A restaurant kitchen depends on its canopy. If the hood is the wrong size or the airflow is poorly balanced, the cooks suffer and so does the dining room.
We fabricate canopies to suit the cooking line in your menu and layout, and supply the ductwork and fan so the whole system is designed together.


Built for Busy Service
New restaurant or refit, we work from your equipment list and drawings so the canopy is ready before the cooking equipment goes in.
- Canopies sized to the actual equipment: grills, fryers, ranges, ovens
- Grease filters that are easy to remove and clean
- Ductwork and rooftop fans supplied and installed
- Fire-rated stainless wall protection where the layout needs it
- Matching stainless benches, shelving and cladding
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.
