Product Description
This industrial style rectangular black zinc range hood combines disciplined geometry with handcrafted metal detailing. Its squared canopy maintains consistent depth, creating a substantial architectural presence above the cooking area. Horizontal and vertical straps divide the dark zinc surface into balanced sections, while evenly spaced rivets emphasize traditional metal construction. A vertically brushed finish introduces subtle movement across the otherwise restrained body and reduces harsh reflections. Unlike flared or bell-shaped hoods, this design relies on straight edges, rectangular massing, and a distinctive riveted grid for its character. Choose wall-mounted or kitchen-island preparation, with widths from 28 to 78 inches and heights from 24 to 72 inches. Custom dimensions allow the enclosure to coordinate with unusual cabinetry, ceiling heights, and cooking equipment. For more details about its squared construction and riveted framework, see our industrial black zinc hood guide. Order this custom rectangular zinc hood for a kitchen requiring bold industrial structure without unnecessary ornament.

Insert & Ventilation Planning
The enclosure can be prepared around different ventilation systems when specifications are provided before fabrication. Rustica House can supply a 200 CFM insert for lighter ventilation requirements. Buyers may also provide specifications for compatible internal inserts up to 1,260 CFM or external blower systems up to 1,500 CFM. The shell can be prepared for ducted or recirculating installations and for top or rear discharge where the selected equipment permits it. Insert dimensions, duct size, discharge position, and blower requirements should be confirmed before production.
Design Features
Rectangular Industrial Silhouette
The enclosure differs from traditional tapered and bell-shaped range hoods through its strong rectangular geometry. Squared corners and consistent depth create a substantial profile resembling architectural metalwork rather than a decorative canopy. The lower apron is subtly defined to produce a controlled shadow line without interrupting the clean shape. This geometry works especially well where cabinetry, windows, shelving, or masonry already establish strong horizontal and vertical lines.
Riveted Grid Strap Detailing
Horizontal and vertical straps cross the front to create the hood's defining grid pattern. Their placement divides the broad zinc surface into organized sections and gives a large hood visual rhythm. Round rivets follow the straps at measured intervals, adding handcrafted detail without relying on ornate molding or embossed decoration. Strapwork can continue around exposed sides, which is particularly important when the enclosure is ordered for an island installation.
Dark Brushed Zinc Surface
The zinc body has a darkened finish with visible vertical brushing. Rather than producing a uniform painted appearance, the treatment allows controlled tonal movement across the metal. Changes in surrounding light can reveal slightly lighter and darker areas, emphasizing the handmade surface. Zinc is a living material, so subtle changes in tone can continue as the hood ages. Natural variations between panels are part of its handcrafted character.
Industrial Design Character
This hood draws its visual strength from straightforward fabrication details: rectangular massing, exposed fasteners, metal bands, and a matte dark surface. These elements reference traditional industrial construction while remaining refined enough for residential interiors. Because the canopy avoids exaggerated curves and decorative crowns, it can coordinate with contemporary cabinetry as easily as brick, reclaimed timber, stone, concrete, or handmade tile.
Best Kitchen Styles
- Industrial loft: Exposed brick, steel windows, open shelving, concrete, and reclaimed timber reinforce the riveted grid and dark zinc surface
- Modern rustic: Natural stone and aged wood soften the black zinc while the rectangular enclosure adds clean architectural structure
- Transitional industrial: Refined cabinetry and simple stone counters balance the visible straps and rivets without hiding their handcrafted character
- Urban contemporary: Minimal cabinetry, large-format surfaces, dark hardware, and restrained materials complement the squared geometric canopy

Customization Options
Each hood is made to order, allowing its dimensions and internal preparation to be coordinated with the kitchen rather than forcing the project around a fixed enclosure. Width can be selected from standard sizes or customized within the available range. Height can be adjusted for ceiling conditions, cabinetry, and desired visual proportions. The standard 24-inch depth provides generous coverage, while alternative depths can be discussed when the cooking equipment or installation requires different proportions.
- Widths from 28 to 78 inches
- Heights from 24 to 72 inches
- Custom dimensions when required
- Standard 24-inch hood depth
- Wall or island preparation
- Top or rear vent preparation
- Insert opening prepared before fabrication
Handcrafted Construction
Each enclosure is formed individually rather than produced as a standardized stamped shell. Panels are shaped and assembled before the straps and rivets are aligned across the rectangular body. Hand fabrication can create slight differences in patina, brushing, seams, rivet placement, and strap alignment. These variations distinguish artisan metalwork from a machine-finished surface and mean that two completed hoods will not be visually identical.

Shipping and Returns
This industrial style zinc range hood is made to order and protected for freight transportation. Production and delivery timing can vary with dimensions, finish selections, ventilation preparation, and current production volume. Inspect the shipment when it arrives and follow the carrier instructions if transportation damage is visible. Review the current shipping and returns information before ordering, especially when selecting custom dimensions or project-specific modifications.
Warranty
Review the current product coverage, order conditions, and applicable warranty information before purchasing. Because every hood is fabricated for an individual order, confirm dimensions, finish, mounting configuration, and ventilation specifications before production begins. Current warranty and policy information is available through the shipping, returns, and warranty information.
Installation
Plan structural support before the finished hood arrives. Wall-mounted versions should fasten securely to framing or appropriate blocking rather than decorative wall finishes alone. Island versions require adequate overhead structure because the enclosure is visible and supported from above. Final mounting height should follow the requirements of the selected cooking appliance, ventilation insert, applicable building codes, and project conditions. Keeping duct runs appropriately sized and direct can also improve ventilation performance.
Care and Maintenance
Clean the dark zinc surface with mild soap, water, and a soft cloth, then dry it carefully. Avoid abrasive pads, acidic cleaners, ammonia, and aggressive metal polishes because they can alter the patina or brushing pattern. Zinc naturally develops additional tonal character with use and age. Small variations, handling marks, and gradual changes should be expected from a handcrafted living-metal surface rather than treated as manufacturing defects.
Disclaimer: Handmade product. Variations in zinc tone, patina, brushing, seams, rivet spacing, and strap alignment are natural characteristics of artisan fabrication.
