Outdoor Kitchens designed, built and installed for Los Angeles — houses with strong architectural identities, on streets that are hard to deliver to. Our Los Angeles showroom is on South Spring Street downtown.
California's outdoor kitchens are the most fully used of anywhere we build, because the season barely ends — which means they get specified as real kitchens with real appliances rather than as a grill in a counter. Coastal sites take marine air, inland sites take hard sun, and both take a construction that was made for outdoors. In parts of the state, fire-zone requirements affect what can be built outside, so those need confirming before anything is specified.
Los Angeles housing is stylistically specific in a way most markets are not. A Spanish Colonial in Hancock Park and a mid-century in Silver Lake want genuinely different cabinetry, and the fastest way to get a house wrong is to apply one language to both.
Hillside properties are an access problem. Narrow streets, long stair runs from the kerb and no staging area mean cabinets are sized to be carried by hand and delivered in sequence rather than all at once.
Seismic requirements mean tall cabinetry and heavy runs are anchored properly. That is straightforward when it is planned and awkward when it is not.
None of this changes by location. It is the standard every outdoor kitchen leaves the shop to, Los Angeles included.
Outdoor cabinetry is a materials problem before it is a design one. Sun, rain, humidity and — near any coast — salt will destroy an indoor cabinet finished for an indoor life. We build outdoor kitchens in marine-grade aluminium with 304 stainless hardware, sealed doors and drawers, and integrated drainage, because that is what survives.
Twice as thick as most stainless cabinetry on the market and lighter, which also makes it easier to deliver and install.
Door slides, hinges, pulls and levelling legs are all outdoor grade, because the hardware fails long before the box does.
Doors and drawers are sealed with integrated drainage, so water that gets in has somewhere to go.

We work throughout Los Angeles, including Hancock Park, Los Feliz, Silver Lake, Brentwood and Venice. The housing here is Spanish Colonial and Craftsman houses, mid-century hillside homes, and a steady flow of contemporary rebuilds, and the cabinetry is specified for it rather than to a national standard.
Our Los Angeles showroom is at 506 S Spring St. Bring the plans, or send them over and we will itemise the cabinetry by room before you visit.
Every project is photographed room by room with the materials and the detailing listed, so you can see how a job like this is actually put together before you commit to one.

You can also search every finish we specify and every appliance we design around.
One shop draws, finishes and installs all of it, which is why the closet matches the kitchen and there is one number to call when something needs adjusting.
