- You need a complete equipment package for a new kitchen.
- New equipment must fit existing utilities and clearances.
- Delivery, rigging and installation need to align with construction.

A practical sequence for the work.
The exact responsibilities are confirmed in the proposal. This is the planning path we use to expose missing information before it reaches the site.
Build the equipment schedule
List each appliance, model, dimensions, utility requirements and required clearances before ordering.
Check fit and access
Confirm the room layout, hood coverage, service space and the route through doors, corridors, elevators or loading areas.
Sequence delivery and setup
Coordinate site readiness, delivery, placement, specialist connections, startup and the deficiency review.
Questions owners ask first.
Should equipment be selected before the kitchen is designed?
The menu, throughput and equipment schedule should evolve with the layout. Waiting until construction is underway can create utility, clearance, ventilation and access conflicts.
Can owner-supplied equipment be incorporated?
Yes, if it is suitable. We need its condition, listing, dimensions, utility requirements and installer before adding it to the drawings and price.
Can APEX work with an equipment dealer we already selected?
Yes. Share the dealer quote and model schedule early. APEX can coordinate clearances, utility requirements, delivery access, site readiness and installation responsibilities. The proposal will separate the equipment supplier's work from the construction and specialist-trade scope.
