Commercial Kitchen Canopies for Chinese Restaurants

A Chinese kitchen cooks with intense flame. Wok ranges, stockpot burners, steamers and fryers produce a lot of heat, grease and steam, and the line is often busiest at peak dinner service.

We fabricate canopies built for the wok line and supply the duct and fan to match.

Designed for the Wok Line

Wok burners use a lot of gas and a lot of exhaust, so the fan, duct and make-up air all need to suit. We scope them with the canopy.

  • Canopies sized for multi-burner wok ranges and chimney burners
  • Provision for stockpot and steamer extraction
  • Heavy-duty filters and grease gutters
  • Fire-rated stainless wall protection behind high-heat burners
  • Make-up air considered, since wok lines draw a lot of air

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. Stock photos on this page are illustrative and are not KS Steel projects.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. We size it to the number of burners and the overhang needed to capture the plume.
