🧱 Built-In & Freestanding Braais — Precision Custom Work

Our custom-built braais are made to measure for a perfect fit in your patio, stoep, or indoor braai area. Each unit is engineered for durability, easy maintenance, and excellent airflow. Because every space is different, we adapt your braai’s size, layout, and features to match your vision.

Choose your material:

Mild steel for affordability and strength
304 stainless steel for durability and a sleek finish
316 stainless steel for ultimate corrosion resistance, ideal for coastal areas

From design to installation, our team manages the process directly with you, ensuring flawless results from start to finish.

🌪️ Cowls & Chimney Solutions — Designed for Performance

We build cowls and chimney systems that deliver reliable draft control and lasting protection. Each cowl is made to your exact dimensions to improve performance and prevent rain, debris, or downdrafts.

Available options include:

Round flue cowls
Square bolt-on cowls

These products are custom-manufactured to match your fireplace or braai perfectly, ensuring both function and aesthetic balance.

🔲 Canopies & Smoke Gatherers — Tailored for Brick Braais

If your brick braai needs better smoke control, we can design a custom canopy or smoke gatherer that fits seamlessly. Our team builds these components in stainless or mild steel, making them ideal for both indoor and outdoor use. They capture smoke efficiently while enhancing your braai’s appearance and ventilation.

🔥 Custom Wood Fireplaces — Built for Warmth and Style

We create custom braais and fireplaces that transform any living area into a cozy focal point. From modern open designs to enclosed heating systems, our bespoke fireplaces are crafted to match your space and heating requirements. Each model blends engineering precision with timeless aesthetics.
