Commercial stainless steel solutions
Bespoke Stainless Steel Fabrication for Kitchens, Bakeries & Food Production
Norgroup supplies and coordinates made-to-measure stainless steel fabrication for suitable commercial projects, including preparation tables, sinks, benches, shelving, equipment stands, wall cladding and specialist items.
Fabrication is developed to agreed drawings, dimensions, use and site conditions through suitable specialist manufacturing partners.

Use awkward spaces effectively
Standard stainless units do not always fit the equipment, workflow or services
Commercial kitchens and bakeries often contain columns, service routes, drainage points, existing machinery and unusual wall dimensions that standard modular furniture cannot accommodate efficiently.
Norgroup can survey or work from approved drawings to coordinate suitable bespoke fabrication. The item can be developed as part of a complete kitchen project or supplied for an individual replacement or upgrade.
Fabricated items
Specify the dimensions, use and surrounding equipment
The exact grade, thickness, construction and finish are confirmed against the intended application.
Sinks & wash stations
Suitable bowls, drainers, undershelves, upstands and tap provisions coordinated with services.
Wall benches
Made-to-measure work surfaces fitted around walls, columns, equipment and service routes.
Shelving
Wall shelves, overshelves, undershelves and suitable storage for commercial environments.
Equipment stands
Purpose-built stands, plinths, frames and supports for suitable commercial machinery.
Cladding & specialist items
Wall cladding, infill panels, guards, chutes and project-specific fabricated components.
Design information
Confirm the details that affect fit, hygiene and daily operation
Accurate dimensions and service information are essential where fabrication interfaces with walls, drains, equipment or utilities.
Dimensions
Overall size, working height, wall conditions, clearances and access for installation.
Upstands
Rear and side upstands developed around walls, splash zones and neighbouring items.
Storage
Undershelves, cupboards, drawers or open-frame construction selected for the intended use.
Equipment interfaces
Cut-outs, stands, apertures, rails and clearances coordinated with confirmed equipment.
Services
Tap holes, drainage positions, cable routes and utility interfaces shown on approved drawings.
Finish
Suitable commercial finish, edge treatment, weld preparation and visible-surface expectations.
Fabrication process
From site dimensions and use requirements to installation
- 1
Define the item
Confirm the intended use, size, equipment interfaces, storage and site location.
- 2
Survey or review drawings
Verify critical dimensions, walls, floors, services, access and installation constraints.
- 3
Develop the specification
Agree construction, grade, thickness, shelves, upstands, cut-outs and finish.
- 4
Approve drawings
Confirm the fabrication drawing and all critical service or equipment dimensions.
- 5
Manufacture
Produce the item through the appropriate specialist fabrication route.
- 6
Deliver and install
Coordinate access, positioning, fixing and stated service interfaces where included.
Coordinate fabrication with the kitchen
Avoid gaps, clashes and inaccessible services
Bespoke fabrication is most effective when it is developed alongside the confirmed equipment schedule and service drawings.
- Equipment clearances and door openings
- Cleaning and maintenance access
- Drainage falls and outlet positions
- Wall and floor irregularities
- Safe edges and working heights
- Installation and delivery access
Commercial kitchen application: YOH Burger
Stainless steel work areas coordinated with the wider kitchen and equipment layout
Norgroup developed the back-of-house arrangement for YOH Burger as part of the complete restaurant project, coordinating the equipment, preparation flow and required commercial work areas.
Considering fabricated items alongside the equipment schedule helps maintain workable clearances and supports a more efficient installation.
- Back-of-house layout planning
- Equipment interface coordination
- Commercial preparation work areas
- Service and access consideration
- Integrated installation programme

Frequently asked questions
Bespoke Stainless Steel Fabrication FAQs
What stainless steel items can you supply?
Suitable work can include preparation tables, wall benches, sinks, shelving, equipment stands, cladding, infill panels and specialist project items.
Is the stainless steel manufactured in-house?
Norgroup coordinates suitable stainless fabrication through specialist manufacturing partners and integrates it with the wider project where required.
Can you work from my drawing?
Yes, provided the drawing contains adequate dimensions, materials, construction details and equipment or service interfaces. Further clarification or a fabrication drawing may still be required.
Can you survey the site?
Yes, a survey can be arranged where required to confirm critical dimensions, access and surrounding conditions.
What grade of stainless steel is used?
The grade and thickness depend on the application, environment and specification. These details are confirmed in the quotation and approved drawing.
Can sinks and taps be included?
Suitable sinks, drainers and tap provisions can be included. Plumbing connections are only included where specifically stated in the proposal.
Can fabrication be installed around existing equipment?
Yes, where dimensions and access can be confirmed. Existing machinery, services and cleaning access must be considered before manufacture.
What is needed for a quotation?
Provide dimensions, photographs, intended use, equipment interfaces, storage requirements, service positions, target date and any available drawings.
