Waterproof Cabinetry - Built with waterproof PVC panels, Cabinex cabinetry won't crack, split or deteriorate over time. 

Anodised Aluminium Frame - Every Cabinex cabinet is built around a robust anodised aluminium frame, providing exceptional strength, durability and corrosion resistance for long-lasting outdoor performance. 

Premium Porcelain Benchtops & Waterfall Ends - Every Cabinex outdoor kitchen features premium porcelain benchtops with matching waterfall ends, selected for their timeless appearance, exceptional durability and refined finish. 

Premium Polytec Alfresco Door finishes - Manufactured using Polytec's premium ALFRESCO Compact Laminate range and framed in anodised aluminium, every door is purpose-built for outdoor living. The 5mm Compact Laminate inserts are impervious to water and highly resistant to stains, scratches and everyday wear, ensuring they maintain their premium appearance for years to come. 

Can Cabinex be installed anywhere?

Cabinex outdoor kitchens are designed to be installed wholly or partially under cover to help protect your outdoor kitchen and maximise its long-term performance. 

Before installation, an initial site inspection is carried out to confirm the location is suitable and meets the relevant installation requirements, including ventilation and clearance requirements for your selected BBQ. 

The site inspection also helps confirm the location of services such as power, water, waste and gas (where applicable), ensuring your outdoor kitchen is properly planned before construction and installation begins. 

What warranty is included? 

Every Cabinex outdoor kitchen is backed by a 10-year structural warranty, giving you confidence in the quality and durability of your investment. 

All Cabinex cabinetry and components are covered by the Cabinex warranty. Appliances, including BBQs and refrigeration, are covered by their respective manufacturer's warranties.
