Modular Systems Stainless Steel Sink Cabinets

The Modular Systems stainless steel sink cabinet is a commercial-grade wash station for open kitchens, prep areas, and bar back-of-house — combining a punched 304-grade sink bowl, under-bench storage, and a 150 mm splashback into one pre-assembled unit. Built in eight size and sink-position configurations from 1200 mm to 2100 mm wide, it drops into fit-outs where a plumber would otherwise have to build the cabinet around the sink on site.

Why operators choose this cabinet

• All-welded 304-grade stainless — 1.2 mm top, 0.9 mm doors and drawers, reinforced lining under the worktop
• Punched bowl — 400 × 400 × 300 mm deep, no seams to trap food residue, 90 mm drain hole for standard plumbing
• Eight configurations — 1200 / 1500 / 1800 / 2100 mm widths, 600 or 700 mm deep, left or right sink position
• Integrated splashback — 150 mm rear rise protects the wall behind from splash during heavy wash-up
• Doors and drawers — closed storage for chemicals and cloths, drawers for utensils — one unit replaces a sink + separate cabinet
• Arrives fully assembled — no flat-pack assembly on install day; plumber connects in and you're ready

Specifications

Venue suitability

Suited to commercial kitchens in cafés, restaurants, pubs, catering kitchens, and institutional sites (schools, childcare, aged care) where an open-plan wash station is needed. The 1200 and 1500 mm widths fit compact cafés; 1800 and 2100 mm suit prep-heavy venues and multi-station kitchens. Choose the 700 mm depth if the cabinet sits against a wall with plumbing run behind; 600 mm for island or tight-corner fits.

Installation & delivery

Freight-delivered fully assembled — a plumber connects water supply, drain, and (if required) hot water. No electrical work needed. Allow door/drawer clearance in front of the cabinet when measuring — standard 600 mm of working space is typical.

Frequently asked questions

Q: What size sink cabinet do I need for my kitchen? A: The eight configurations cover most commercial layouts. For a compact café or bar back-of-house, 1200 or 1500 mm is typical. For prep-heavy restaurants or catering sites, 1800 or 2100 mm gives you more worktop either side of the bowl. Depth: choose 700 mm if the cabinet sits against a wall with plumbing run behind; 600 mm for island placement or tight corners.

Q: What grade of stainless steel is this cabinet built from? A: The worktop is 1.2 mm SUS304 (austenitic, chromium-nickel) — the commercial standard for food-contact stainless. Doors and drawers are 0.9 mm stainless. 304 grade resists corrosion from cleaning chemicals and wash-up water, and it's the same grade used in commercial sink benches across hospitality.

Q: Is the bowl welded or punched? A: Punched — the bowl is formed from a single sheet of stainless with no seams or welds inside the bowl itself. That means nowhere for food residue to lodge, easier cleaning, and no failure points where welded seams might eventually leak. External cabinet joins are all-welded.

Q: Does the cabinet arrive assembled or flat-packed? A: Fully assembled. You don't need to build it on install day — a plumber connects water supply and drain, and the unit is ready to use. Freight-delivered on a pallet to most Australian metro and regional addresses.

Q: Can I choose which side the sink sits on? A: Yes — select Left sink or Right sink at order. The "L" suffix (e.g. SC-6-1500L-H) indicates left-sink; swap to right if your plumbing or workflow requires. Choose based on your dominant hand and how food moves through your wash-up station.

Q: What does the 2-year parts warranty cover? A: The 24-month warranty covers replacement parts for manufacturing defects in the cabinet structure, welds, and hinges. Labour is not included — if a repair is needed, a local tradesperson installs the replacement part. For fast-moving parts we stock replacements locally; contact us on 1300 000 927 to lodge a warranty claim.
