Frequently Asked Questions
Bespoke Stainless Steel Fabrication
What is bespoke stainless steel fabrication?
Bespoke stainless steel fabrication is the custom design and manufacture of stainless steel items built specifically to suit your kitchen layout and operational needs. This includes worktops, shelving, sinks, splashbacks, cupboards, extraction components, and specialist fabricated items for commercial kitchens.
Why choose bespoke stainless steel over off-the-shelf products?
Bespoke fabrication ensures every item fits your space perfectly, maximises workflow, and meets hygiene requirements. Unlike standard units, custom stainless steel can be designed around services, structural features, and specific equipment—resulting in a cleaner, more efficient kitchen.
What types of stainless steel items can be fabricated?
Fabrication can include work surfaces, sink units, tables, wall shelving, gantries, cupboards, plinths, stands, ductwork components, and specialist items for unique operational needs. Each item is built to suit the demands of a commercial kitchen environment.
Is stainless steel required in commercial kitchens?
Stainless steel is widely used in commercial kitchens because it is durable, hygienic, corrosion-resistant, and easy to clean. Environmental health officers typically expect food preparation surfaces to be non-porous and easy to sanitise, making stainless steel the industry standard.
How do I start a bespoke stainless steel fabrication project?
The process starts with a site survey. This allows measurements, usage requirements, access constraints, and installation conditions to be assessed. From there, designs and specifications can be confirmed before fabrication begins.
Do you offer site surveys and quotations?
Yes. A free site survey and quotation is provided to assess your space, discuss requirements, and confirm measurements. This ensures accuracy and helps avoid delays or costly changes later in the project.
What measurements are needed for bespoke stainless steel fabrication?
Accurate measurements are critical. These include room dimensions, wall lengths, service locations, equipment positions, and access routes. All required measurements are typically taken during the site survey to ensure a precise fit.
How much does bespoke stainless steel fabrication cost?
Costs depend on the size, complexity, material thickness, finish, and quantity of items required. While bespoke fabrication may cost more than standard units, it often provides better long-term value through durability, functionality, and reduced modification costs.
Can stainless steel be fabricated to fit existing kitchens?
Yes. Bespoke stainless steel is ideal for refurbishments and retrofits. Items can be fabricated to fit around existing equipment, walls, and services, helping to upgrade hygiene and functionality without a full kitchen replacement.
Do you work with kitchen designers, contractors, and installers?
Yes. Fabrication projects are regularly coordinated with designers, contractors, engineers, and installers. This ensures fabricated items integrate seamlessly with the overall kitchen layout and installation programme.
Is bespoke stainless steel suitable for high-demand kitchens?
Yes. Stainless steel fabrication is designed to withstand heavy daily use in busy commercial kitchens. Properly fabricated and installed stainless steel offers excellent durability, impact resistance, and long service life.
What health and safety standards do you follow?
All fabrication and installation work follows strict health & safety compliant practices. This includes safe handling, secure fixing, and on-site working procedures to ensure a safe environment during installation.
How long does bespoke stainless steel fabrication take?
Lead times depend on design complexity, approval times, and fabrication schedules. Once measurements and specifications are confirmed, fabrication timelines can be clearly outlined to align with your project programme.
Do you fabricate stainless steel for different types of catering environments?
Yes. Bespoke stainless steel fabrication is suitable for restaurants, takeaways, hotels, dark kitchens, schools, healthcare facilities, and other commercial catering environments—each with specific operational requirements.
What areas do you cover for bespoke stainless steel fabrication?
Bespoke stainless steel fabrication services are available across London, Essex, and inside and around the M25, supporting both small-scale kitchens and large commercial projects.
Why choose bespoke stainless steel fabrication for commercial kitchens?
Bespoke stainless steel delivers precision fit, long-term durability, and improved hygiene. Choosing a specialist fabricator ensures items are designed for real-world kitchen use, not just visual appearance.
