Whether you are building a new house or remodeling an existing kitchen, metal work is extremely popular for design and function. A metal like stainless steel is great for a kitchen area because it resists corrosion, is easily formed and fabricated, and has hygienic properties. Metal work in the kitchen combines functionality and design to present a beautiful space to cook, bake, and eat.
Ways to implement custom metalwork into the kitchen:
- Ventilation grilles
- HVAC grilles
- Sheet metal backsplash
- Metal stove hoods/vents
- Custom metal pots/pans rack
- Stainless steel countertops
- Metal cabinet inserts
- Custom light fixtures
Custom grilles
Just like in the bathroom, proper ventilation in the kitchen is essential. Because there are multiple areas that require fans or vents, these pieces are noticeable and prevalent in your kitchen space. Instead of settling for plain stock vents, invest in custom metal architectural grilles to add a unique aesthetic appeal.
In one of our recent projects, we added a custom weave grille to the entire border of this Park Avenue kitchen. The stainless steel metal sheets on the walls are also a great way to add a modern, industrial feel to the room.
Metal cabinet inserts
You should also consider using a metal grille for your kitchen cabinets. This cabinet from This Old House uses a grille similar to our perforated Grecian Grille to add a stylistic element to a functional piece.
Custom metal pot racks

Another great way to implement metal work into your kitchen is by installing a custom pot rack. These metal racks feature a brushed satin finish, but there are many different finishes and color options available to achieve your ideal look.
