Summit Commercial Reach-In Refrigerator Description:
Summit Commercial’s line of reach-in refrigeration features durable construction built to NSF-7 commercial standards.
Made in South Korea, the Summit SCR23SSGLH Commercial 23 cu.ft. Reach-In Refrigerator is a commercial all-refrigerator with a complete stainless steel cabinet and double pane tempered glass door for a full product display. The door is self-closing design to help protect stored contents in busy commercial settings where customers may not take the time to make sure the door is closed. It will remain open when pushed to 90º, making it easier to load and unload the unit. The sealed back design helps to simplify cleanup. This unit features a factory-installed lock located towards the top of the door for convenient security. We include a set of locking casters for optional installation. The door has a left hand swing. For the same unit with the door opening from the other side, see the SCR23SSG.
The Summit SCR23SSGLH Commercial 23 cu.ft. Reach-In Refrigerator features a large 23 cu.ft. interior constructed from stainless steel for easy cleanup and lasting durability. The cantilevered shelving system allows you to adjust the four vinyl-coated shelves to virtually any position, making it easy to accommodate any sized item. This unit is designed to fit common commercial baking trays. The LED lighting offers an energy efficient display when the door is opened. It utilizes adjustable cycle defrost operation to avoid temperature spikes, with a top-mounted forced air cooling system to ensure rapid temperature recovery.
To ensure optimum storage conditions, the SCR23SSGLH is equipped with a microprocessor temperature controller that makes it easy for staff to adjust the temperature. The large digital LED readout displays the current and high/low temperatures in Celsius or Fahrenheit. An audible and visual temperature alarm sounds if the unit rises or falls above a user-set rage. Additional alarms include a power failure alert, door open alarm, and a condenser cleaning reminder.
Designed with hydrocarbon refrigerant, the SCR23SSGLH provides an energy efficient solution to large capacity storage. It is ETL-S listed to NSF-7 commercial standards. For a matching solid door frost-free freezer, see the SCFF237.

Shipping FAQ
How long does shipping take after placing an order?
Shipping lead time depends on stock availability and destination; when in stock dispatch is often within a few business days.
Is international shipping available and what should I consider for Melbourne, Australia?
Yes — international shipping can be arranged. For delivery to Melbourne, Australia you should consider:
• Import duties, customs clearance & Goods & Services Tax (GST)
• Site access: check doorway width, corridor/elevator clearance, and floor-loading capacity for the palletized unit (weight ~128 kg)
• Electrical compatibility: This model is specified for 115 V AC/60 Hz (U.S. version) — if you are installing in Australia (230 V/50 Hz) confirm you are ordering the correct variant or arranging suitable step-down transformer/adapter.
How is the unit packaged for transit and what site requirements should be met?
The unit ships palletized with protective packaging. Approx. unpacked footprint ~213 cm H × ~70 cm W × ~79 cm D; allow extra depth (~144 cm) when door open. Delivery site should have a firm, level surface, sufficient entry/door clearance and handling equipment (pallet jack or lift) if needed.
What should I do if my shipment arrives damaged or is delayed?
On delivery inspect the packaging and unit for visible damage or any indication of transit delay. If damage is found: document via photographs, retain packaging and delivery receipt, then contact your supplier with your order and tracking details to initiate a freight claim or replacement.
Application FAQ
How do I install and set up the SCR23SSGLH?
1. Position the unit upright on a firm, level indoor surface in a climate-controlled space; allow clearance behind and above for ventilation; ensure door opening depth (~144 cm) is unobstructed.
2. Connect to a dedicated grounded outlet matching the unit’s specification (115 V AC/60 Hz). For Australian installation ensure the voltage and plug type are compatible or arrange a suitable converter/adapter.
3. Plug in and power on the unit, set the digital controller to your target refrigerator temperature (typical commercial range +2 °C to +4 °C), and allow several hours for internal temperature stabilization before fully loading.
4. Confirm the digital display, alarms (temp, door-open), interior light and shelving are operating correctly, door gasket/seal is intact and airflow is unobstructed.
What best practices should I follow when using this reach-in refrigerator?
• Load items evenly, avoid over-packing and blocking ventilated shelving to maintain airflow and cooling performance.
• Use the glass door display feature to facilitate visual inventory checks and minimize door-open time.
• Label stock for traceability, rotate inventory (first-in/first-out) where relevant, and maintain a clean interior and exterior—especially the self-closing door mechanism and gaskets.
What should I do if a temperature excursion or power interruption occurs?
If internal temperature moves outside the desired range or a power interruption occurs:
• Record the event: date/time, observed temperature, contents affected.
• Relocate critical contents to validated backup refrigeration until conditions stabilize.
• Investigate root cause (door left open, ambient heat load, power/sensor fault).
• Once the unit has recovered and internal temperature is within normal range, verify contents before resuming routine storage.
What maintenance and verification routines are recommended?
• Monthly: Inspect door gasket/seal and handle/lock; ensure unit remains level and wheels/casters are locked.
• Quarterly: Clean condenser/coils (typically top mounted), remove dust/debris from ventilation path, verify fan airflow.
• Periodically: Test digital control panel and alarms, maintain internal logs of minimum/maximum temperature, and keep service/maintenance records for audit readiness.
