Artisan Insulated 24" Drop-In Ice Bin ARTP-IC - Grill Accessory

Every outdoor kitchen eventually needs somewhere to keep drinks cold that is not the kitchen refrigerator, and that is what this Artisan unit is for. Model ARTP-IC is an insulated drop-in ice bin, 24" wide, that sets into an opening cut in your island counter and hangs below the surface with its rim resting on top. Because it is insulated, ice holds up through an afternoon of guests rather than melting away between rounds. It is a built-in component, not a portable cooler: there is no freestanding housing for it and it cannot be used on a grill cart, so it belongs in a counter run alongside the rest of your built-in equipment. Manufactured in the USA, the ARTP-IC measures 24"W x 17.38"D x 17.63"H, and the full spec sheet is linked below for the installer who has to frame the opening.

ARTP-IC Spec Sheet

Model and Installation Information

The model number is ARTP-IC. It drops in from above into an opening in your island counter, and the rim rests on the finished surface while the body of the bin hangs below. The three figures published for this unit — 24" wide, 17.38" deep and 17.63" high — are the bin's own dimensions, not the finished cutout. Do not cut an opening to those numbers. Work from the ARTP-IC spec sheet linked above for the cutout, and confirm it before the island is built or modified.

The height is the measurement most often missed. At 17.63" tall, the bin needs that much clear space inside the island below the counter, free of framing, gas lines and the tops of any doors or drawers underneath. If you are retrofitting into an existing island, check that interior clearance first. This is a drop-in unit only — it needs a counter or island surface that can be cut into, and it will not work on a grill cart or as a standalone piece.

Who This Model Is Best For

The ARTP-IC suits an outdoor kitchen build where the island is deep enough and tall enough to swallow a 17.63" body under the counter, and where cold drink storage should be a permanent fixture in the run rather than a cooler someone has to carry out. A 24" width makes it a full-bay component, so it sits naturally in a counter run beside a built-in grill or between access doors rather than squeezed into a leftover gap. Anyone cooking on a freestanding Artisan cart should not order it, since there is nothing for it to drop into.
