Description
An 8' x 10' walk-in cooler with a tall 8'7" box and the refrigeration on the roof, so every wall is free for shelving.
The Norlake FTB87810-CX is a Fast-Trak indoor walk-in cooler for restaurants, delis, caterers and grocery back rooms that have outgrown reach-ins. It gives you 687 cu. ft. of cold storage on a 96" x 120" footprint, with an aluminum floor rated for 800 lb per sq. ft. A self-contained 3/4 HP Capsule Pak ECO unit on top runs on R290 and plugs into a 115V NEMA 5-20P outlet, so there are no refrigeration lines to run.

- Shipping weight
- 1,850 lb, delivered as panels on pallets plus the refrigeration unit
The box arrives as flat panels, so it does not have to pass through a doorway in one piece. Measure the room height first; ceiling height is the limit most buyers miss with an 8'7" box.
Full 4" insulated panels
Every wall, ceiling and door panel is 4" of foamed-in-place polyurethane rated R-25 for coolers. Foamed-in cam-lock fasteners and continuous perimeter gaskets pull the panels tight.
Coated steel inside and out
26 gauge corrosion-resistant, stucco-embossed coated steel covers every surface except the floor, so the box wipes down easily.
Aluminum floor included
The smooth aluminum floor carries up to 800 lb per sq. ft. of evenly spread load. If you'll roll loaded carts or dollies inside, ask about Norlake's heavy-duty floor option.
Secure self-closing door
The 26" door has a deadbolt handle that takes a key or padlock, an inside safety release, two cam-lift hinges, a spring closer, a magnetic gasket, a double floor sweep and a heated threshold.
Temperature at a glance
A digital thermometer and light switch with an exterior pilot light is built into the door frame. A high-output LED light above the door stays clear of shelving.
Refrigeration on the roof
The 3/4 HP Capsule Pak ECO sits on the ceiling, so no evaporator hangs inside. It runs on R290, comes set at about 35°F and adjusts from 32°F to 55°F.
Delivery and setup
- Ships by freight as palletized panel crates plus the roof unit. Tailgate delivery drops at your site's entrance; it does not include inside delivery or unpacking.
- Inspect the crates and check panels against the packing list before you sign for the delivery.
- Panels lock together with cam-locks turned by the supplied hex wrench. Start on a level floor.
- Norlake recommends a forklift or material lift and a team to set the Capsule Pak on the roof. An electrician connects the door section; check local permit rules.
- See our shipping policy for delivery details.
Questions buyers ask
How much room is inside?
Norlake lists 687 cu. ft. of capacity. The walls are 4" thick, so the inside floor is about 88" x 112" (96" and 120" outside, minus two 4" walls each way).
How tall does my room need to be?
At least 122" (10'2"). The box is 103" tall, 118" with the Capsule Pak on top, and Norlake asks for 4" of clearance above the unit and 24" on each side for service and airflow.
What power does it need?
The refrigeration unit has a 9 ft cord with a NEMA 5-20P plug, so it needs a 115V, 20A receptacle near the ceiling. The door section (light, thermometer, heater wire) is wired by an electrician to its own 120V junction box. Total listed draw is 12.28 A: 11.4 A for the 3/4 HP Capsule Pak ECO plus 0.88 A for a 26" x 78" door section.
Do I need a floor drain or a plumber?
Normally no. On indoor Capsule Pak ECO units the condensate drains into a pan that the compressor heat evaporates. In very humid rooms Norlake offers an optional electric condensate evaporator.
Can I choose where the door goes?
Yes. Each Fast-Trak ships with two 2-foot filler panels, so the installer can place the door anywhere along a wall. Choose a left or right hinge in the options above when you order. If you add an interior ramp, the door location must be set at order time.
What options can I add?
In the options above you can choose a 26", 30" or 36" door at no extra charge, add 30" high exterior and interior kickplates in stainless steel or aluminum diamond tread, and add Norlake's optional 5-year compressor warranty. The warranty covers the compressor only, for five years from installation; labor and mileage are not included.
Can I put it outside?
No. This is an indoor model, made for a conditioned room with 30% to 60% relative humidity. For an outdoor box, see the Norlake FTOB87810-CX outdoor version, which adds a membrane roof.
What does the warranty cover?
Norlake's warranty covers the panels for 15 years (replacement panels; labor and panel finish are not covered) and parts and labor for 18 months, done by an authorized service provider. A 5-year compressor warranty is available as an option. Claims must reach Norlake within 30 days of a defect.
How soon can I load food?
After installation, run the refrigeration for at least 2 hours and check that the box is down to temperature before loading product, as Norlake's manual instructs.
