Overview
KITALWARE Rack Trolleys for Dishwasher Baskets are workflow-optimised transport units designed specifically to move standard 500 × 500 mm dishwasher racks between the dishwashing area, prep stations, service lines and storage locations in busy professional kitchens. Unlike general-purpose utility trolleys that require aftermarket adapters, these units are built from day one with precision-spaced guide rails sized exactly to accept industry-standard dishwasher basket dimensions without wobble, tilt or jamming.
The collection offers three tier configurations matched to different kitchen scales: a compact 4-tier model (H1000 mm) suited to smaller operations and space-constrained areas; a high-capacity 7-tier model (H1800 mm) that maximises vertical throughput in large central kitchens; and an innovative 9×2 dual-column configuration (1095 × H1700 mm) that holds 18 baskets across two parallel columns — ideal for sorting clean/dirty flows side-by-side. Every model rolls on heavy-duty swivel casters with at least two lockable wheels for stationary positioning during loading.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are non-standard basket sizes supported?
A: The standard guide rails are calibrated for 500 × 500 ± 5 mm baskets (the most common global standard). If your operation uses alternative sizes (e.g., 450 × 450 for smaller units or 550 × 550 for oversized), we can adjust rail spacing to special order. Provide your exact basket external dimensions when requesting a quote.
Q: What is the weight capacity per tier?
A: Each individual shelf/guide level is rated for approximately 35–40 kg static load (a fully loaded wet basket). The 7-tier model’s total capacity is therefore approximately 245–280 kg distributed evenly. Avoid loading only the top tiers — distribute weight from bottom up for maximum stability.
Q: Can this be used for purposes other than dishwasher baskets?
A: Absolutely — the 505 × 550 mm internal spacing also accommodates GN 1/1 trays, sheet pans, cutting boards stored vertically, and stacked pizza screens. Many customers use these as multi-purpose storage trolleys in addition to their primary dish-rack function.
Q: How does the 9×2 dual-column model work?
A: The 9×2 model has two parallel columns of 9 tiers each (total 18 positions), arranged back-to-back with a shared central frame. This design allows you to designate one column for “dirty inbound” baskets and the opposite column for “clean outbound” baskets — eliminating cross-contamination risk while maximising density within a single footprint.
