Walk-in chillers and freezers built for UAE kitchens and food stores
Walk-in chillers at 0 to +5°C and walk-in freezers at −18°C and colder for restaurants, hotels, supermarkets, caterers and food distributors across the UAE. Small rooms start from AED 15,000, installed.
From AED 15,000 installedChiller, freezer, or both in one room
We size every walk-in room around what you store, how much comes in each day and how often the door opens. Then we choose panels and refrigeration rated for 50°C summers.
A walk-in chiller keeps fresh food at 0 to +5°C. A walk-in freezer holds frozen stock at −18°C or colder. Many kitchens need both, so we often build a combined room: one structure, with the freezer entered through the chiller and each section on its own refrigeration system.

Walk-in chiller vs walk-in freezer: which one you need
Walk-in chiller (0 to +5°C): for fresh produce, dairy, meat for daily use, drinks and prepared food. Panels are usually 75–100 mm thick. It costs less to build and to run than a freezer.
Walk-in freezer (−18°C and colder): for frozen meat, seafood, ice cream and bulk frozen stock. It needs thicker panels (usually 100–150 mm), an insulated heated floor, a heated door frame and a larger refrigeration system, so it costs more.
Combined chiller-freezer: one structure with two rooms and two refrigeration systems. It saves space and some cost when you need both. Read our full walk-in chiller vs freezer comparison.
Prices: small walk-in chillers and freezers start from AED 15,000, fully installed. Larger rooms and cold stores are priced per project after a free site survey. See what affects the price.
Frequently asked questions
Still have a question?
Our team is happy to help. Call, WhatsApp or send us your question and we’ll get back to you quickly.
01How much does a walk-in chiller or freezer cost in the UAE?
Small walk-in chillers and freezers start from AED 15,000, fully installed with panels, door, refrigeration unit and commissioning. Freezers cost more than chillers of the same size. Larger rooms and cold stores are priced per project after a free site survey.
02What temperature does a walk-in chiller or freezer run at?
A walk-in chiller usually runs at 0 to +5°C. A walk-in freezer runs at −18°C or colder, and down to about −25°C for long-term frozen storage.
03Can you build a combined walk-in chiller and freezer?
Yes. A combined room shares one structure, usually with the freezer entered through the chiller, and each section has its own refrigeration system.
04Will a walk-in room cope with UAE summer heat?
Yes, if it is designed for it. We use condensing units rated for high ambient temperatures, size the system for your summer heat load and place the outdoor unit where it gets enough airflow.
05How long does a walk-in chiller or freezer take to install?
It depends on size, panel availability and site readiness. We give you a realistic schedule in your proposal.
06Do you maintain walk-in chillers and freezers?
Yes, including rooms we didn’t install. Maintenance contracts for most restaurant and hotel kitchens are under AED 10,000 a year, and our breakdown line is open 24/7 on +971 50 758 2216.
