Outdoor Kitchens for Long Island's Harshest Weather

Outdoor Kitchens for Long Island's Harshest Weather

Outdoor kitchens have quickly moved from being a feature reserved for luxury homes to becoming a mainstream convenience. More than ever before, we are looking for a closer connection to nature and the outside world, and in doing so, we are discovering the joys of outdoor living. As homeowners, we want to elevate our outdoor spaces, turning them into more permanent environments that can be enjoyed year-round, extending our living areas and enhancing our quality of life.

With Spring right around the corner, don't spend the summer wishing you started your outdoor living space renovation earlier.

Benefits of an Outdoor kitchen 

  • Increases Home Value - In fact Absolute Outdoor kitchen's study says a home with an outdoor kitchen can potentially see an ROI between 100% to 200%! 
  • Great Entertainment space - With the inventions of patio heaters, outdoor lighting, fans and more it's easier to make the outdoors feel like a room now.
  • Improved Heath & Wellbeing - Studies show being outdoors can improve concentration, memory and mental energy, not to mention lowering stress levels.
  • Keeps Smells Outside - Bacon and Fish are the biggest offenders in this category. Their smells can linger for days after being cooked inside. An outdoor kitchen can help keep your house smelling fresh. 

Weather Proof Outdoor Cabinets

Being in the Northeast, we have four unpredictable seasons.  We have pouring rain, hot muggy summers and cold snowy winters. Is an outdoor kitchen really possible here?  With WeatherStrong cabinetry, the answer is yes.  WeatherStrong Outdoor Cabinetry is designed to stand up to the harshest elements Mother Nature can send your way.  With or without any sort of structural protection.

These outdoor cabinets have doors and drawer fronts crated of 3/4" All-Weatherboard® composite material. { Watch Video }

What is All-Weatherboard®? It is a high-density polyethylene and marine-grade polymer, tough enough to withstand all weather conditions.  

Being not only water proof but weather proof, the applications are endless!  Outdoor kitchens, Cooking & Grilling Areas, Garage storage, Wet Room ensembles, Pool Houses, Outdoor showers, RVs or even on Boats.  

 WeatherStrong Cabinet Box Construction at DirectCabinets.com

  Cabinet Construction: WeatherStrong cabinets are factory built to order with precision dowel alignment and a fast cure solvent‑free structural marine adhesive system that provides excellent flexibility, toughness and bond strength.
Installation to Exterior Walls: WeatherStrong can be installed indoors or out. To fasten cabinets to stucco, brick, or concrete block walls, stainless steel Tapcon® fasteners are recommended (3/16" x 2‑3/4"), sold separately. For base cabinets two fasteners are recommended, and four are recommended for wall cabinet installations.
Salt Water Environments: Oceanfront environments with salt air and sea spray will require regular maintenance and cleaning to prevent rust from forming on the handles, hinges and drawer runners. Clean stainless steel surfaces several times a month to keep the chemical reaction from the salt from gaining a foothold on the hardware. With regular cleaning, your cabinets will look like new for many years. To achieve maximum corrosion and stain resistance, the surface of the stainless steel must be kept clean.
