Built for Sydney's Climate
Outdoor kitchens from FDSS Landscaping are specified for Sydney's UV, heat and seasonal downpours. Components are selected for coastal air, with powder coated aluminium cabinetry, marine grade hardware and porcelain or sintered stone benchtops that resist swelling, rust and fading. We detail ventilation, gas and electrical coordination, drainage and falls, so appliances run safely, and finishes stay stable through summer storms and cool changes. Smart sealing, stainless fixings and UV stable adhesives reduce upkeep, helping your alfresco look sharp year after year. From shaded CBD courtyards to open North St Marys backyards, each build is tailored to site exposure, use and budget for reliable performance and easy cleaning.
- UV stable finishes that resist fade and chalking.
- Marine grade stainless fixings and hinges.
- Porcelain or sintered tops with low water absorption.
- Powder coated aluminium frames designed to minimise warping.
- Integrated drainage and fall to move stormwater.
- Ventilated BBQ cabinets to improve airflow and appliance life.
Design Options and Layouts
Choose a straight run for narrow terraces, an L shape for courtyards, or an island for larger decks and pool areas. Mix grills, side burners, sinks, refrigeration, bins and bar seating, with storage sized to your entertaining. We set clearances, ventilation and services for pergolas, balconies and poolside zones across Inner Sydney and Outer Western Sydney, balancing prep space, heat and traffic flow. Surfaces and layouts are tuned to the harbour climate for simple cleaning and dependable use.
Straight Run
Slimline bench suits terraces and balconies in Inner Sydney. Keeps the cook zone linear, maximises circulation, and integrates compact fridge and bins with wind-smart hood options.
L Shape
Two-wall layout suits courtyards and side yards. Separates hot and wet zones, adds prep space, and nests under pergolas with sheltered seating and an efficient workflow.
Island with Backbar
Entertainer hub for family decks and North St Marys backyards. Central grill with perimeter seating, a prep sink, and generous underbench storage for drinks, tools and serveware.
Materials That Last Outdoors
Choose materials that handle Sydney UV, heat, rain and coastal air. Porcelain or sintered stone benchtops deliver high heat and stain resistance with minimal upkeep. Powder coated aluminium cabinetry stays stable in humidity and downpours, avoiding swell or rot. Marine grade 316 stainless hardware and appliances resist corrosion across Inner Sydney and Outer Western Sydney. For doors and cladding, composite or aluminium slats outperform softwoods in exposed sites, while selected hardwoods work when ventilated and maintained. We plan drainage, drip edges and ventilation so water, grease and steam move away from surfaces, helping your outdoor kitchen look sharp season after season in CBD terraces and North St Marys backyards.
