When your customers need a refrigeration solution that fits their exact space, workflow, and industry requirements, off-the-shelf just doesn’t cut it. At Powers Equipment Company, we specialize in fully customized commercial refrigerators and freezers engineered to meet the precise demands of every business application. Whether you’re a dealer supplying a regional grocery chain or a distributor serving the foodservice industry, we deliver custom-built refrigeration that makes your product offering stand out.
Why Custom Commercial Refrigeration Matters for Dealers & Distributors
No two businesses cool the same products in the same space. A craft brewery needs something entirely different than a hospital pharmacy or a high-volume convenience store chain. When you partner with a manufacturer that can customize, you expand what you can offer and you win more sales.
Here’s why customization is increasingly the deciding factor for commercial buyers:
Precise dimensions to fit unique layouts in kitchens, retail spaces, and laboratories
Industry-specific temperature requirements from -40°F deep freeze to precise pharmaceutical cold storage, standard models rarely comply.
Branding and design options operators want refrigeration that matches their space and reinforces their brand identity.
Custom door configurations, shelving, and access points to improve workflow efficiency.
Compliance and certification needs vary by industry and geography.
What Powers Equipment Company Can Customize for You
We approach every order as a blank slate. Our engineering and manufacturing teams work directly with dealers and distributors to spec out every detail. Here’s a look at the core customization capabilities we offer:
1. Custom Dimensions & Form Factors
Standard sizing rarely works in non-standard spaces. We manufacture commercial refrigerators and freezers in virtually any dimension.
Options include:
Tall or low-profile units.
Wide or narrow configurations.
Undercounter refrigeration.
Built-in or integrated systems.
Custom depth units for tight spaces.
If your customer has a unique wall layout, alcove, or floor plan, our team can design a solution built to those precise measurements.
2. Specialized Temperature Ranges & Zones
From multi-zone refrigerator-freezer combos to ultra-low temperature freezers for biomedical storage, we engineer units to hold precise temperature ranges. Common applications we build for include:
Foodservice & food retail (32°F–41°F refrigeration; 0°F and below freezing)
Floral display cases (34°F–38°F with humidity control)
Doors aren’t just access points, they’re a key part of how a unit functions and sells products. Powers Equipment offers full customization for door styles, configurations, and accessibility features.
Options include:
Glass display doors for merchandising.
Solid insulated doors for storage applications.
Reach-in refrigeration units.
Roll-in and pass-through configurations.
Custom door counts and swing directions.
Locking systems and specialty hardware.
These options help businesses improve workflow while enhancing product visibility and accessibility.
4. Interior Layout, Shelving & Storage Systems
Interior shelving, drawer configurations, hanging systems, and rack mounts can all be tailored to the products being stored. This is especially valuable for specialty retailers, butcher shops, pharmacies, and bakeries whose inventory requires unique organizing systems inside their refrigeration units.
5. Exterior Finishes, Branding & Panel Options
For dealers who supply retail environments, aesthetics matter. Powers Equipment offers several finish and branding options that allow dealers and distributors to provide visually integrated refrigeration solutions.
Exterior customization options include:
Stainless steel finishes.
Powder-coated color options.
Panel-ready exteriors for built-in applications.
Custom handles and trim details.
Private labeling and logo placement.
6. Refrigerant Selection & Energy Efficiency Options
As regulations around refrigerants continue to tighten, buyers increasingly need units built with specific refrigerants, including low-GWP and natural refrigerant options. We work with dealers and distributors to ensure units are specced for the regulatory environment of their end market, and we build in energy-efficient components that can help clients meet sustainability goals and lower operating costs.
