Wall protection behind and beside cooking equipment helps protect the building structure from heat and grease and gives a hygienic, cleanable surface. Requirements depend on the appliances and the wall construction.
We fabricate stainless steel wall sheeting and heat shields to fit around services, corners and fixtures.
What We Fabricate
Clearances and fire ratings depend on the building, appliances and local authority. We build to your design and approvals; see our compliance page.
- Stainless steel wall cladding and splashbacks
- Heat-shield panels for fryers, griddles, woks and ovens
- Floor-to-ceiling sheeting
- Corners, pillars and cut-outs for services
- Matching panels for pizza ovens and bakeries
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.
