Can you have real stainless kickboards??

This is done all the time also!
Much stronger, last longer, and to me looks better!

My brother did this in his kitchen.

Hmm?

What would be the cost of doing this 'vs' using the laminex / formica equivalent?

The idea is interesting though

Hey Matt, nice have you drop in!!!

My brother is a Steel Fabricator…..there’s not much he can’t do with a sheet of metal or aluminium!!!
So for him this was very cost effective! Even the doors have metal on them!

For an old house he did a good job at the reno of his kitchen, of course he didn’t have to pay the colour consultant either!!!!

Worst case scenario, maybe $50!!!! So actually a heck of a lot cheaper than the alternative "look" and cost.

Someone's hookin' me up!!!!

Hmm now what else can i do with stainless in the house????

Garage benchtops, maybe i might get adventurous and design a funky desk for my study.... the mind is ticking now....

Thanks got it... yep we're getting them...i've decided!!!

Which would be better, 304 or 316 grade??? what have you used before??? Is there a standard grade used for this???

No she doesn't.... Does she???

We had brushed stainless fitted to the kickboards of our kitchen, Phoe. When we were organising the kitchen with our cabinet-maker, we had them fit the standard MDF ones, and we had the SS made to fit over. I have relies that have a SS fabrication business. They also made our SS splashback.

Not sure of the alloy used, but its generally known as kitchen grade brushed stainless steel. Actually I have it adorning my truck too!



I can send you a pic by email if you like.

I must admit, there is a small dent or two, as a result of our boys r/c cars flying around the home! This might be considered a downside of true SS as opposed to the pretend stuff. It can be dented by heavy impact. But I prefer the consistent look of the SS. Just don't wear your stilettos in the kitchen!

Hmmmm
