Fire Beam Fitting Kit

Fire Beam Kit

Traditional Oak and Timber Co are now able to supply a fitting kit for your floating fireplace mantel.

Winter is nearly with us and the temperature is dropping so there is no time like the present for an oak fireplace!

Having a floating fireplace beam means you don't require any corbels or unsightly brackets, and as long as the beam is being fitted to a brick wall or equivalent the fixing is as strong as both options.

The fitting kit consists of:

  • Holes drilled to the back of the beam sufficient with the size and weight.
  • Threaded steel rod cut to length required for the holes.
  • All purpose bonding resin to hold the rods in the beam, and in the wall.

Once fitted a floating beam gives a modern look but keeping the beautiful character of an oak fireplace.

The kit is priced at £25 + VAT

Please feel free to contact for details.
