Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Refrigerator do in ARK: Survival Ascended?

A placeable storage structure that preserves perishables and extends food spoilage timers, spawnable via GFI code or item ID.

Where can I copy the Refrigerator spawn command?

Use the copy buttons in the Spawn Commands and Blueprint Path sections near the top of this page. Each copies the full Refrigerator command to your clipboard in one click, ready to paste into the console.

Is the Refrigerator spawn code on GameServersCodex accurate?

Yes. The Refrigerator's class name, GFI code, item ID, and blueprint path are reproduced exactly from the live game data and re-checked each patch, so you can copy them straight into your console.

Does the Refrigerator spawn command work in single-player and multiplayer?

Yes, the command is identical in both. Single-player has cheats enabled by default; multiplayer just requires an admin login first. The Refrigerator then spawns the same way.

What is the blueprint path for the Refrigerator?

The full blueprint path is "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Structures/Misc/PrimalItemStructure_IceBox.PrimalItemStructure_IceBox'". Paste it into GiveItem to spawn the exact item: cheat GiveItem "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Structures/Misc/PrimalItemStructure_IceBox.PrimalItemStructure_IceBox'" 1 0 0. Copy it exactly, because the path is case sensitive and must keep its wrapping quotes.

What is the Refrigerator class used for in mods or spawn tools?

Spawn managers, loot-table editors, and RCON macros reference the Refrigerator by its class PrimalItemStructure_IceBox_C or GFI PrimalItemStructure_IceBox. Both uniquely identify it in ARK: Survival Ascended.

How do I open the console to spawn the Refrigerator?

On PC, press Tab to open the admin console, paste the command, and press Enter. On Xbox and PlayStation, open the pause menu and use the on-screen command bar. Then drop in the Refrigerator spawn code from this page.

How do I spawn multiple Refrigerator at once?

Change the quantity argument, the first number after the code. For example cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_IceBox 25 0 0 spawns 25 of the Refrigerator. Stacks respect the item's maximum stack size.

Is the Refrigerator a DLC item or part of the base game?

The Refrigerator is part of the base ARK: Survival Ascended game, so no DLC or map pack is required to spawn or craft it.

What's the difference between GFI and GiveItemNum for the Refrigerator?

Both spawn the Refrigerator. gfi PrimalItemStructure_IceBox matches the item by name and is quickest to type; GiveItemNum 193 uses the numeric ID and is precise for scripting. Same result, different lookup.

What items are related to the Refrigerator?

See the Related section at the bottom of this page for items commonly used alongside the Refrigerator, or open Browse Games to explore the full ARK: Survival Ascended database.

Can I get the Refrigerator without spawning it?

Yes. The Refrigerator can also be obtained through normal ARK: Survival Ascended progression. Admins usually spawn it for speed when testing, running events, or outfitting players, which is what the commands on this page are for.

How do I spawn a higher-quality Refrigerator?

The second number is quality, where 0 is primitive and higher values roll toward ascendant. cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_IceBox 1 100 0 attempts a top tier Refrigerator. Quality only affects items that support tiers; on others it's ignored.

How do I spawn the Refrigerator by its item ID?

Run cheat GiveItemNum 193 1 0 0 in the admin console. GiveItemNum spawns by numeric ID, which is precise for scripts and control panels. The trailing numbers are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag.

What is the Refrigerator used for?

The Refrigerator is a craftable structure that slows the spoilage rate of food and other perishable items stored inside it. Admins use it to set up bases or testing areas without waiting for food to rot, and to understand how food preservation mechanics affect server gameplay and player logistics.

How do I spawn the Refrigerator as a blueprint instead of a finished item?

Set the final argument to 1: cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_IceBox 1 0 1. The last number is the blueprint flag, where 0 gives the crafted item and 1 gives its blueprint (for craftable items; on items with no blueprint the flag is simply ignored).

What's the Refrigerator GFI short code?

The GFI code for the Refrigerator is PrimalItemStructure_IceBox. GFI matches the item by its short blueprint name, so cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_IceBox 1 0 0 is the fastest way to spawn it without typing the full blueprint path.

What's the difference between the Refrigerator GFI code and its blueprint path?

The GFI code PrimalItemStructure_IceBox is a short name for quick spawning; the blueprint path "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Structures/Misc/PrimalItemStructure_IceBox.PrimalItemStructure_IceBox'" is the full engine reference used by GiveItem and spawn tools. Both point at the same Refrigerator.

What do the numbers in the Refrigerator spawn command mean?

In cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_IceBox 1 0 0, the code identifies the Refrigerator, then the three numbers are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag (0 = item, 1 = blueprint). So it spawns one standard Refrigerator.

How do I add the Refrigerator to a starter kit or loadout?

Include cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_IceBox 1 0 0 in your server's kit or spawn script, and set the quantity argument to hand out multiples. Pair it with other item commands from the Codex to build a full loadout.

What's the numeric item ID of the Refrigerator?

The numeric item ID for the Refrigerator is 193. Use it with GiveItemNum, cheat GiveItemNum 193 1 0 0, to spawn by ID instead of by GFI name.

Is the Refrigerator blueprint path case-sensitive?

Yes. "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Structures/Misc/PrimalItemStructure_IceBox.PrimalItemStructure_IceBox'" must be typed exactly, including capitalization and the wrapping quotes. Copy it from this page to avoid a typo that returns an empty spawn.

Why isn't my Refrigerator spawn command working?

Check three things: admin access is enabled (enablecheats on servers), the code is typed exactly (PrimalItemStructure_IceBox), and all three trailing numbers are present. Copying cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_IceBox 1 0 0 directly from this page avoids the most common mistakes.

How do I give the Refrigerator to another player?

Look at the player and run cheat GiveItemToPlayer <PlayerID> 193 1 0 0, or stand near them and use cheat GiveItemNum 193 1 0 0 after selecting them in your admin tools. It's the quick way to hand out the Refrigerator during events and giveaways.

How do I enable admin commands to spawn the Refrigerator?

In single-player, cheats are on by default. On a dedicated or hosted server, log in as admin first with enablecheats <AdminPassword>, then run the Refrigerator spawn command. Without admin access the console rejects it.

What is the class name for the Refrigerator?

The class name for the Refrigerator is PrimalItemStructure_IceBox_C. Class names end in _C and identify the item's blueprint at runtime, which makes them useful for spawn tools, mods, and RCON macros.

Which game is the Refrigerator from?

The Refrigerator is from ARK: Survival Ascended. Every ID, code, and command on this page is specific to ARK: Survival Ascended and its current live build.

Can I spawn the Refrigerator over RCON or on a dedicated server?

Yes. Send the same command through RCON or your control-panel console: cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_IceBox 1 0 0. If your tool already runs with admin context, drop the leading "cheat". It works the same on hosted, self-hosted, and RCON setups.

How current is the Refrigerator spawn info?

The Refrigerator entry was last verified on GameServersCodex on June 28, 2026. We track the live ARK: ASA build, so the IDs and commands here reflect the current patch.

What is the admin command to spawn the Refrigerator?

Open the admin console and run cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_IceBox 1 0 0. That gives you one Refrigerator instantly. The three numbers after the code are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag. Raise the first to spawn a stack, or set the last to 1 to receive it as a blueprint instead of a finished item. Verified against the current ARK: ASA build as of June 28, 2026.
