A great outdoor kitchen should look the same in year ten as it did on day one. The cabinets that get there have a few things in common: weather-resistant construction, a finish system engineered to hold color in direct sun, a real warranty backing the core structure, and a dealer who installed them right the first time. Fortiva designed its proprietary material, finish library, and dealer-specified install process around exactly this question. How do we make an outdoor cabinet that outlasts the patio it sits on? Here is what to look for, whether you are specifying Fortiva or comparing options.
