How RJ Metals Helps Restaurants Stay Up to Code
When the health inspector walks into your kitchen, you don’t want to worry about the welds on your backsplash.
From day one, restaurant owners, GCs, and kitchen designers come to RJ Metals for stainless fabrication that’s:
-
Clean
-
Functional
-
Durable
-
And ready for inspection
Here’s how we help your kitchen stay compliant — and stress-free.
✅ 1. We Use the Right Stainless — Every Time
Our kitchen fabrication is done using 304 #4 stainless steel — the gold standard for food-safe equipment.
It’s:
-
Non-porous
-
Corrosion resistant
-
Brushed for easy cleaning
-
Recognized by every health code in the country
✅ 2. Smooth Welds, Tight Seams, No Gaps
Poor fabrication can lead to:
-
Grease buildup
-
Bacteria traps
-
Water leaks
-
Failed inspections
At RJ Metals, we ensure:
-
Fully welded corners
-
No sharp edges
-
Smooth transitions between surfaces
-
Finishes that are easy to sanitize
✅ 3. Built to Fit. Built to Function.
A stainless panel is only code-compliant if it fits right.
We build all parts to spec — and double-check every dimension before delivery.
That means:
-
Backsplashes that go wall to wall
-
Sinks that sit flush with counters
-
Trim that covers gaps behind fryers, grills, and prep stations
✅ 4. Knowledge of Local & National Codes
We’ve built stainless for:
-
Quick-service chains
-
Independent restaurants
-
Catering commissaries
-
School and hospital kitchens
We understand the small details that inspectors look for — and we fabricate accordingly.

“Code compliance starts with the metal. If it’s not fabricated clean, your crew will fight it — and your inspection might fail. We build for peace of mind.”
