Please allow a delivery time of 2 to 3 weeks for your order without a Dekton countertop solution. Depending on the size of your order, it may also take a bit longer. Although many modules are in stock, delays may occur due to high demand. However, we will inform you in good time when your kitchen is expected to be delivered.
A Dekton countertop is customized precisely to your BBQ Kitchen and is therefore only measured once the kitchen is fully assembled and ready.
Our freight forwarder currently delivers to many countries in Europe. Just ask us, and we will check whether delivery to your desired country is possible.
The complete Weber BBQ Kitchen range is available throughout Europe. Using the dealer locator, you can quickly find a store near you, including all contact details.
With the Weber BBQ Kitchen configurator, you can put together your outdoor kitchen according to your wishes either online on Weber.com or directly in your Weber Store or Weber Original Store. In addition to the various modules, different worktops are also available to choose from. Your configured kitchen is then custom-made to measure.
Outdoor kitchens are on trend. During the summer months, they move the joy of cooking completely outdoors. This way, as the host you stay right in the middle of the action, never miss any exciting conversations, and the food is always served hot. The advantages of an outdoor kitchen are obvious:
Short distances
If you have the kitchen directly on the patio or your balcony, you save yourself the long trips from the kitchen to outside while the food might already be getting cold and the guests are sitting outside on their own. In your outdoor kitchen, you have everything you need quickly at hand.
Perfect host
You remain present as the host and don’t constantly disappear into the kitchen. This way you spend even more valuable time with friends and family.
Breaking stereotypes
The man obligatorily stands at the grill, the woman prepares everything in the kitchen. Those days are over! From now on, the focus is on the joy of cooking together and being outdoors.
No odor nuisance in the house
Especially with fatty or smoked foods as well as fish dishes, the smell often lingers in the house for hours. Preparing them outdoors simply avoids this.
Enjoy the summer
30 degrees outside and you’re supposed to spend the afternoon indoors in a stuffy kitchen preparing for the barbecue party? Not anymore! With an outdoor kitchen, you can now enjoy summer, sun, and warm temperatures all day long and take care of all kitchen tasks outside.
Functionality
The modular add-on system from BBQ Kitchen makes it possible to configure your outdoor kitchen completely individually according to your wishes and options, thereby expanding your gas grill with a perfectly well-thought-out kitchen for outdoor use. This allows you to enjoy spring and summer even more and spend unique moments of indulgence together with family and friends. With the appropriate add-on kits, BBQ Kitchen is suitable for the most in-demand gas grills from world market leader Weber©
In summary, an outdoor kitchen offers a range of benefits that can improve your quality of life and your overall outdoor lifestyle. From convenience and increased living space to adding value to the home and healthy cooking, an outdoor kitchen is a good investment that will bring you lots of joy :-)
The modules of the BBQ Kitchen are compatible with most Weber® gas grills, setting them apart from other manufacturers. Thanks to the modular add-on system, you can customize your outdoor kitchen to suit your needs.
The design of the modular kitchen elements is simple and modern. The modules are specially designed for outdoor use and are therefore particularly robust. You have the freedom to choose the matching DEKTON worktop for the modules from various looks. This way, you can integrate your Weber grill perfectly and seamlessly into your outdoor kitchen. Enjoy the possibilities and design your dream outdoor kitchen entirely according to your personal style.
Delivery, assembly & installation
This section answers questions about the delivery and assembly of your BBQ Kitchen. You will also learn which requirements the installation location should meet and how to correctly align the kitchen.
The Weber BBQ Kitchen is delivered in space-saving packaging and is not pre-assembled. Assembly takes place on site. We recommend hiring a professional installer. If you would like to assemble it yourself, we recommend taking a look at the digital assembly instructions before purchasing so you can better assess whether you would like to use an assembly service.
For assembling the Weber BBQ Kitchen, detailed written instructions as well as clear video instructions are available on our service and help pages.
Before you start assembling your BBQ Kitchen yourself, you should ask yourself one crucial question: Are you really sure you want to tackle this project on your own? If you already have some DIY experience, it is certainly possible to build your outdoor kitchen independently. However, you should be aware that this project requires sufficient time and possibly the help of friends.
To support you during assembly, we provide setup videos or installation instructions on YouTube that can serve as a helpful guide. Nevertheless, we would like to emphasize that we always recommend having your dream kitchen assembled by our specially trained installation team. Only in this way can we ensure professional assembly and maintain the warranty for our products.
Our many years of experience and our professional service are a major advantage for you. Our installation team knows our products down to the last detail and understands what matters during assembly. They ensure that your BBQ Kitchen is perfectly installed and that all components work together optimally. In addition, they are always available if you have questions or encounter any challenges during assembly.
Assembling an outdoor kitchen is a complex undertaking that requires a certain level of expertise. If you want to be sure that everything runs smoothly and your dream kitchen is perfectly designed, we recommend our professional installation service. This way, you can be confident that your BBQ Kitchen not only looks its best, but also works flawlessly and will bring you enjoyment for a long time.
Due to the use of high-quality and durable materials, our outdoor kitchen—especially with a Dekton countertop—is somewhat heavier than an indoor kitchen. We are happy to check the weight of your desired BBQ kitchen during the planning process.
