Atosa MBF8501GRL 27-Inch One Door Commercial Reach-In Freezer, Left Hinge, 19.1 cu. ft.
Atosa MBF8501GRL 27-Inch One Door Commercial Reach-In Freezer, Left Hinge, 19.1 cu. ft.
The Atosa MBF8501GRL is a one door commercial reach-in freezer with a bottom mount compressor. It holds 19.1 cu. ft. at -8°F to 0°F and plugs into a standard 115V outlet.
It is the left-hinge version of our MBF8501GR: same 27" cabinet, same 19.1 cu. ft., but the door swings open to the left. Pick it when the freezer sits with a wall or the end of a line on its left side, so the open door stays out of your walkway.

A Left Hinge Bottom Mount Freezer
The Atosa MBF8501GRL is a left hinge single door commercial freezer with 19.1 cu. ft. of frozen storage in a 27-inch-wide cabinet. Its door opens to the left, making this bottom mount reach in freezer a practical choice when the kitchen layout calls for that door swing. It has the same capacity and core features as the MBF8501GR, with the hinges on the opposite side.
Where the Left-Hinge MBF8501GRL Fits Best
- A left wall or corner: the door opens against the wall and stays out of your walkway
- Work area on the right: you reach in from the right side, right beside your prep table or line
- Side-by-side units: place it to the left of the MBF8501GR so both doors swing open away from each other
- Cook lines: frozen proteins and fries right where you cook
Why Kitchens Choose the MBF8501GRL

Cooling and Controls
A 1/2 HP compressor runs on R290, a natural refrigerant. A digital controller holds -8°F to 0°F, and down duct airflow spreads cold air evenly from top to bottom. Automatic evaporation takes care of condensate water for you. It is a self-contained, plug-in unit, so there is nothing to plumb.
Built for a Commercial Kitchen
The inside and outside are stainless steel, so it stands up to spills and daily cleaning. The back is galvanized steel. The door closes on its own and stays open when you swing it all the way, which makes loading easier. It opens to 105°. The door locks, the handle is recessed so it does not catch on carts, and magnetic gaskets seal tight. It rolls on pre-installed 4" casters, so you can pull it out to clean behind it.
Why Bottom Mount?
On this freezer the compressor sits under the cabinet. It is easy to reach for cleaning and service. Prefer the compressor up top, away from floor dust and grease? See our top mount freezers.
