The top portion of the front wall has a thicken area and a forward portion of the side walls also have thickened areas that are continuous with the thickened area of the front wall. The thickened areas form a boss which engages a divider wall of a refrigeration unit. The refrigeration unit is removable from the cabinet as a single member.
