consider when deciding which break room refrigerator you need, including the amount of available space, the number of employees that will use the equipment each day, and what will be stored. Knowing the footprint of the break room for which you are purchasing equipment will help you choose between a countertop unit, an undercounter refrigerator or freezer, or a full-size reach-in, as each style has vastly different space requirements. However, the office fridge you choose should be large enough to ensure every employee is able to store food and beverages throughout their shifts. Purchasing a break room refrigerator that does not have enough storage space will inevitably lead to overfilling, resulting in unnecessary strain on the machine's components, performance issues, and improperly cooled food.
Employees bringing prepackaged microwave meals and other frozen foods will expect to have access to frozen storage. An undercounter office freezer may be installed separately from a larger refrigerator to meet these needs. However, if you need to accommodate a large amount of refrigerated and frozen items in a small space, your break room may benefit from a one-section combination refrigerator/freezer, which can be as narrow as 25 inches.
What should I look for when buying an office refrigerator?
Whether the office fridge's upkeep will be employees' responsibility or a task delegated to a janitorial staff, communal spaces typically benefit from equipment that is easy to clean. For commercial refrigeration, this can mean a bottom-mounted compressor that is readily accessible for maintenance, lined interiors with coved corners, and durable stainless steel construction capable of withstanding being accessed hundreds of times each day. Additional features, such as self-closing doors that provide a secure seal, can help prevent temperature fluctuations, operator errors, and performance issues.
What is the smallest full-size refrigerator?
Full-size refrigerators, or reach-in refrigerators, can have one, two, or three sections. One-section reach-in refrigerators are available in a number of widths, ranging from 25 inches to 36 inches, but refrigerator capacity is measured in cubic feet. Since wider units may not always have more cubic feet, you should keep in mind the dimensions of a product as well as its storage capacity when choosing an office refrigerator for your business.
