Why Choose Modular Cabinets for Your DIY Outdoor Kitchen?


For anyone who loves DIY, modular cabinets provide an ideal foundation. RTF Systems offers ready-to-finish modular cabinet frames that come in a range of configurations, giving you the flexibility to tailor your setup to your backyard and your lifestyle. Here’s why modular cabinets are a great choice for a DIY outdoor kitchen:

  1. Easy to Assemble

    Our modular cabinets are designed for easy assembly, making it straightforward to piece together your outdoor kitchen without the need for complicated construction. Each frame is made from galvanized steel and cement board, ensuring a sturdy, long-lasting foundation that’s perfect for outdoor use.
  2. Customizable Finishes

    Because our cabinets come ready to finish, you can choose a style that matches your taste. From rustic stone veneer to sleek tile or stucco, the choice is yours—allowing you to design a kitchen that complements the aesthetic of your home and outdoor space.
  3. Compatible with Any Appliance

    One of the best things about our modular cabinets is their flexibility. You can easily install any appliance you desire, whether it’s a Bull gas grill, a kamado-style smoker, or a convenient ice maker next to the pool. Our cabinets are designed to accommodate nearly any setup, making it simple to build a kitchen that meets your unique needs.

Endless Options: Build the Outdoor Kitchen You’ve Always Wanted

With RTF Systems modular cabinets, the possibilities for your outdoor kitchen are truly endless. Here are just a few ideas to inspire your design:

  • Grills and Smokers: Whether you prefer a traditional gas grill, a charcoal kamado, or a wood pellet smoker, our modular cabinets can accommodate any style of grill. Grill brands like Bull, Big Green Egg, or Kamado Joe fit seamlessly into our cabinets, so you can pick the appliance that matches your grilling style and culinary ambitions.
  • Side Burners and Power Burners: Want to add versatility to your cooking setup? Our cabinets can be customized to include side burners or high-power burners, letting you sear steaks, boil water, or prepare sauces while keeping everything outdoors.
  • Refrigerators and Ice Makers: An outdoor kitchen is even more enjoyable with a cold drink in hand. You can incorporate a refrigerator or ice maker right into your design, making it easy to entertain and keep refreshments within reach. Imagine an ice-cold drink station set up just steps from your pool!
  • Storage Cabinets: RTF Systems modular cabinets can be configured to include ample storage space for all your cooking tools, utensils, and grilling accessories. With built-in storage drawers and cabinets, you’ll have everything you need close at hand, keeping your space organized and efficient.
  • Pizza Ovens: Love pizza nights? With the right configuration, you can even add a pizza oven to your outdoor kitchen. From gas-powered ovens to wood-fired options, our cabinets make it easy to add this unique feature for homemade pizzas with a perfectly crispy crust.
  • Outdoor Sinks and Prep Stations: A functional outdoor kitchen isn’t complete without a dedicated space for food prep. Our modular cabinets can be set up to include sinks and countertops, giving you the ability to wash, prep, and serve without constantly heading indoors.
