No, these stone mantels are NOT recommended for vent-free fireplaces.
It depends on the products. Some already come preassembled while others are not. Look at 'Features & Benefits' under the product description to find out if the mantel you are interested in comes assembled. Or give our customer service team a call.
The mantel shelf does little to deflect the heat of a fireplace. These shelves have to be installed at a higher height, pushing up your TV. This could cause neck pain when viewing your TV. Also, the mantel will not protect the TV from the heat and smoke. We would recommend installing a fireplace hood to safeguard anything above your fireplace.
Yes, that finish would be the closest color to gunmetal.
Absolutely. Just make sure when installing to anchor the mantel into the mortar joints. If you drill directly into the bricks, the stone might split and crack.
The mantel shelf needs to be installed with the appropriate height clearance above your firebox to avoid this issue. The proper measurements for the clearance can be found in the owner's manual.
A corbel is used as a support, bracket, or decorative accent that projects from a wall underneath a structure.
Corbels are traditionally used to as ornamental supports underneath roofs, along with columns, underneath ledges, and many more applications.
We offer a range of corbels that can be used with mantels, shelves, and other home decor!
Regardless if you have vented gas logs in your masonry fireplace or vent-free logs in your prefabricated unit, your fireplace doors should always be open and the mesh screens closed when using your gas logs. This promotes adequate airflow to the gas logs. Keeping your fireplace doors shut while your gas logs are in use can lead to overheating of these decorative pieces and cause damage to them and your fireplace.
Always remember to read and follow the instructions located in the owner's manuals for both your fireplace and gas log set!
Vented gas logs don't burn "cleanly" and give off exhaust just like a wood-burning fireplace. That is why they must be burned in a vented fireplace with the damper open so that the exhaust can go up the chimney.
Only if your bedroom has multiple entrances/ exits. They are not approved for any room that only has one exit that may prevent one from leaving the room if there is a fire, and it's blocking the only exit.
NO, these outdoor gas logs are for vented but covered applications only, like an outdoor fireplace.
We do have a line of fire pit log sets that are approved gas fire pits only and must be used with lava granules or coals to prevent the logs cracking and breaking from being exposed directly to the heat of the burner.
All log sets from R.H. Peterson's Real Fyre are made of refractory cement, which is stronger than ceramic fiber -- another common material used in log sets. The hand painting process also increases the life of the log set's paint since it is the most durable method.
Match Lit ignitions have fewer parts and there's no pilot assembly to conceal. This ignition system is also more reliable because there's no thermocouple or valve to fail. The downside is that it will require a match or lighter to be lit every time.
Automatic Pilot ignitions can be controlled just by opening the valve because they use a small standing pilot light. They do, however, constantly use small amounts of fuel.
No, these gas baskets do not have blowers built into them. A lot of the heat generated by vented gas coal baskets is sucked up through the chimney.
You can take the screen out, however, FireplaceDoorsOnline.com does not recommend altering your fireplace or fireplace door for safety reasons. The mesh curtain or mesh door is there to help protect you from sparks.
Yes, the 19 gauge stainless steel mesh curtains work very nicely for outdoor fireplaces that are exposed to the weather.
PLEASE NOTE: The stainless steel mesh curtains will discolor if they make direct contact with the flames or if the fire is too hot.
If you're installing mesh curtains after your doors are already in place, and the doors did not come with curtains, you can still put in an angled curtain rod. However, do keep in mind that it will need to be installed far enough back in your firebox to provide enough clearance for your fireplace doors to close.
If you are installing the mesh curtain rod in a masonry fireplace, make sure to drill in-between the stonework and not directly into the brick. This can cause the brick to crack or shatter.
Yes, our mesh curtain pulls come in pairs.
The lintel clamp that holds the lintel support bar in place is long, allowing the clamp to fit across the thick edge of the masonry stone or brick. The lintel support bar is what the curtain rod and top fender attach to.
Prefabricated fireplaces don't have a deep edge, and the lintel clamp would not have enough surface area to attach properly.
The glass panel covering the front of a direct vent fireplace can get very hot. A fireplace mesh screen adds a safety barrier while also adding an extra decorative element.
No, the curved screens do not have any feet because they are balanced out by the curved frame.
Yes. These gloves can withstand the heat. However, for safety reasons, Fireplace Doors Online never recommends reaching into a fire while it's burning.
Look at the product name to see if it's listed as a zero clearance fireplace grate. Also, read through the product description to find out if it's safe to use in wood-burning stoves or fireplaces. If you're still not sure, give us a call at the phone number listed at the bottom of our website. Or start an online chat with one of our customer service team members.
Yes, fireplace surround panels can be used on both masonry and prefabricated fireplaces.
It depends on the brand, but if you purchased your rug through us, then yes! All of our hearth rugs are washable. Simply toss them in the washer with a mild detergent and lay out flat to dry.
