ZIP bar low straight counter section for adaptable bar configurations
The ZIP bar low straight counter section is a smart, modular addition to any professional event bar setup, designed with versatility and accessibility in mind. Ideal for high-pressure environments like sports hospitality lounges and backstage festival service zones, this counter-height section fits seamlessly into a run of ZIP bar units to support more specific operational functions.
While standard ZIP bar sections create a uniform height across the main serving counter, this lower section intentionally breaks that line—allowing for enhanced staff interaction and improved functionality. It is most often used as a till station, coffee machine base, or collection point for returning glasses and accessories, giving bar teams a clearly defined area for alternative service functions without disrupting the flow of the wider bar area.
Its modular nature means it integrates effortlessly alongside ZIP straight bar sections, giving you the freedom to shape a layout that best suits your venue’s spatial constraints and workflow requirements. Whether you need one low section or multiple points for staff support across a long counter run, this adaptable unit is built to serve with both style and reliability.
Furniture designed for service efficiency and clean presentation
In fast-paced event environments, it’s crucial to choose bar furniture that improves operations without compromising the look and feel of your hospitality area. The ZIP bar low straight counter section is designed to match the aesthetic of the full ZIP bar system, including chrome corner and edge fittings that create a polished, professional finish throughout.
This section’s reduced height makes it especially well-suited for positioning espresso machines, hot water urns, or cash tills—anything that benefits from being placed at a more accessible working level. It also creates a more ergonomic setup for staff collecting glassware, preparing drink orders, or managing returns. This helps streamline service and reduce bottlenecks at peak times.
The visual consistency of the chrome framework and panelling across the entire ZIP bar range ensures that even when this lower section is added, the overall appearance remains seamless and deliberate. It’s a practical design solution that looks intentional, not improvised.
This is especially useful in hospitality environments that prioritise branded presence and guest-facing professionalism—whether that’s a sponsor-hosted fan lounge at a major sports arena or a branded drinks experience at a top-tier music festival.
