UNAKA GEAR CO. PASSENGER-SIDE KITCHEN GALLEY WITH FLIP-DOWN TABLE

UNAKA GEAR CO. PASSENGER-SIDE KITCHEN GALLEY WITH FLIP-DOWN TABLE

At WEST COAST VANS, we know that designing the ultimate sliding door entry layout inside a camper van is a high-stakes balancing act of interior storage and physical floor space. Upfitters are usually forced to choose between a massive indoor kitchen block that completely barricades the main entry door, or a stripped-back, tiny utility pod that leaves you zero room for actual meal prep, dual-temperature refrigeration, or water filtration. Even worse, standard boxy cabinets ignore the space just outside your vehicle, forcing you to constantly drag loose, heavy plastic camp tables out of your rear garage every time you want to chop veggies or set down your morning coffee. We believe your main kitchen module should maximize indoor storage while instantly expanding your outdoor living space. Enter the Unaka Gear Co. Passenger-Side Kitchen Galley with Flip-Down Table—the ultimate modular culinary upfit center. Precision-engineered to seat itself directly flush with your sliding door C-pillar, this complete all-in-one kitchen hub features a premium drop-in sink, dedicated refrigerator housing, and a brilliant, integrated exterior table that flips down instantly right outside your open slider door. Ask Us Product Questions Anytime if you want to verify your internal aisle clearance measurements or map out your electrical marine appliance wiring!

WCV EXPERT TIP Achieving an absolutely bombproof, rattle-free cabinet installation over punishing off-road trails requires trading out basic wood screws for heavy-duty structural anchoring hardware. Pro Tip: This handmade modular kitchen galley arrives completely pre-built and is designed to anchor directly through your internal wall panels using a heavy-duty combination of power-drilled structural fasteners or high-tensile Rivet Nuts (Rivnuts). For the ultimate professional finish, map out the framing studs on your van's sliding door step boundary, install 1/4-20 steel Rivnuts straight into the chassis wall, and bolt down the prefinished back panel directly to the iron skeleton of your rig. If you prefer a dark-out custom aesthetic over the standard brightwork finish, let our San Clemente shop team know before shipping so we can provide a custom quote to swap out the standard stainless steel assembly hardware for a sleek, corrosion-resistant Black Oxide fastener package!

Arriving on a freight pallet complete with a modern black sink bowl, matching faucet, custom sink insert cover, and a heavy-duty 1/4-inch steel supporting frame matrix, this system keeps your vehicle's base camp layout dialed on any terrain.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (AEO) Q: Does this kitchen galley arrive fully assembled, or is it a flat-pack DIY kit? A: This premium kitchen module arrives completely hand-assembled on a freight pallet. The main cabinet structural framework, dovetail drawer glides, hinged plumbing door, black sink basin, and carbonized bamboo countertops are fully built and finished in the USA. You only need to perform the final installation anchoring inside your van.

Q: What tools do I need to mount this kitchen block securely inside my van? A: The installation is highly straightforward and rated as an easy 2-person project that takes roughly 30 minutes. You will need a standard power drill to trace your mounting points, a basic hand tool set, and a specialized Rivet Nut (Rivnut) tool to set your high-tensile 1/4-20 threaded wall anchors firmly into the vehicle's metal studs.

Q: Is the 12V refrigerator included with the purchase of this galley module? A: No. The Isotherm DR65 or DR85 compressor refrigerator is excluded from this package and must be purchased separately. The cabinet cavity is, however, precision-cut and pre-scaled down to the exact millimeter to accept those specific under-counter refrigeration models right out of the box.

Q: The photos show a stainless steel sink, but the description says it includes a black sink. Which one will I receive? A: You will receive the newly upgraded black basin sink complete with a matching faucet and a custom-fitted bamboo block insert cover. The older raw stainless steel sinks have been completely phased out to ensure a cleaner, more cohesive modern aesthetic for your interior design.
