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.
Covered and coastal outdoor kitchen planning handbook
01

Coordinate cooking and enclosure

Review appliance heat, smoke and clearances with the roof and any blinds or glass before the kitchen layout is frozen.

02

Plan for exposure

Salt, wind, rain and UV affect the assembly differently and should be considered with appliance and material selection.

03

Build maintenance into the design

Provide cleaning, drainage and service access instead of hiding vulnerable components behind permanent finishes.

Move from knowledge to project
