What should you look for in stainless storage racks?
Match the rack to what it will hold and where it will go. For refrigerator racks, look at cabinet compatibility, pan dimensions, runner spacing, and loading limits. For wall-mounted racks, consider wall construction, the fasteners used, rated load, and access for cleaning.
Empura offers the E-PR6 six-pan rack and the E-PR15 fifteen-pan rack for the E-KB27R, E-KB54R, and E-KB81R models in the Empura refrigeration line. Empura's E-WPS series pot racks come in 24-, 36-, 48-, and 60-inch widths, with an 18-gauge stainless steel shelf, galvanized hooks, and NSF certification. NSF publishes the relevant food equipment standards. Pan counts and hook counts describe storage positions, so check the documentation for total weight limits.

Frequently asked questions about stainless storage racks
Can Empura refrigerator pan racks fit any reach-in refrigerator?
They are made for specific cabinets. The E-PR6 and E-PR15 list the E-KB27R, E-KB54R, and E-KB81R as compatible, so verify the exact model before installing.
Do six-pan and fifteen-pan ratings specify pan size?
They count pan positions. Supported pan dimensions, spacing, and loading instructions are in the rack documentation.
Is a refrigerator pan rack the same as a mobile bun pan rack?
They serve different jobs. A refrigerator rack sits inside a compatible cabinet, while a mobile bun pan rack is a wheeled unit for moving and staging sheet pans.
Can a pot rack be mounted on drywall?
Anchor it into wall studs, backing plates, or solid masonry, because drywall alone is not built to carry a loaded rack. Follow the installation instructions and local building requirements.
How should pans be arranged inside a refrigerator rack?
Leave the cabinet's air passages open and the clearance its operating instructions call for. Separate foods according to your food safety procedures and stay within the rack's loading limits.
