Blue Air BLPT72-D2L-HC 72" Refrigerated Sandwich & Salad Prep Table, 2 Doors + 2 Left Drawers
Blue Air BLPT72-D2L-HC — 72" Prep Table with Two Doors and a Two-Drawer Left Section
Where most six-foot prep tables ask you to choose between drawers and shelving, the Blue Air Commercial Refrigeration BLPT72-D2L-HC leans toward bulk capacity: two self-closing swing doors cover the middle and right sections over two adjustable epoxy-coated wire shelves, and only the left section is given over to a pair of drawers. That keeps the majority of the 20.2 cu. ft. cabinet open for tubs, cambros and stacked containers, while an 18-pan drop-in rail and a 33 °F to 39 °F R-290 refrigeration system handle the build line above.
Key Features of the BLPT72-D2L-HC
Every choice in the D2L layout points the same direction — keep as much of the cabinet as possible open for full-size containers.
Two Doors Covering Two Full Sections
The middle and right sections each sit behind their own self-closing swing door, giving you two large open bays instead of a wall of drawer fronts. A stack of 6" hotel pans, a covered cambro or a case of dressing goes straight in without being decanted.
Two Adjustable Wire Shelves
Each door section carries one epoxy-coated wire shelf whose height you can reset on the interior supports. Raise both for tall containers on the floor of the cabinet, or split each bay evenly to double the number of shelf positions across the unit.
Two Drawers Where the Hands Are
The left section keeps a pair of drawers sized for 6" deep pans, which is where most crews put the item they reach for every ticket. It gives you drawer speed on the fast movers without spending the whole cabinet on it.
Air Guard Circulation Across 72-3/8"
Fans force cold air into the enclosed drop-in section while an air guard on the rear wall directs flow through the cabinet, so the far door bay holds the same 33 °F to 39 °F as the drawer section next to the compressor.
Rounded-Corner Stainless Construction
Stainless steel inside and out over a galvanized back and bottom, with a rounded corner design that looks cleaner on the floor and cuts the chance of a knock injury in a tight aisle. The door gaskets are the easy-replacement type.
Four 4" Casters, Front Two Braked
The cabinet rolls on four 4" diameter swivel casters with brakes on the front pair, so a crew can pull the full 326 lb unit out to clean behind it. Blue Air also lists 2.5" casters as an option if you need to drop the working height.
Two door swings to plan around: both doors open on the front face of the middle and right sections, so this unit wants clear aisle in front rather than at one end. The published 30-3/64" depth leaves out 3" for door handles and rear spacers, and the 37-19/32" height leaves out 5" for casters. Net weight is 326 lbs; it ships at 357 lbs.
Ideal Applications
Choose the D2L when your par stock arrives in containers bigger than a drawer will take.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the door and drawer arrangement on the BLPT72-D2L-HC?
Reading left to right, the left section holds two drawers and the middle and right sections are each closed by a self-closing swing door. Each of those two door bays contains one adjustable epoxy-coated wire shelf, giving you two large storage compartments plus a small drawer bank.
How does this compare with the all-drawer or four-drawer 72" models?
All three share the same 72-3/8" three-section shell, 20.2 cu. ft. capacity, 18-pan rail and 1/4 HP R-290 system. The difference is purely how the base is divided: the D2L gives you the most open shelved volume, the D4LM splits it four drawers to one door, and the D6 is all drawers. Pick by container size — the D2L is the one that swallows tubs and cases.
Can I add more shelves to the door sections?
Yes. The unit ships with two epoxy-coated wire shelves and Blue Air lists additional shelves as an accessory, and the interior supports are designed for adjustable shelving height. That lets you set one bay for tall containers and stack the other more densely.
Does the top rail come with pans and a cover?
Eighteen standard 1/6 size, 4" deep food pans are provided with the BLPT72-D2L-HC, together with an insulated pan cover fitted with a stainless steel divider. The divider is what keeps spillage from the rail out of the refrigerated storage area below.
What are the real installed dimensions and weight?
Allow 72-3/8" of width, a working depth of 30-3/64" plus 3" for the door handles and rear spacers, and a height of 37-19/32" plus 5" once the casters are on. The unit weighs 326 lbs net and arrives at 357 lbs, so plan the delivery path and a second set of hands.
How is the cabinet kept from sweating around the doors?
Rather than an electric anti-sweat element, Blue Air runs a hot gas frame heating system that uses heat already produced by the refrigeration circuit to warm the frame. Combined with cyclopentane insulation and easy-replacement door gaskets, it keeps condensation down without adding to the 5.3 amp load.
