Glass door bar fridge
Front-Venting Bar Fridge With Noctua-Quiet Fans
The Schmick 121L is a front-venting glass door bar fridge holding 132 cans, with heated glass to stop condensation. Front venting lets it slide into a cabinet or under-bench cavity without needing side airflow.

Perfect For
- Under-bench cabinetry and joinery where side airflow isn't available
- Home bars and living areas wanting the quietest fans in the front-venting range
- Buyers who want a choice of stainless or black finish, in either door hinge
Why You'll Love This
132 Cans, Front-Venting Design
Front venting means the fridge slides into a cabinet or under-bench cavity with minimal side clearance, instead of needing open air on both sides.
Cools to 0°C Past 38°C
The compressor and heated glass hold 0°C in ambient heat past 38°C, backed by a Danfoss electronic controller and quiet Noctua fans.
Stainless or Black Finish
Choose an all-stainless grille, or a black grille for $50 more, both in either door hinge.
Noctua-Quiet at 43 dB
Genuine Noctua fans, more commonly found in high-end PCs, keep this one of the quietest units in the range.
Features
Front Venting for Built-In Installs
The vent grille sits on the front face rather than the sides, so it can be framed into cabinetry with minimal clearance instead of standing exposed.
Danfoss Electronic Controller
A German/Danish Danfoss controller, paired with a Meanwell transformer and Noctua fans, keeps operation stable and genuinely quiet.
Embedded LED Strip Lighting
LED strips built into both sides and the roof switch between white and blue at the push of a button, without adding bulk inside the cabinet.
Polished Mirror Stainless Interior
A polished mirror stainless interior sits behind the cabinet finish of your choice, lockable for security in a shared space.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this fridge go outside?
A: It's rated for indoor use and covered, enclosed outdoor areas out of direct sun, not open-air exposure. No glass door bar fridge is designed to sit in direct sunlight.
Can I get it left-hinged?
A: Yes. The door is available right or left hinged at the same price; My Acre can arrange whichever side suits the space.
Stainless or black?
A: Stainless is $1,217 and black is $1,267, both with a polished mirror stainless interior and switchable LED lighting, in either hinge.
What does front venting mean?
A: The vent grille sits on the front face rather than the sides, so the fridge can be framed into cabinetry with only 10mm side clearance instead of standing exposed with open sides.
How many cans does it hold?
A: 132 standard 375 mL cans across 3 large shelves.
How loud is it running?
A: 43 dB, about as quiet as a library and well below normal conversation (60 dB), thanks to genuine Noctua fans.
What's the warranty and who handles a claim?
A: 2 years parts and labour. My Acre manages the claim directly so buyers aren't left chasing an overseas supplier.
What size opening do I need if I'm building it into cabinetry?
A: The fridge itself is 495W x 570D x 800H mm. Build the cavity to at least 515W x 620D x 810H mm to allow clearance and airflow, or leave it freestanding with no surrounding cabinetry at all.
