disagree  Tony M: I think you'll find this refers to vertical 'bays' rather than horizontal 'shelves' — note it says "at eye level"; which would clearly be impossible for ALL shelves!

disagree  Tony M: There is nothing in the context given that mentions any form of 'doors', so this really amounts to over-interpretation. / So what? No connection with given context.

neutral  Tony M: I can't wholeheartedly agree, but this certainly is a more plausible interpretation of EN 'drop' than certain other suggestions...

baie verticale


Explanation:
I think this is talking about the vertical 'sections' of the refrigerated displays — though more context would help a great deal!

'compartiment vertical' would of course amount to the same thing: but please note that there is NO MENTION AT ALL in the source text of what type of doors (if any at all!) these 'drops' have!

neutral  Premium✍️: To follow your logic and quote your exact words: "There is nothing in the context given that mentions any form of 'vertical bay', so this really amounts to over-interpretation"
3 hrs
  -> Wrong! 1) 'drop' is jargon in many fields for 'a vertical section' 2) sign must be displayed at eye-level in each = BIG CLUE!
neutral  B D Finch: You seem to be closer to the right track than those barking up the "compartment" tree..
