Summerset Gas Timer Control Panel: a timer mount for block and paver islands
The Summerset Gas Timer Control Panel is a housing for the Summerset gas timer, with a stainless steel faceplate for a block or paver island. The gas timer shuts the gas to the grill off by itself when its one hour dial winds down. It is weather resistant stainless steel, built to live outside, and Summerset backs it with a lifetime warranty.
A block or paver island has no stud wall or metal frame to screw a timer to. This panel gives the timer a stainless steel face on the outside and a protected seat behind it. It suits a homeowner building an outdoor kitchen island from those materials. The timer is sold separately and is an option on this page. Need keyed access instead? See the Summerset Locking Cabinet for the Gas Timer. The Summerset Gas Timer Control Panel ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.
FAQ
What is this control panel for?
It is the housing and faceplate that let the ESTOP gas timer be installed in islands built from SRW block, architectural block, or pavers. The ESTOP-CP-KIT gives the timer a clean, weather-resistant mounting point in materials you cannot simply screw hardware onto.
Does it include the timer?
No – the panel kit is the infrastructure for a masonry-built island, and the ESTOP timer is priced on its own. You can add the timer to the same order through the Optional Accessories selector on this page; it sits in the panel to complete the shut-off station on the gas line.
Why do block and paver islands need a special mount?
Because there is no stud wall or sheet-metal frame to fasten hardware to – just thick masonry units. The control panel bridges that, presenting a stainless face on the island exterior while giving the timer a proper protected seat behind it.
What is it made of?
Weather-resistant stainless steel, matched to outdoor service on an exposed island face. The ESTOP-CP-KIT takes rain, sprinkler spray, and knocks from patio furniture without the timer behind it caring – which is the point of housing the control at all.
Is this for commercial properties?
It is common there – masonry grill stations at apartments, parks, and clubhouses pair timed gas shut-off with paver or block construction, exactly what this panel supports. But a residential paver island in an outdoor kitchen uses the same kit the same way.
What else pairs with the ESTOP system?
Summerset builds a family around the timer – this panel for masonry installs, a surface-mount enclosure for structures you cannot recess into, and a locking cabinet where access control matters. Choose the housing that matches your island’s construction and its audience.
What warranty covers the kit?
The Gold Standard Lifetime Warranty applies to the ESTOP-CP-KIT, the same industry-leading coverage Summerset puts behind its grills. Housing for a gas safety control should be a permanent part of the island, and the warranty backs it for life.
