FAQ

Islands — what people ask

What gauge stainless steel is best for kitchen countertops?

For residential kitchen countertops, 16-gauge stainless steel is the professional standard — thick enough to resist dents and warping under daily use. 18-gauge is lighter and lower cost but dents more easily. Iron Sight typically recommends 16-gauge 304-grade stainless for all residential installations.

How long does custom stainless steel fabrication take in Santa Clarita?

Lead time for custom stainless steel countertops, islands, and range hoods is typically 2 to 4 weeks from approved design to installation, depending on complexity. Commercial kitchen projects run 4 to 6 weeks. Rush orders may be available — contact us for scheduling.

How much do custom stainless steel countertops cost compared to quartz or granite?

Custom stainless steel countertops fabricated and installed in Southern California typically run $80–$225 per square foot, depending on gauge, finish, cutouts, and complexity. Quartz countertops run $105–$185 per square foot installed; granite runs $95–$225. Stainless steel is competitively priced at the mid-to-upper range — and unlike stone, there are no seams on a custom-fabricated piece, no sealing required, and no risk of chipping.

Will stainless steel countertops scratch or dent?

Stainless steel will show fine surface scratches over time, especially in polished finishes. This is normal and not structural — scratches blend into the brushed #4 finish with ordinary use and can be buffed out. We recommend 16-gauge 304-grade steel for residential countertops: it is thick enough to resist denting under daily household use. Lighter 18-gauge steel will dent more easily and is better suited to lighter-duty applications.
