Covered & Coastal Outdoor Kitchen Handbook
Use this pathway where shelter, side enclosure or coastal exposure has a major influence on how the outdoor kitchen should be specified and operated.
Planning guidance — final supplied configuration remains project-specific.
Plan for exposure
Salt, wind, rain and UV affect the assembly differently and should be considered with appliance and material selection.
Build maintenance into the design
Provide cleaning, drainage and service access instead of hiding vulnerable components behind permanent finishes.
