What Are Forge Outdoor Kitchens Made From?

Forge outdoor kitchens use CoreFrame aluminium cabinetry, CoreFrame aluminium panels and doors, BlackSand powder coating and 20 mm Sandy Bay sintered stone benchtops. The integrated StealthGrip Profile gives the doors a clean, streamlined finish.

What are the cabinets and doors made from?

The cabinet construction uses lightweight aluminium with internal reinforcement and welded joints. CoreFrame aluminium panels and doors form part of the system. When comparing outdoor kitchens, ask about the cabinet structure as well as the surfaces you can see: the doors, joints, hinges and support feet all matter.

What is the BlackSand finish?

BlackSand is Forge’s powder-coated cabinet finish. It gives the cabinetry its dark appearance and pairs with the lighter Sandy Bay benchtop. Other colours are available on request; confirm the finish and availability with Forge before ordering.

What is the StealthGrip Profile?

StealthGrip Profile is the integrated grip detail used to open the doors. It is an insert within the door design, rather than a separate projecting handle. The result is a simple cabinet front that keeps the focus on the kitchen’s overall lines.

What are the benchtops made from?

Forge uses 20 mm Sandy Bay sintered stone. Each cabinet that carries a benchtop has its own top, rather than one continuous slab across the entire kitchen. This is an important detail when planning the arrangement and understanding where the joins will sit.

Sintered stone is heat and stain resistant, but care still matters. Follow the supplier’s instructions, use a trivet for hot cookware and avoid abrasive cleaning products. Confirm the benchtop arrangement for your selected cooking modules before ordering.

What supports the cabinets?

Stainless hinges are used throughout. Adjustable feet help level the cabinets and lift them clear of the ground. Your installation area still needs to be suitable for the kitchen; share photos and measurements with Forge so the base and access can be checked.

How do I care for an outdoor kitchen?

Follow the care instructions supplied with your cabinetry, stone and appliances. Keep surfaces clean and consider a cover to reduce dust build-up and help protect the kitchen over time. Plan a shaded position for an outdoor fridge and follow its ventilation requirements.

What should I check before choosing?

• Which cabinet finish and benchtop are included?
• Where will the joins between modules sit?
• Which appliances are included, and which are optional?
• What care and warranty terms apply to each component?
• Does the proposed layout suit the exposure and services at my home?
