Request a QuoteCommercial Kitchen Canopies for BBQ and Charcoal Grill Kitchens
BBQ restaurants, smokehouses and charcoal grill kitchens create a lot of smoke and grease over long cooking times. Solid fuel adds extra requirements for the canopy, flue and surrounding construction.
We fabricate heavy-duty canopies and work with your designer and the appliance supplier on the exhaust path.


Solid Fuel Needs Extra Care
Solid-fuel cooking is a specialist design. We will not guess: we review the appliance, fuel and building with your designer before we fabricate.
- Heavy-duty stainless construction
- Filters suited to smoke and grease
- Spark and ember considerations in the design
- Fire-rated wall protection where needed
- Fan and duct arranged for long cooking periods
How We Build It
KS Steel Engineering has been operating for 13 years from Epping. You send us the layout or equipment list and a few site photos; we confirm measurements, scope the canopy, ducting and fan, and quote. The canopy is fabricated in our Epping workshop, then our team delivers and installs it and connects the ductwork and fan.
Because we make the canopy ourselves, changes to size, filter layout or duct connection points are handled at the fabrication stage rather than on site.


Standards, and Where We Install
Commercial kitchen ventilation in Australia is governed by AS 1668.2, and other requirements cover the fire performance of surrounding construction. What applies depends on the building, the cooking equipment and your local authority. We fabricate to the design and approvals for your project.
Our workshop is at Unit 1/22 Salicki Ave, Epping. We install across Melbourne, including the northern suburbs of Lalor, Thomastown, Mill Park, Bundoora, South Morang, Whittlesea, Reservoir, Preston, Campbellfield, Broadmeadows and Craigieburn, plus Altona, Dandenong, Clyde and Geelong. We have also completed projects in regional Victoria (Ballarat, Bendigo, Shepparton, Mildura, Wodonga, Seymour, Moe and Drouin) and in Canberra.
