Here are the basic bullet points highlighting why aluminum frames are often considered better than steel for BBQ island frames:
- Rust & Corrosion Resistance: Aluminum naturally forms a protective oxide layer, making it highly resistant to rust and corrosion, 1 especially important for outdoor applications exposed to rain and humidity. Steel, unless stainless or heavily treated (galvanized/powder-coated), is prone to rusting, which can compromise structural integrity over time.
- Ease of Handling & Fabrication: Due to its lower weight and relative softness compared to steel, aluminum is generally easier to cut, drill, and fasten, simplifying the construction process, especially for DIYers or complex designs.
- Durability in Outdoor Environments: Because it doesn't rust, aluminum maintains its structural integrity and appearance for longer in outdoor settings without needing the same level of protective coatings or maintenance as standard steel.
- Low Maintenance: Aluminum frames typically require less maintenance over their lifespan compared to steel frames, which may need inspections and touch-ups to address potential rust spots, especially if coatings get scratched or damaged.
