True Caliber, a luxury home brand uniting commercial refrigeration expertise with professional-grade grilling, is launching a newly enhanced Signature Rockwell. The grill is debuting in Crimson—the original, legacy finish of the Caliber/Rockwell collaboration. The iconic hue celebrates the core vision of legendary architect David Rockwell: a freestanding, 360-degree walk-around social grill designed to mimic the communal experience
of gathering around a picnic table. A sculptural powerhouse of performance and design, the Signature Rockwell is the world’s first social grill, reimagined for those who demand precision at every degree.
Designed to serve as the ultimate outdoor centerpiece, the freestanding Signature Rockwell invites guests to gather, connect, and participate in the culinary process from every vantage point. Its most transformative feature is a fully retractable “disappearing lid” that slides seamlessly beneath the cooktop when open. This innovation provides a panoramic, unobstructed view of the grill surface and ensures effortless access, turning outdoor cooking into a shared performance rather than a solitary task.
“The Signature Rockwell was designed to fulfill both the aesthetic and essential needs of the modern grilling experience, combining performance, versatility, and user-focused design,” says Kay Trulaske, Sales & Marketing, True Caliber. “The new freestanding unit introduces unprecedented flexibility—whether serving as a stationary focal point or moving effortlessly on smooth-gliding casters, it extends beyond the traditional outdoor kitchen footprint to become a dynamic social hub that adapts to the flow of any luxury environment.” The grill’s high-performance engineering is as impressive as its distinguished design. Key enhancements include:
- Precision Heating: Three industry-exclusive 20,000 BTU Crossflame™ burners (60,000 BTUs total) provide even, consistent heat across a generous 666-square-inch active grilling surface. The design also features an integrated side surface that expands the functional workspace, offering a dedicated area for plating, prepping, or presenting dishes directly at the grill.
- Advanced Engineering: To ensure longevity in all climates, True has outfitted the grill with durable Weber Knapp hinges and a firebox pitched at
a steeper angle to significantly improve grease management and flow. - Furniture-Inspired Craftsmanship: The grill features a handcrafted marine-grade aluminum body paired with an architectural sapele base,
constructed with the same 300-series stainless steel found in True’s commercial-grade refrigeration. - Bespoke Personalization: Fully customizable through the Build Your True program, the grill is available in True’s curated palette of finishes and six
hardware options, yielding 96 unique color combinations. For a truly one-of-a-kind aesthetic, clients can opt for True’s custom color-matching capabilities, which include the option to utilize automotive-grade paints for a specific, high-durability aesthetic. - 2026 Legacy Hue: The new and enhanced design is being unveiled in Crimson, True Caliber’s homage to the original Signature Rockwell. A richly saturated red with a lustrous finish, this impactful classic adds personality and warmth while maintaining a bold presence. The new Crimson finish will be available across the full portfolio of Caliber’s outdoor grills and True Residential’s indoor and outdoor refrigeration.
- Versatile Mobility: Designed for flexibility in both residential and hospitality spaces, the unit can be configured as a stationary model with precision leg levelers or as a mobile unit on smooth-gliding casters.
When paired with True Residential’s UL-rated undercounter refrigeration units, designers and homeowners can now execute a completely cohesive, all-inclusive outdoor kitchen program.
