If you're dreaming of cooking outdoors with style and function, the GRILLSKÄR series from IKEA might be exactly what you're looking for. Designed for modern outdoor living, GRILLSKÄR is a modular system that lets you build a fully equipped kitchen for your patio, balcony, or backyard without breaking the bank.
All photos in this article were taken by me, Mauritz, during visits to various IKEA stores. This is real, up-close inspiration from IKEA's own showrooms.
GRILLSKÄR is IKEA's dedicated outdoor kitchen collection. The series includes modular grill stations, sinks, storage units, and worktops, all designed to work together seamlessly. Whether you're building a small prep space or a full-blown barbecue setup, GRILLSKÄR makes it possible to mix and match according to your space and needs.
Gas Grill with Four Burners
Spacious and powerful, this unit allows for precise temperature control across multiple cooking zones.
Side Burner Module
Perfect for making sauces or side dishes while grilling the main course.
Sink Unit with Storage
Made from durable stainless steel — easy to clean and weather-resistant.
Worktops and Open Shelving
Extra surface space for food prep and practical shelves for storing tools and ingredients.
Each module is sold separately, which means you can start small and expand your setup over time.
One of the strengths of the GRILLSKÄR series is its weather-resistant construction:
Stainless Steel: Used for sinks, grill parts, and countertops. Rust-resistant and easy to clean.
Powder-Coated Steel: Adds durability and a sleek black look to cabinets and frames.
Galvanized Steel: Reinforces the structure and extends the product's lifespan outdoors.
This combination makes GRILLSKÄR well-suited for long-term outdoor use with proper care, it should hold up season after season.
✅ Modular Design – Flexible setup for any space or layout
✅ Affordable Price – Compared to built-in outdoor kitchens, this is budget-friendly
✅ Scandinavian Style – Clean, modern lines that blend with most garden settings
✅ Do-It-Yourself Friendly – Like most IKEA products, it's easy to assemble
If you're looking to build your outdoor kitchen without hiring a contractor or spending thousands, this system is a smart option.
One of the best parts of GRILLSKÄR is how good it looks. The matte black finish, stainless steel details, and open-shelf concept feel upscale without being flashy. You can style it minimal or rustic, depending on the setting and accessories.
From a sleek city balcony to a full backyard patio, GRILLSKÄR offers the flexibility and visual appeal that many homeowners are after right now.
If you're planning to cook more meals outside this season, GRILLSKÄR is a solid IKEA investment. With a modern look, flexible layout, and weatherproof design, it offers the feel of a built-in outdoor kitchen at a fraction of the cost.