An outdoor kitchen can be designed in many ways and does not necessarily have to be placed on a patio or in the garden. A large balcony or a rooftop terrace also offers a fantastic opportunity to integrate an outdoor kitchen into your exterior space. An inspiring example is provided by our satisfied customer in Vienna’s 3rd district, who has created an impressive cooking paradise on his spacious balcony on the 19th floor.
The customer has proven that a stylish and functional outdoor kitchen can be realized even in a limited space. With creativity and well-thought-out planning, the available space was used optimally to enable an extraordinary outdoor cooking experience.
Our experienced team is here to help you bring your individual ideas and wishes to life. Whether you are looking for a compact, space-saving solution for a small balcony or want to enjoy the luxury of a fully equipped kitchen on your rooftop terrace - together we will develop a tailor-made concept that suits your needs and your lifestyle.
Let’s make your wishes a reality together and transform your balcony into a unique cooking paradise!
The Weber BBQ Kitchen features adjustable leveling feet, available in heights of 80 mm, 100 mm, and 120 mm, allowing compensation on uneven surfaces.
Location, Weather & Everyday Use
This is about using your BBQ Kitchen outdoors. The FAQs cover topics such as weather influences, overwintering, use in winter, and special site conditions.
So that you can use your BBQ Kitchen without restrictions even in bad weather or in winter, we recommend a roof covering. Such a roof covering not only provides protection from rain and other weather influences, but also significantly extends the service life of your outdoor kitchen. With the roof covering, the outdoor kitchen stays dry and protected from moisture, which minimizes the risk of mold formation and corrosion. In addition, a roof covering allows you to enjoy the pleasure of cooking outdoors all year round without having to worry about the weather conditions. A roof covering is therefore a worthwhile investment that guarantees you long-lasting enjoyment of your outdoor kitchen.
At our company, we place the highest value on the quality and durability of our products. For this reason, we use only high-quality, coated materials for our modules and rely on stainless steel and Dekoton worktops. Both materials are characterized by their exceptional weather resistance, allowing them to withstand the demands of various environments and weather conditions with ease.
The choice of these materials ensures that our kitchen modules and worktops not only withstand daily use well, but can also endure the effects of nature over the long term. Thanks to the coating and the use of stainless steel, our products are resistant to rust, corrosion, and discoloration, which can often occur due to moisture, rain, sunlight, and other environmental influences.
Nevertheless, it is important to us to offer our customers a way to further extend the service life of their kitchen and optimize protection against extreme weather conditions. Therefore, we recommend using a protective cover, especially if the kitchen is outdoors without a roof overhead. This protective cover provides additional protection against direct exposure to rain, snow, UV rays, and other environmental influences.
Our robust protective covers protect the grill and BBQ Kitchen in any weather and are specially tailored to the dimensions of the kitchen modules and worktops to ensure an optimal fit. Depending on the number of modules, they can be connected to each other with hook-and-loop fasteners.
To allow water to drain, the side burner is equipped with several small drainage openings. Moisture can enter the side burner module through these openings. To prevent this, we recommend using a suitable cover.
To protect against corrosion, we recommend treating the Weber BBQ Kitchen regularly with a protective spray such as Multi Spray 1000 from Innotec. The spray is suitable for stainless steel surfaces, powder-coated components, and hinges. Apply it thinly and then spread it with a microfiber cloth.
In winter, the refrigerator should not be used and it is advisable to disconnect it from the power supply - this also saves electricity :-). In addition to switching off the refrigerator, it is important to leave the refrigerator door slightly open.
This allows sufficient ventilation of the interior and prevents moisture from accumulating. If the door is tightly closed, condensation can form. This encourages the formation of mold, which not only smells unpleasant but can also be harmful to health.
Our outdoor kitchens are exposed year-round to a wide range of weather and environmental influences, including snow and frost during winter.
Depending on the type and construction of an outdoor kitchen as well as the materials used, it may be more or less suitable for a sheltered or unsheltered outdoor area. In both cases, however, a weatherproof cover for the entire kitchen, including all appliances, is essential. Ideally, it should be used not only during the colder winter months, but throughout the entire year.
Using a weatherproof cover offers several advantages. For one, it preserves the visual appearance of the outdoor kitchen and helps ensure it still looks like new even after years. For another, it ensures that environmental influences such as dust, dirt, or water—as well as extreme weather conditions like hail, snow, and frost—leave no traces and do not damage the components of your outdoor kitchen.
A high-quality cover protects the sensitive parts of your outdoor kitchen from moisture that could cause corrosion and prevents dirt and dust from getting in, which could negatively affect the operation of the appliances. In addition, it provides extra protection against possible damage from external influences, such as falling branches or hailstorms.
We strongly recommend equipping the outdoor kitchen with a suitable, weatherproof cover to ensure its durability and functionality. This way, you can be sure that your kitchen will remain in top condition even after many years of intensive use, regardless of the changing weather conditions throughout the year.
We offer custom-made protective covers for all models of the BBQ Kitchen!
Care, Cleaning & Protection
In this section you will find information on the proper care of your BBQ Kitchen. Learn how to clean materials, protect your kitchen and maintain its longevity.
To clean the surfaces, a disinfectant cleaner such as Seal & Bond Remover from Innotec can be used. Painted surfaces, however, should be cleaned exclusively with clean water.
For every BBQ Kitchen configuration, we offer a cover hood without corners. Please contact your local Weber Store or our customer service – they will be happy to help you choose the right cover hoods for the grill and modules.
