The Built-Ins are the right line if your outdoor-kitchen project is architectural, a permanent build with masonry walls, cabinetry, or fixed-frame construction, rather than a modular freestanding island.
The Built-Ins are the Mont Alpi grill chassis designed for permanent
installation in masonry or cabinetry-built outdoor kitchens. Where the modular Original, Black, and Deluxe Series are fully-assembled freestanding islands
that ship complete and can be relocated, the Built-Ins are the same Mont Alpi grill engine
engineered to drop into a custom outdoor-kitchen build. The line covers a 4-burner unit
(MAIB400) and a 6-burner unit (MAIB805), each available in
stainless steel and black stainless finishes. Both feature ceramic infrared rear burners and
304 stainless steel construction. Sold and serviced through Seven Seas Pools & Spas.

The Built-Ins are the right line if your outdoor-kitchen project is architectural, a permanent build with masonry walls, cabinetry, or fixed-frame construction, rather than a modular freestanding island.
Bring your project plans to Seven Seas Pools & Spas before ordering so the chassis, cutout dimensions, gas, electrical, ventilation, and finish choices match the build.
The line is structured around two burner counts and two finishes, with feature variants on each base:
MAIB400
4-burner stainless steel, the compact built-in chassis for smaller custom-kitchen builds
MAIB400-BSS
4-burner black stainless, the same chassis in black-stainless finish
MAIB400-BSS-HRFNM
4-burner black stainless feature variant
MAIB805
6-burner stainless steel, the larger built-in chassis for full-size custom kitchens
MAIB805-BSS
6-burner black stainless
MAIB805-BSS-S2CRA
6-burner black stainless feature variant
All variants share the 304 stainless steel construction and ceramic infrared rear burner. Specific cutout dimensions, BTU ratings, gas fittings, electrical service requirements, and ventilation clearances vary by model, these are supplied with each individual product specification and should be confirmed before drawing the surround. Bring the project plans, or a contractor, to a Seven Seas showroom before ordering so the dimensions can be matched to the kitchen build.
Built-in chassis selection touches gas, electrical, ventilation, and architectural detailing. Call ahead or stop by your local showroom to see the MAIB400 and MAIB805 chassis, confirm cutout dimensions, and review current stainless and black-stainless availability before ordering.
| Feature | Built-Ins | Original / Black / Deluxe Series |
|---|---|---|
| Form factor | Drop-in chassis | Fully-assembled freestanding island |
| Outdoor-kitchen surround | Built by you or your contractor in masonry, cabinetry, or custom architecture | Included, Mont Alpi delivers the complete island |
| Setup | Contractor installation into a custom build | Delivered fully-assembled, set up by homeowner or delivery crew |
| Movability | Permanent, part of the structure | Modular and portable, can be uninstalled and moved |
| Add-on modules | Pair with Specialty Modules in the same custom build | Snap on directly to the modular island chassis |
| Best for | Architectural outdoor-kitchen projects with a contractor | Households who want a centerpiece without a custom build |
If you're torn between the two paths, the Mont Alpi modular series offers most of what custom builds offer, multi-module configurations, premium finish, premium granite, lifetime-warranty chassis, integrated beverage/kegerator/kamado options, with no contractor required. The Built-Ins are the right call only when the rest of the kitchen is genuinely custom-architectural.
Built-in chassis selection touches gas, electrical, ventilation, and architectural detailing, decisions best made with the actual product in hand. Call or stop by your local Seven Seas location to see the MAIB400 and MAIB805 chassis in stainless and black stainless, confirm cutout dimensions for the build, and check current availability before ordering.
