🍴 Commercial Kitchen Installation – Portchester Methodist Church Hall, Hampshire ⛪

🏡 Project Overview: Durable Semi-Commercial Kitchen for Community Use

In partnership with Steelplan Kitchens, we installed a robust powder-coated steel kitchen at Portchester Methodist Church Hall, and as a result, the community now enjoys a highly durable space. Consequently, the kitchen can handle heavy and varied use, while at the same time supporting multiple local groups efficiently. Moreover, durability and hygiene were our top priorities because the hall serves a wide range of activities. Therefore, we carefully designed the space to improve workflow, safety, and ease of use simultaneously. In addition, the upgraded kitchen now allows volunteers and staff to work together safely and effectively.

⏳ Project Timeline & Installation Process

The project lasted three weeks, and during this period, our team worked efficiently on site to stay on schedule. First, we stripped out the old kitchen completely, which prepared the space for the new installation, and as a result, no obstacles delayed the process. Then, we created plywood templates to ensure precise fitting of the stainless steel worktops, and consequently, the installation progressed smoothly. Furthermore, careful coordination allowed the team to complete tasks sequentially, which prevented bottlenecks and ensured efficiency. Additionally, we scheduled work around hall activities, so disruption was minimal and community use continued. Therefore, by planning carefully, the kitchen was ready on time and to specification.

🧼 Hygienic & Safe Kitchen Environment

We installed Bioclad UPVC wall cladding, which provides smooth, easy-to-clean surfaces, and as a result, maintaining hygiene is now much simpler. Moreover, we laid Altro Stronghold 30 slip-resistant vinyl flooring to improve safety while simultaneously ensuring durability in a high-traffic environment. In addition, we completed the room with a wipe-clean suspended ceiling featuring removable tiles and energy-efficient LED lighting, which created a bright and comfortable workspace. Consequently, staff and volunteers can work safely and efficiently, while at the same time maintaining compliance with hygiene standards. Furthermore, the overall design promotes long-term safety, practicality, and operational reliability.

🛠️ Steelplan Kitchens: Durable Steel & Metal Solutions

We fitted a pre-fabricated kitchen from Steelplan Kitchens, specialists in steel and metal kitchen solutions, and therefore, the kitchen offers exceptional strength and longevity. Moreover, their steel carcass designs are specifically made for semi-commercial spaces such as churches, hospitals, schools, and community centres, which ensures resilience under heavy use. Consequently, the kitchen can accommodate diverse users while remaining hygienic and low-maintenance. In addition, the durable materials reduce long-term repair costs, and at the same time, they improve safety and workflow. Therefore, choosing steel kitchens guarantees both reliability and efficiency for years to come.

🤔 Why Choose Steel & Metal Kitchens?

Firstly, steel kitchens have a long life expectancy and low maintenance costs, and moreover, they provide consistent hygiene standards. Additionally, the wipe-clean surfaces meet commercial requirements, while simultaneously resisting wear and damage from heavy daily use. Furthermore, these kitchens are ideal for high-demand environments, and as a result, they combine durability, practicality, and safety in one solution.
