How to choose drawers for your island

A single drawer suits grilling tools, while double drawer and triple drawer stacks separate tools from plates. Choose a wide utility drawer for larger items. Put a trash and recycling pull-out near prep space or a vented propane tank pull-out near the gas connection.

A door and drawer combo makes one opening do two jobs, and two-drawer combos can include a paper towel holder. For a separate bay, compare access doors. A warming drawer keeps cooked food hot until serving rather than storing equipment.

Widths run roughly 14 to 36 inches. Check both overall and cutout dimensions before ordering. The frame overlaps the opening. Summerset offers full-extension ball-bearing slides, bar handles and weather seals; Fire Magic has flush, insulated fronts with a rain gasket and mostly soft-close drawers. Choose brushed stainless steel or black options from Fire Magic and Wildfire.

Frequently asked questions

Do outdoor kitchen drawers rust?

Not in normal outdoor use. Every drawer here is stainless steel, with a gasket or weather seal against rain. Fire Magic adds foam-filled fronts for a solid feel. Wipe the finish occasionally, and keep salt spray and harsh cleaners off it.

What types of outdoor kitchen drawers are there?

Choose single, double or triple stacks for tools and plates, wide utility drawers, trash and recycling pull-outs, or a vented propane tank pull-out. Options include paper towel combos, a griddle drawer, an electric warming drawer, and door-and-drawer combos for one cutout.

Are soft-close drawers worth it?

Soft-close outdoor kitchen drawers shut gently with a nudge when your hands are full at the grill. Fire Magic includes soft close on almost every unit. Summerset uses full-extension ball-bearing slides so you can see the whole drawer.
