Commercial Gas Range — Burner, Griddle & Oven Configurations Built for High-Volume Kitchens
A Commercial Gas Range must do more than produce a large flame. It must support the menu during peak service, fit the kitchen line, match the available gas supply and remain practical to clean and maintain. VOCook supplies heavy-duty floor-standing restaurant ranges and countertop gas hot plates for restaurants, hotels, catering kitchens, chain projects, equipment distributors and private-label buyers.
Choose from open-burner models, burner-and-griddle combinations, oven-base ranges and compact countertop units. Share your menu, peak-hour pan count, available width, fuel type and destination market, and our team will help you narrow down a suitable configuration before quotation.
Choose the Range by Cooking Workflow, Not Burner Count Alone
A range should be selected around the dishes produced at the same time.
A kitchen that prepares sauces, soups and sautéed dishes may need more open burners. A breakfast or burger operation may gain more from a mixed burner-and-griddle top. A high-volume restaurant may require a wider unit with two ovens, while a small kitchen may only need a countertop hot plate added to an existing cookline.
Before comparing models, determine:
- How many pans operate simultaneously during the busiest service period
- The diameter and weight of the cookware
- Whether the menu requires open-flame cooking, griddle cooking or both
- Whether an oven is needed below the range
- The maximum available width and depth
- Natural gas or LPG type and inlet pressure
- Local certification and installation requirements
- Whether the purchase is for one kitchen, a chain rollout or wholesale distribution

How to Read a Commercial Gas Range Spec Sheet Before You Order
Before comparing suppliers, buyers should be comparing these four numbers — this is what actually determines whether a commercial gas range fits your kitchen:
- Burner Count & Individual BTU — Each burner on our commercial gas range units is independently rated and independently controlled, so buyers can calculate true output per station rather than relying on a single combined figure that hides weak burners.
- Griddle & Charbroiler Add-Ons — Configurations from 12" to 36" griddle sections, available with the same cast-iron burner assembly across the range width, for kitchens combining open-flame and flat-top cooking on one unit.
- Oven Base Capacity — Standard and double-oven base options beneath the burner top, sized to the same footprint as your burner configuration — critical for kitchens that need baking or roasting capacity without a separate standalone oven.
- Gas Type Compatibility — Every commercial gas range we ship is configured for Natural Gas or Liquid Propane per your market; LPG-to-NG (or reverse) conversion is confirmed before production, not left for your installer to figure out on-site.
Why Import Buyers Source Their Commercial Gas Range From Us
- Cast-Iron Burners, Stainless Steel Body, No Shortcuts on Material — Every commercial gas range unit uses cast-iron burner grates and full stainless steel construction, built to withstand daily heavy pan loading rather than intermittent light-duty use.
- Robertshaw Control Systems on Qualifying Models — A recognized thermostatic control component your buyers and on-site inspectors already trust, rather than an unbranded generic valve that raises questions during due diligence.
- BTU Range From 84,000 to 150,000+ — Covering everything from compact tabletop gas stoves to full 10-burner double-oven configurations, so distributors can source a full range matrix from one factory instead of splitting orders across suppliers.
- Certification Matched to Destination Before Production — CE for Europe, ETL for the US and Canada, SABER for Saudi Arabia, ISO9001 across the board — confirmed against your shipping destination up front.
- OEM/ODM for Private-Label Range Programs — 12 in-house engineers support burner configuration changes, control panel branding, and BOM adjustments for distributors building their own range line rather than reselling generic stock.
- Built for Container-Volume Orders, Not Single-Unit Retail — Our production and logistics are structured around bulk and repeat wholesale orders, with accurate quotations delivered within 8 hours regardless of order complexity.
Choosing the Right Commercial Gas Range Configuration
- Compact kitchen or satellite location → 2-4 burner tabletop or single-oven commercial gas range in the 84,000–130,000 BTU range.
- Full-service restaurant with breakfast/griddle menu items → 4-6 burner configurations with 12"-24" griddle sections and a standard oven base.
- High-volume diner or fast-casual chain unit → 6-10 burner commercial gas range with double oven base, 200,000+ BTU total output.
- Markets running bottled LPG rather than piped natural gas (common across parts of the Middle East, Africa, and Southeast Asia) → Confirm LPG configuration at order stage; conversion kits available where NG infrastructure isn't guaranteed at final installation site.
- Distributor building a multi-SKU catalog → Combine multiple burner/griddle/oven configurations into a single bulk order and shipping schedule rather than sourcing each configuration from a different factory.

Frequently Asked Questions
What BTU output do I actually need for a commercial gas range in a high-volume kitchen?
Continuous-duty kitchens generally need 150,000+ total BTU across a 6+ burner configuration; lighter-volume or satellite kitchens can run efficiently on 84,000–130,000 BTU compact units. We can size this against your daily covers and menu type.
Can you configure a commercial gas range for Liquid Propane instead of Natural Gas?
Yes — gas type is confirmed at order stage and configured in production, not retrofitted after shipment. This is especially important for markets running bottled LPG rather than piped natural gas.
Do you supply commercial gas ranges for bulk or container-volume orders?
Yes — our production is structured for distributor and chain-scale orders, not single-unit retail. Multiple burner/griddle/oven configurations can be combined into one purchase order and shipping schedule.
What certifications come with your commercial gas range units?
CE, ETL, ISO9001, and SABER, matched to your destination market before production starts. Confirm your shipping country and we'll specify the applicable certification set.
Can I get a private-label commercial gas range line for my distribution business?
Yes — our OEM/ODM team supports control panel branding, burner configuration changes, and BOM customization on qualifying order volume.
How fast can I get a quote on a custom commercial gas range configuration?
We provide an accurate quotation within 8 hours of receiving your burner count, griddle/oven requirements, and gas type specification.
