Product Summary
The Summerset DP-36AC is a premium built-in outdoor kitchen storage cabinet that combines two storage drawers, an enclosed dry pantry, and an access door in a single 36-inch-wide unit. Its #304 stainless steel construction, heavy-duty full-extension tracks, smooth ball-bearing slides, flush-mount format, and hingeless design make it well suited for custom BBQ islands and outdoor cooking spaces that require organized, accessible storage.
Product Overview
A well-designed outdoor kitchen requires more than a grill. It also needs practical storage for cookware, serving pieces, utensils, grilling tools, towels, and other cooking essentials. The Summerset DP-36AC is designed to bring these storage functions together in one built-in component.
The unit provides two drawers for frequently used items and a fully enclosed dry storage pantry for larger supplies. The integrated access door provides additional accessibility within the outdoor kitchen island, while the horizontal orientation and flush-mount design help the cabinet sit cleanly within the surrounding structure.
Its #304 stainless steel finish coordinates with other premium outdoor kitchen appliances and components. Stainless steel handles, full-extension tracks, and smooth ball-bearing drawer slides support everyday usability while maintaining a professional built-in look.

Installation Overview
The Summerset DP-36AC is intended for integration into a built-in outdoor kitchen island. Proper planning is important because the surrounding structure must support the cabinet, allow smooth operation of the drawers and access door, and protect the unit from improper water entry.
Confirm the final appliance location within the outdoor kitchen layout.
Verify the exact opening requirements before cutting or framing the island.
Ensure the supporting structure is level, square, and capable of carrying the installed cabinet.
Provide sufficient clearance for the drawers and access door to open without contacting adjacent appliances or handles.
Position the unit for a flush fit with the finished face of the island.
Protect the cabinet interior from standing water and uncontrolled water intrusion.
Test all drawers and the access door after installation to verify smooth movement and alignment.
Professional installation is recommended when the unit is being incorporated into masonry, stone, concrete, metal framing, or a custom combustible outdoor kitchen structure.

Expert Recommendation
The Summerset DP-36AC is a strong choice for homeowners, contractors, and outdoor kitchen designers who want to combine several storage functions within one coordinated built-in component. Its two drawers are useful for frequently accessed tools and utensils, while the enclosed pantry accommodates larger supplies that would otherwise take up valuable preparation space.
This model is particularly well suited to premium BBQ islands where a flush-mounted stainless steel appearance is important. Buyers should confirm the opening requirements and planned storage use before installation, especially when the cabinet will be placed near plumbing, gas components, electrical equipment, or appliances that require dedicated clearance.

What can I store in the pantry and drawers?
Suitable items may include grilling tools, utensils, trays, towels, outdoor cookware, serving accessories, and appropriate nonperishable kitchen supplies.

Is the DP-36AC a freestanding cabinet?
No. It is designed as a flush-mounted component for a built-in outdoor kitchen or BBQ island.

It may be incorporated into a properly designed masonry or custom outdoor kitchen island, provided the opening is correctly sized, level, supported, and planned for safe operation.

Great customer service for hard to get refractory brick back
I was able to get a Novus 33 in brick refractory back for my NG Novus fireplace insert. Novus is a high demand item and Flame authority was only supplier without a huge delay from manufacturer. I recommend them for all fireplace needs.
Product is great, free shipping was good, and unpacking and installing it was easy. Customer support was great too, both with the sales and shipping carrier. After much research…the Modern Flames Redstone is the one.
The mantel required a little bit of sanding and prep before painting, but was good quality. Flame Authority did an excellent job shipping and it arrived by freight in perfect condition.
The mantel assembled well. I ended up using some construction adhesive to glue the legs on to make it a little more sturdy. I cut pocket holes in the top to attach it to the wall.
I shopped for a grill for two people. I want it to last for ten years or more. I want it to get really hot for grilling steaks after they have been cooled sous vide. I want it to be useful also for lower temp cooking. This Blaze grill is perfect for me and my wife. Our purchase through Flame Authority was completed with no problems. I am totally satisfied with this grill and highly recommend it for anyone with similar needs.
I wanted to make sure of the size and features of this oven. I called Flame Authority and Mary answered the call. She gave me all the details and I was really amazed coz she really knows what she is selling. Expert with sales and communication. Thumbs Up!
I bought the stove couple weeks ago and ended up having a chance running it a few days I am very pleased with the outcome of the amount of heat it gets out also with the amount of hours it burns at least eight hours. I would recommend this for anyone who is looking for hours of heat output. At first when I bought it I didn’t quite know if mine hopes will be for filled but now they are happy with it. I would recommend this to anyone as a trusted tester of it I am very pleased of the outcome it rains.!
Nice company to work with and an even better fireplace for our home
Nice , polite and helpful, when you would call with questions.Fireplace looks nice and throws a decent amount of heat , just a bit of a delay in delivery. Ended up getting it End of January, right before guests arrived. But still only took 3 weeks to get. Thank you Flame Authority !!!
I didn't expect to have this fireplace earlier than the lead time they promised. It looks stunning in my living room and now we are prepared for the upcoming winter season! I am happy with all the updates! Customer service representatives keep on updating me with the process of my order until delivery they are checking it for you! 10 stars for Flame Authority!
Simply beautifully designed. Very efficient. Looks gorgeous in our mid century modern home in a corner space. Will save us $$$ on electric heat bills and is easy to clean with fireplace glass cleaner.
I believe it was David Novak that helped me. Someone ALWAYS answered the phone and located this burner when I couldn't find it anywhere else. It almost seemed too good to be true. But it wasn't. The burner is now nestled in my new outdoor kitchen and am very pleased.
