Built for your space, workflow and service demands
Standard equipment is not always the right fit. An unusual floor plan, a high-volume menu or a specific display concept can call for a tailored solution. ProChef can coordinate custom stainless steel fabrication and refrigeration for cafés, restaurants, pubs, clubs, hotels, bakeries, supermarkets, seafood retailers, food-production sites and other commercial venues.
We begin with what matters on site: available dimensions, equipment clearances, staff movement, storage, cleaning access, product presentation and service volume. The result is a considered specification that makes better use of space and supports efficient day-to-day operation.
Commercial stainless steel fabrication
Durable, hygienic and easy to maintain, stainless steel is the practical foundation of a hard-working commercial kitchen. ProChef can help scope and supply custom-fabricated items to suit new fitouts, renovations and replacement projects.
Typical projects include:
- Commercial exhaust hood canopies and ventilation-related stainless components
- Custom preparation benches, island benches and equipment stands
- Wall benches, sink benches and wash-up stations
- Wall shelves, overshelves and freestanding shelving
- Splashbacks, wall cladding and infill panels
- Cabinets, cupboards, trolleys and tailored storage
- Bar, café, bakery and food-service counters
- Bespoke stainless components made to supplied dimensions or drawings
Need a standard item instead? Compare our stainless steel benches, commercial shelving, stainless steel sinks and the wider stainless steel and trolleys range. You can also browse Simply Stainless for modular stainless options.
Exhaust canopies designed around the kitchen
The canopy must work with the cooking line, room layout and the project’s mechanical design. ProChef can coordinate a custom canopy specification around the equipment beneath it, the available ceiling space, filtration access and cleaning requirements.
For a quote, provide your kitchen plan, cooking-equipment schedule and any available mechanical drawings.
Final ventilation design, installation and certification must be completed or approved by appropriately qualified contractors and must meet the requirements that apply to the site.
Custom-made commercial refrigeration
When presentation, capacity or dimensions go beyond an off-the-shelf cabinet, a tailored refrigeration solution can turn unused space into a productive display or service zone. ProChef can help develop custom refrigeration for front-of-house merchandising and specialist food retail.
Solutions may include:
- Custom open display fridges for drinks, grab-and-go meals, dairy, produce and packaged food
- Refrigerated seafood display cabinets with glass presentation areas and practical service access
- Straight, curved or multi-deck refrigerated displays
- Deli, bakery, café and supermarket display counters
- Refrigerated counters and underbench storage built around a service layout
- Integrated stainless surrounds, plinths and counter interfaces
If a standard cabinet meets the brief, explore open display fridges, cold food displays and the full commercial refrigeration range. Relevant stocked brands include Thermaster, Tecnodom, Bromic Refrigeration and Bonvue.
One project, considered from every angle
-
Share the brief
Send your dimensions, floor plan, reference photos, equipment schedule and what you need the item to do. A rough sketch is useful; formal drawings can follow where required.
-
Scope and specify
We review fit, access, workflow, services, materials and key project constraints. Where specialist mechanical, electrical, hydraulic or certification input is required, that responsibility is identified before manufacture.
-
Review and approve
Confirm the quotation, dimensions, finishes, inclusions and drawings. Manufacturing should begin only after the final specification is approved.
-
Manufacture and coordinate delivery
Your custom item is produced to the approved scope, quality checked and prepared for delivery or installation coordination as agreed in the quotation.
What to include with your quote request
The more detail you provide, the more accurately the team can scope the project:
- Site suburb and required completion date
- Overall width, depth and height
- Floor plans, elevations or a clear sketch
- Photos of the space and access path
- Required stainless grade or finish, if specified
- Cooking equipment list for an exhaust canopy
- Products, temperature range and display capacity for refrigeration
- Plumbing, electrical, drainage or ventilation information
- Delivery, positioning and installation requirements

Frequently asked questions
Projects can include exhaust canopies, benches, sink benches, shelving, splashbacks, cabinets, counters, trolleys and other commercial kitchen components. Feasibility depends on the dimensions, material, services and project location.
Yes. A sketch, site dimensions, photos or architectural plans can start the conversation. Depending on the project, further drawings or a site measure may be required before manufacture.
ProChef can scope custom refrigerated displays for grab-and-go food, drinks, produce and other suitable products. Include the products to be displayed, target temperature range, dimensions, access and merchandising requirements with your enquiry.
Custom seafood cabinets can be considered around product presentation, chilled holding, drainage, glass profile, operator access and cleaning. The final design will depend on food-safety requirements and the operating brief.
Installation and certification requirements vary by project and location. Tell ProChef what services are required so the quotation can define included work and any appropriately licensed contractors or consultants needed.
Lead time depends on design complexity, approvals, materials, workshop capacity, delivery and installation requirements. The team can provide an estimated programme after reviewing the complete brief.
Yes. ProChef can help align custom pieces with standard cooking, refrigeration, food-display and stainless equipment for a coordinated commercial kitchen or retail fitout.
