Stainless Steel Mantel and Screen for Outdoor Fireplace with TV - Project #11235

Customer Comments: Hello, we are interested in getting a non combustible mantel for our outdoor fireplace. Our white brick fireplace is 62" wide and there is 11" between the top of the fireplace opening and the bottom of the TV, which is 38" wide across at the bottom of the TV. We would like the mantel to match as close as possible to the dark gray granite that you see at the bottom of the fireplace. Looking at your finishes, which finish do you think would match the best? Thank you.

Our Comments: We recommend Stainless Steel with a Natural Iron Powder Coat Finish for this application. Stainless steel is quote a bit more expensive, but it will better resist corrosion and last many more years than the standard steel mantels that are used indoors. We would include a special high temperature ceramic blanket insulation inside the mantel to better protect the TV from heat. Without the ceramic, the heat will simply transfer right through the steel mantel. We also recommend adding a glass door or flat fireplace screen to prevent critters from getting into the fireplace and using it as a litter box...(yes, this is common in outdoor fireplaces).

Stainless Steel Mantel

This mantel can be custom made to whatever width and height you want. We recommend making it 60" Wide x 3" Tall x 8" Deep. We would also include a special ceramic insulation, which drastically reduces the heat at top surface of the mantel, better protecting your TV.

Glass Door Mesh Options

If you are planning on burning anything in your fireplace, you need to have mesh behind the glass so you can burn a fire with the doors open. You can chooe between gate mesh backup doors and sliding mesh curtains. Functionally, gate mesh performs the best as the wire has smaller holes that sparks cannot get through. Aesthetically, mesh curtains may be preferred because they do not have a vertical center frame that obstructs the view of the fire. When you are not using the fire or you want a complete unobstructed view, they do not stick out like gate mesh doors when they are opened.

We are showing these options on a flat steel bifold door with a satin brass overlay and gray glass.
