The quick answer
What is a makeline fridge?
A makeline — also called a refrigerated prep table, sandwich prep bench, pizza prep counter, salad prep table or cold rail — is a commercial refrigerator with a chilled well of ingredient pans across the top and a refrigerated cabinet below. Kitchens use it to keep toppings and fillings food-safe while staff build orders on the line. Ace Fridge Repairs provides same-day makeline repairs across Sydney, 24/7, restoring your unit to a safe 5°C or below with a 12-month warranty.

Common makeline problems we repair in Sydney
Our vans carry the parts that fail most on prep lines — thermostats, gaskets, fans and controllers — so most breakdowns are fixed in a single same-day visit.
Not cooling / won't hold temp
The whole unit drifts warm and pans creep above 5°C. Usually a refrigerant issue, failed compressor or dirty condenser coil.
Top rail warm, base cold
Split-cooling makelines fail on one circuit first. We trace an iced evaporator, dead rail fan or faulty top-well thermostat.
Frost & ice build-up
Ice on the coil or well blocks airflow and stops cooling. We fix the defrost cycle, sensor or leaking gasket causing it.
Water leaking or pooling
A blocked condensate drain or torn gasket sends water onto the floor — a slip and hygiene hazard. Cleared and sealed on the spot.
Faulty thermostat / controller
A bad thermostat or temperature sensor runs the compressor non-stop or not at all. We recalibrate or replace the control.
Worn door & lid gaskets
Perished seals let cold air escape, overwork the compressor and spike your power bill. Genuine gaskets fitted fast.
Compressor & fan motor faults
Evaporator or condenser fan failure and compressor faults kill cooling. Diagnosed with proper tools, not guesswork.
Electrical faults & tripping
Nuisance tripping, dead displays or wiring faults. Traced and repaired safely by licensed technicians.
Noisy operation
New buzzing, rattling or clicking means a part is failing. We find the source before it becomes a breakdown.
