New Venue Openings Equipment — DK Services NW
Opening a pub, bar, restaurant or club? We supply and install your glasswashers, dishwashers, ice machines and bottle coolers ready for opening night. Hire from £10 a week to protect your launch budget, or buy outright.
Most new venues need the same four machines. The trick is sizing them before you know exactly how busy you'll be.
If you're unsure, a 16–18 pint machine (£20/week) suits most new bars. We'll help you estimate from your capacity and opening hours.
Hire from £18/week • Buy from £995
Estimate from your drinks menu: cocktail-led openings need far more ice than traditional pubs. Machines run from 22kg (£18/week) to 240kg (£40/week).

Hire from £10/week • Buy from £495
Serving food? Plan drainage and power for an under-counter (£25/week) or pass-through (£48/week) dishwasher before the kitchen is fitted.

Fit-outs are stressful enough. We take the bar equipment off your list.
Hire from £10 a week keeps cash free for fit-out, stock and staff, instead of tying it up in equipment before you've taken a penny.
Tell us your opening date and we'll plan delivery and installation around your shopfitters, plumbers and electricians.
Our engineers install and test every machine before handover, so it's ready to go on opening night.
On hire, callouts are free for life and two services a year are included, so problems in your first busy weeks are covered.
Things to sort before your equipment arrives.
Glasswashers and dishwashers need suitable power supplies — check with your electrician early in the fit-out.
Each washer needs a water supply and a drain nearby. Plan these with your plumber before the bar is built.
Ice machines and coolers need room to breathe. Leave space around vents so they run efficiently.
Book delivery and installation for once your bar and kitchen are fitted. Call 0161 303 2337 to plan it.
Fill in your details and one of our specialists will call you back within the hour. Hire or buy — we will find the right equipment for your new venues.
Most venues need a glasswasher, an ice machine and bottle coolers, plus a dishwasher if you serve food. We can supply all four on one hire agreement.
Many new venues hire to protect their launch budget — hire starts from £10 a week with free callouts for life. Buying outright suits operators who want to own the kit. We'll quote both.
Get in touch as early as you can in your fit-out, so we can plan delivery around your other trades and your opening date.
Most new bars start with a 16–18 pint glasswasher and a 44kg ice machine. Tell us your capacity and opening hours and we'll recommend sizes.
