Stainless Steel Counters and Shelving for Restaurant Kitchens

t466-22

A stainless steel kitchen counter for a restaurant is a custom-built work surface and shelving unit, made to the exact dimensions of your kitchen and your daily workflow. It is cleanable, durable and easy to keep hygienic under heavy use. Our factory at 37 Rival Street, Tel Aviv, builds these units from measurements and drawings you approve before production starts.

Why stainless steel suits a commercial kitchen

A working restaurant kitchen puts a lot of wear on its surfaces. Hot pans, knives, liquids and daily scrubbing all take their toll. Stainless steel handles this well because it resists corrosion, does not absorb odors and can be wiped clean quickly between services.

It also gives a neat, professional look that suits most restaurant styles, from a small café to a busy dining room with an open kitchen.

Planning the counter layout around your workflow

Before any metal is cut, think about how food moves through your kitchen. Prep, cooking, plating and washing should follow a logical path, with counters placed where staff need them most. A good layout reduces unnecessary steps during service.

Choosing the right shelving and undershelf options

Shelving above and below the counter keeps tools, containers and ingredients within reach. Undershelves are useful for storage of heavier items, while overshelves suit lighter, frequently used goods. The shelf depth and load requirement should match what you actually store.

We can add edges, upturns or a rear splashback so that the surface is easier to keep clean and liquids do not run onto the wall.

Finish, surface and build quality

Stainless steel comes in several grades and surface finishes. A brushed finish hides fingerprints and small scratches well, which is practical for a busy kitchen. The thickness of the sheet and the strength of the frame determine how the unit performs under heavy loads and repeated cleaning.

Every joint is welded and finished so that there are no gaps where dirt can collect.

From measurement to installation

Our process begins with an inquiry, where you can send photos of the space. We then visit the site to measure on location, and prepare a drawing and a written specification for your approval. Only after you approve the drawing do we move to production in our factory.

Once the units are built and finished, we deliver and install them in your kitchen, checking levels and fixings on site.

Planning with your kitchen designer or contractor

If your restaurant is being fitted out by an architect, interior designer or contractor, it helps to share the counter drawings early. This avoids clashes with ventilation, plumbing and electrical work. We are happy to coordinate dimensions and fixing points with the other trades.

For railings, handrails or other safety-related elements in the same project, the Israeli railing standard SI 1142 applies, and exact values are confirmed with the engineer.

Frequently asked questions

Can the counters be made to fit an unusual kitchen space?

Yes, every unit is made to measure, so corners, narrow gaps and irregular walls can be accommodated. We measure on site before any drawing is prepared.

Do I need to approve a drawing before production starts?

Yes. You receive a drawing and written specification, and production begins only after you approve them. This avoids surprises at installation.

Can shelving be added above and below the counter?

Yes, overshelves and undershelves can be included in the same build. We plan their depth and load capacity around what you store.

Who installs the units once they are finished?

Our team delivers and installs the counters and shelving in your kitchen, checking levels and fixings on site.

Common mistakes to avoid

Ordering counters before the kitchen layout and equipment positions are confirmed often leads to costly changes. Measuring only once, without checking clearances and sink or outlet positions, is another common error.

Our recommendation

Mark out the planned counter run on the floor with tape before ordering, and walk through a full prep and service sequence to check reach and flow. Share the marked layout and photos with us so we can measure accurately on site.

Summary

Custom stainless steel counters and shelving give a restaurant kitchen a durable, hygienic and well-organized work area. Careful planning of layout, shelving and finish leads to the best results.
