Keep the bottom of the mantel at least 6 inches above the glass trim for units under 50,000 BTU and 12 inches for units over 50,000 BTU, or more if the fireplace manual says so.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask us\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich lengths and finishes can I order?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe list the \u003cb\u003e72 inch\u003c\/b\u003e in Maduro and Pale Honey, and the \u003cb\u003e84 inch\u003c\/b\u003e in Eclipse and Pale Honey.

It also says to follow local building codes and the fireplace manufacturer's minimum clearances. Your fireplace manual has the final say, so check its mantel clearance before you mark the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow does it mount?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt hangs on a 3 by 3 inch mounting bracket. The bracket goes into the studs with two 2.5 inch screws per stud, then three 2.25 inch self-drilling screws fix the mantel to it through the pre-drilled holes in the top. Lexington Hearth calls for \u003cb\u003eat least four studs\u003c\/b\u003e for the Farmhouse. On masonry, use anchors rated for four times the load, and use non-combustible shims if you need to level it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill my wall hold 235 lbs?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat depends on the framing. Lexington Hearth's guide covers wood-framed walls and says to open the wall and add studs if there are not enough, using 16 gauge metal studs in the non-combustible zone. If you are unsure, have a contractor look at the wall before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I cut or drill it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Lexington Hearth warns against drilling, sawing, sanding or machining its cast mantels, because that can release ceramic fiber and crystalline silica dust. Use the pre-drilled holes, and if you need a different length, ask us about a factory custom length. Also keep tape off the painted finish; cover it with paper or plastic first.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lexington","offers":[{"title":"72\" \/ Maduro","offer_id":67630694695186,"sku":"FH-6-LH-MD","price":2299.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"72\" \/ Pale Honey","offer_id":67630694727954,"sku":"FH-6-LH-PH","price":2299.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"84\" \/ Eclipse","offer_id":67630694760722,"sku":"FH-7-LH-EC","price":2399.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"84\" \/ Pale Honey","offer_id":67630694793490,"sku":"FH-7-LH-PH","price":2399.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0733\/2279\/1186\/files\/lexington-hearth-farmhouse-non-combustible-mantel.webp?v=1792563810","url":"https:\/\/www.aquaterrabackyard.com\/products\/lexington-hearth-farmhouse-non-combustible-mantel","provider":"Aqua Terra Backyard","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
