Why You'll Love This
121 Cans, Fully Sealed
A solid stainless steel door seals in the cold more effectively than glass, holding 121 standard cans across 3 large heavy-duty shelves.
Reversible on Install
Ships right-hinged as standard and can be changed to left-hinged before dispatch, at no extra cost, so it fits whichever side of the room suits.
Genuinely Quiet
Running at 43 dB, about as quiet as a library, so it works in a kitchen or living space without being intrusive.
Lockable Door
An integrated lock keeps contents secure in a shared space, garage or commercial setting.
Features
Solid Insulated Door
A solid stainless steel door insulates better than glass, and is tested to a different GEMS energy standard than glass-door units, so the star rating isn't directly comparable to the glass-door range.
Schmick ECO Controller
A dedicated Schmick ECO electronic controller and low-energy compressor keep running costs predictable and low.
3 Large Heavy-Duty Shelves
Three large shelves handle a full load of cans or bottles, with the internal layout rated to fit 121 cans.
Cyclopentane Insulation, R600 Gas
Cyclopentane foam insulation and ozone-safe R600 refrigerant hold a steady chill in indoor and covered outdoor spaces.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose a solid door instead of glass?
A: A solid door insulates more effectively than glass and doesn't display contents, which suits a kegerator conversion, commercial use, or anyone who doesn't need a lit display front.
Can I choose which side the door hinges?
A: It ships right-hinged as standard and can be changed to left-hinged before dispatch at no extra cost. It's one product either way, not a separate SKU, so mention the side you need when ordering.
Why is the energy star rating lower than glass-door models?
A: Solid-door units are tested to a different GEMS standard than glass-door units, so a 6-star solid-door rating isn't directly comparable to a glass-door star rating at similar running cost.
Can this fridge go outside?
A: It's rated for indoor use and covered, enclosed outdoor areas, not open-air exposure to direct sun or rain.
Does this fridge have an IP rating?
A: No. The SK range doesn't carry a formal IP rating; it's built for covered indoor or outdoor placement, not wet or fully exposed installation.
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.
