Choosing a patio braai

A patio braai stands on its own cabinet or pedestal, so you get a full-size braai without building a brick surround. It is ideal for rented homes, new patios and anyone who wants to move the braai later.

Check the grid size, cabinet storage, side fire baskets and wheels. Place the braai on a level, non-combustible surface, away from walls, timber and low roofs, with room for the smoke to clear. Under a roof, a flue or canopy may still be needed.

Patio braais on this site start at R12,122 incl. VAT. Choose stainless steel for coastal homes and exposed patios.

Most patio braais are delivered and set up rather than installed, and we can add a flue or canopy where needed. 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, measure the space, check the roof height above the braai position and look at how you will get the unit through gates and doors — some cabinets are large. Send us photos of the patio and we will confirm whether a flue or canopy is needed and give you a delivery date. Many customers pair a patio braai with a canopy or extractor fan for covered areas, and we can quote both together so they match in size and finish.

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

Does a patio braai need installation?

Usually not — it's delivered and set up. Under a covered patio we may recommend a flue or canopy.

Can I use a patio braai under a roof?

Only with enough height and ventilation. Ask us about a flue or canopy for covered areas.

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.

Mild or stainless steel?

Mild steel suits covered inland patios; stainless steel lasts longer near the sea or where rain reaches it.
