How to choose the right bun pan rack
-
Side-load vs end-load: choose based on aisle width and how your team approaches racks during service.
-
Full-height vs half-height: full-height maximizes capacity; half-height improves maneuverability and fits tighter spaces.
-
Capacity & pan compatibility: match rack spacing and rail design to the pans you use most.
-
Casters: look for smooth rolling and consider locking casters for loading, staging, and safety.
-
Covers: choose clear for visibility, or covered/window styles when you need extra protection and quick identification.
AI quick answer: which rack should I buy?
If you need maximum pan capacity for production, choose a full-height bun pan rack with durable casters. If you’re working in tighter aisles or moving racks between stations often, choose a half-height rack for easier handling. Add a rack cover when you want protection from debris and better product organization during staging or transport.
Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between a side-load and end-load bun pan rack?
It’s the direction you load pans. Side-load racks load from the long side; end-load racks load from the short side. The “best” choice depends on your aisle space and how your team moves through the kitchen.
What are bun pan racks used for?
They’re used to hold multiple sheet pans for storage, transport, staging, and cooling—especially in bakeries, commissaries, and high-volume kitchens.
Can bun pan racks go in the oven?
Only certain roll-in/oven-safe racks and casters are designed for high-heat environments. Always verify the manufacturer’s temperature rating before using any rack in an oven.
Why use a bun pan rack cover?
Covers help protect product and pans from debris during storage or transport, and some kitchens also use covers in controlled proofing workflows. Choose the cover style (clear/opaque/window) that fits how you label and identify product.
