Chiddingfold Village Hall in Surrey recently commissioned Steelplan’s services to transform their old, worn-out kitchen with new powder-coated steel kitchen cabinets and stainless-steel worktops. Take a look at our before and after pictures below.

Chiddingfold Village Hall is in great demand. According to Chiddingfold’s Trustee for Marketing & Hire Valissa Burnett, regular users include a weekly lunch club with 50 people, a nursery, a twice-monthly cinema event and annual welcome lunch for up to 100 people. That’s a lot of people to cook and clean for.

After 27 years, the existing kitchen was no longer fit for purpose. That’s why, Valissa says, the hall needed an upgrade. Rather than going to a provider of MDF/wooden cabinets that wouldn’t stand the test of time, she chose a semi-commercial powder-coated Steelplan kitchen for its “construction, durability and long lifespan”.

“When factoring in the life span of the steel kitchen the increased cost of purchase was more viable,” Valissa said.

The project faced some unique challenges. The dimensions and location of the range cooker and extraction meant that the planned layout had to be changed. But the works have made a night-and-day difference to the kitchen, which is now easy to clean, durable, fire and water-resistant and has a sleek, semi-commercial look.

“It has been a pleasure dealing with Chris from the outset,” said Valissa, who added that her favourite thing about the new kitchen was its durability.

Steelplan are pleased to have delivered another successful kitchen project to another happy client.
