Skope SKB1500N-A 3 Glass Door Display or Storage Fridge

The Skope SKB1500N-A is a 1433-litre, three glass door display and storage fridge built around Skope's bottom-mounted ActiveCore 2 refrigeration platform. Designed for eye-level product presentation across a wide range of commercial environments, it combines a climate class 4 (tropical) rating, a maximum ambient operating temperature of 40°C, and R290 natural refrigerant technology to deliver reliable, energy-efficient cooling in demanding hospitality and retail settings.

Every SKB1500N-A ships with SKOPE-connect compatibility via built-in Bluetooth wireless technology, giving operators app-based temperature management and monitoring from a smartphone. An extensive list of configuration options, including door type, colour combinations and interior fittings, allows the cabinet to be tailored to fit the specific presentation and branding requirements of restaurants, cafes, bars, convenience stores, supermarkets, schools, medical facilities and more.

Key Benefits

• Eye-level display across three full-height glass doors accommodates up to 95 product facings (600 ml PET bottle), saving staff restocking time and maximising sales visibility.
• R290 natural refrigerant (99 g charge) carries virtually no global warming impact, reducing the cabinet's environmental footprint while meeting GEMS class 3M1 compliance for energy efficiency.
• The bottom-mounted ActiveCore 2 refrigeration unit is fully integral and removable, enabling fast, safe servicing that cuts repair costs and minimises business downtime compared with conventional fixed systems.
• SKOPE-connect app control via Bluetooth allows remote temperature adjustment (1°C to 15°C range), real-time monitoring and data logging to reduce product waste and protect stock.
• Three 1370 mm, 15 W LED interior lights deliver bright, even illumination across the full display area, enhancing product appeal without significantly adding to running costs.
• A GEMS annual energy consumption of 4.99 kWh/24 h translates to an estimated running cost of approximately $547 per year at $0.30/kWh, supporting lower operating overheads.
• Climate class 4 (tropical) certification confirms consistent performance in hot, humid commercial kitchens and retail environments up to 40°C ambient.
• Multiple colour and door configurations, including white/white, black/black, black/white and stainless steel options, plus optional heated glass doors and shelf lighting, allow the cabinet to be matched to any fit-out or brand identity.
• Manufactured in New Zealand and backed by a five-year parts and labour warranty, the SKB1500N-A is built to commercial-grade standards for long-term reliability.
