Why this hot cupboard earns its place
The Lincat Panther P8P5PT is the extended version of the compact pass-through — 1.85 metres wide, it spans a full service line and handles the volume that carveries, banqueting halls and busy hotels need. The plain stainless steel work surface runs the full length, giving you space to stage plates, rest serving dishes, arrange sides, manage trays and keep condiments at hand while the heated storage underneath keeps your main service items at perfect temperature.
Inside, two chrome shelves sit comfortably in the cabinet, sized for GN 1/1 full-size gastronorm pans. Load them with prepared dishes, slide them home, and the double-skinned construction keeps the interior at your set holding temperature whilst the exterior stays cool to touch. The removable shelves and doors mean you can reconfigure the space as needed, or pull everything out for a deep clean between services. The fitted push bar makes manoeuvring straightforward even when the cupboard is fully loaded; at 171 kg, you'll want two people to reposition it, but the castors mean it slides rather than drags.
The thermostat keeps your food at the exact temperature you dial — most kitchens hold between 60–80°C. Two-year parts-and-labour warranty covers the heating and electrical components.
