Why choose a combo braai?

A combo braai combines a wood or charcoal braai with gas burners in one unit, so you can cook a quick weeknight meal on gas and still light a proper fire for the weekend. It saves space compared with two separate units.

Combo braais come built-in or on a cabinet, in mild steel for covered inland patios and in stainless steel for coastal homes. Check the number of gas burners, the grid width and whether the flue kit is included.

The gas side needs an LPG cylinder outside on a level base, with piping and a regulator installed and signed off with a gas Certificate of Conformity by a registered installer. Prices start at R15,044 incl. VAT.

Standard single-storey braai installation in Cape Town is R5,500 incl. VAT, with gas connection quoted on site. We install within 200 km of Cape Town — the City, Northern and Southern Suburbs, the Cape Winelands, Overberg and West Coast — and courier anywhere in South Africa.

Before ordering, decide where the gas cylinder will stand and how far the pipe must run to the braai. Send us photos of the position, the opening size and the roof above it. We then confirm the flue lengths, gas piping and installation price, so you know the complete cost before you pay.

Progress Group has supplied and installed fireplaces, braais and heating in the Western Cape since 1990. Visit our Bellville showroom to see units in person, or send us photos and measurements of your space for a free written quote. We confirm stock, delivery dates and every installation cost before you pay, so there are no surprises on the day.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use wood and gas at the same time?

Most combo braais let you run both sides together, so you can sear on wood and keep sides warm on gas.

Does a combo braai need a gas CoC?

Yes. The gas connection must be installed by a registered gas installer who issues a Certificate of Conformity.

How much does installation cost?

Standard single-storey fireplace or braai installation inside Cape Town is R5,500 incl. VAT, and double-storey installation is R8,000. Travel is added beyond Cape Town, and outside our 200 km install area we courier the unit to you.

Do you deliver outside Cape Town?

Yes. We install within 200 km of Cape Town and courier anywhere in South Africa. Stock items usually leave our Bellville showroom within days; allow about two weeks if a model is not in stock.
