How Much Space Does an Outdoor Kitchen Need?

Start with the equipment and movement the kitchen needs, then test the available site. A compact kitchen can work well if doors, appliances and people are not competing for the same space.

02

Allow operating space

BBQ lids, refrigerator doors, drawers and access panels need room to open without blocking the main circulation route.
