When you buy a Kenyon grill it comes with the classic grilling grate, but what you may or may not know is that we offer a griddle attachment too! This is a direct replacement for the cooking grate on ALL of Kenyon’s electric grills. Simply remove the grate and place the griddle in its spot and you’re ready to cook!
They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so why shouldn’t we make it the most fun? Go from flipping burgers to making pancakes without leaving the backyard. Use the smooth griddle for eggs and pancakes (or anything else you wish to cook on a flat surface).
We wouldn’t want you to waste time on cleaning up either. Just pop the griddle in the dishwasher while you sit back and enjoy the (grilled) fruits of your labor.

Senior living and assisted living environments are evolving to support independence, safety, and quality of life for residents. One area that requires thoughtful planning is the design of in-unit kitchens and shared cooking spaces.
Residents want the ability to cook simple meals or prepare snacks independently, but operators and developers must balance this with risk management, accessibility requirements, and long-term operational safety.
Thoughtful appliance selection and layout planning can make a significant difference in creating kitchens that are both resident-friendly and compliant with accessibility standards.

A practical planning tool for developers, architects, and operators designing safe, accessible cooking spaces.
Senior living communities often serve residents with varying levels of mobility and ability. Designing kitchens with accessibility in mind from the beginning helps ensure spaces remain usable as residents’ needs change over time.
Early planning can help teams:
Accessible design is not only about meeting current requirements—it’s about building spaces that continue to serve residents safely over time.
When designing kitchens in senior or assisted living environments, accessibility should be addressed early in the process.
Key considerations include:
Controls should be accessible without excessive bending or reaching.
Front-mounted controls allow operation without reaching across hot surfaces.
Layouts should allow safe maneuverability for wheelchairs or walkers.
Controls should require minimal force and be intuitive to use.
While ADA compliance involves many aspects of kitchen design, appliance selection can play a significant role in overall accessibility and safety.
Appliances designed with accessibility in mind can help support safer, more usable kitchens in senior living environments.
Features commonly associated with ADA-friendly cooking appliances include:
These design elements can make cooking surfaces easier to operate and safer for residents with limited mobility or dexterity.
Kenyon offers a range of ADA-compliant electric grills and cooktops designed for accessible kitchens, supporting residential, hospitality, and institutional environments.
You can explore available models and accessibility features on our ADA-Compliant Grills and Cooktops for Every Space page.
These appliances are designed to support safe, functional cooking spaces while helping developers and operators meet accessibility goals.
One of the goals of modern senior living communities is supporting resident autonomy while maintaining a safe environment.
Accessible cooking spaces allow residents to:
Well-designed kitchens can enhance the overall resident experience while helping operators maintain safety standards.
When evaluating appliances for senior living kitchens, several design features can make daily cooking easier and safer for residents.
Accessible Control Design
Front-facing controls can reduce the need to reach across hot cooking surfaces.
Clear Visual Indicators
High-contrast indicators, lighting, or control markings help residents easily identify settings.
Smooth, Easy-to-Clean Surfaces
Flat cooking surfaces allow for quick cleaning and reduce the effort required for maintenance.
Reduced Burn Risk
Appliances designed to minimize exposed heat sources can help reduce burn hazards.
Durable Construction
Senior living kitchens often experience frequent use. Durable materials help reduce long-term maintenance needs.
These design considerations help create kitchens that are more usable for residents while also easier for staff to manage.
Cooking areas introduce several potential risks in senior living communities, including:
For operators, these risks also translate to liability concerns, insurance considerations, and regulatory compliance requirements.
Designing safer cooking environments helps communities:
Appliance technology plays an important role in helping reduce these risks.
Traditional gas appliances introduce open flames and exposed heating elements that can increase risk in environments where residents may have reduced mobility, slower reaction times, or limited dexterity.
Modern electric cooking technologies offer alternatives that can help reduce these concerns.
Benefits of electric cooking appliances may include:
For many senior living developers and operators, electric cooking solutions provide a balance between safety, usability, and resident independence.
Designing accessible kitchens in senior living environments involves many factors—from layout planning to appliance selection.
To help guide the process, we’ve created a Senior Living Kitchen ADA Checklist that highlights key considerations when evaluating cooking appliances and kitchen layouts.
The checklist includes:

âś” Safety features to evaluate

“Unfortunately, I live in New York City at the moment and open flames and propane bombs are frowned upon, to say the least, on my outdoor terrace. Which means I’ve been forced into using electric contraptions for the last two years. I’ve worked my way through at least half a dozen, and none of them even comes close to Kenyon’s Frontier Portable Grill.”
