When it comes to setting up a new commercial kitchen, the installation phase can feel overwhelming. At Mission Restaurant Supply, we’ve helped operators, chefs, and contractors plan and execute kitchen installs so you don’t have to go it alone. Here’s what we hear most often…
1. How long does a commercial kitchen installation take?
Timelines vary depending on the scope. Replacing a single unit might take a day, while a full kitchen build or remodel can take several weeks. The key is early planning and coordination making sure equipment, fabrication, and construction stay aligned from start to finish. With clear communication and experienced project management, every phase stays on track.
2. How do I know my space is ready for installation?
Before the first delivery arrives, your site should be cleared, leveled, and connected to all necessary utilities. Floors, walls, and access points should be finished to avoid delays. Our installation team reviews these details early in the process, confirming that utilities, ventilation, and clearances are in place so installation day goes smoothly.
3. What kind of support should I expect during the process?
A successful installation isn’t just about placing equipment, it’s about coordination. From scheduling deliveries to verifying utility specs and safety requirements, your project team should keep you updated at every step. Mission’s in-house experts manage design, fabrication, and installation together, creating a seamless experience from start to finish.
4. What common mistakes should operators avoid during installation?
- Ordering equipment before confirming utilities, layout, or clearance.
- Ignoring flow between prep, cook, and service zones.
- Not coordinating trades or scheduling with service demands.
These challenges are addressed in our in-house design and project-management approach.
5. What happens after installation is complete?
Our role doesn’t end when the equipment is delivered. At Mission, installation is just one part of a lasting partnership. Once everything’s in place, our team tests, calibrates, and walks through each detail to ensure performance and safety. We also offer continued support so your kitchen keeps running strong long after opening day.
