The right fireplace accessories can completely change your fireplace’s appearance.
There is a wide range of fireplace and stove accessories available on the market today. Whether you are looking to fill a functional need (i.e. a fireplace screen, door, or tool set) or pick out an accent to complete your hearth (i.e. a mantel, hearth pad or rug), there is a wide selection of products that will meet your needs. At Northeastern Fireplace & Design, we carry a wide range of these products. We offer custom screens, glass doors, tool sets, rugs, grates, hearth pads (tile and stone), mantels, and much, much more.
SCREENS & GLASS DOORS
Some type of barrier between your room and the fire in the fireplace is recommended to maintain the safety of your home and prevent against rogue sparks when the fireplace is in use. Flat metal screens or folded decorative screens are the most common types and both are beneficial to have when a fire is lit. Screens come in many different styles and can turn a drab fireplace into a majestic focal point of the room.
TOOL SETS & GRATES
Fireplace tool sets typically include brooms, tongs, pokers and shovels for all of your fire tending needs. Fireplace grates help to keep the wood off of your fireplace floor, thereby allowing the wood to burn more fully and more efficiently, thereby producing more heat for you and your family to enjoy. They are almost a necessity when using a fireplace. They protect our fireplaces and make more efficient fires that in the long run pay for themselves.
MANTELS
For many homeowners, the purpose of the mantel is equally as important as the look. From a visual standpoint, it acts as a crown for the fireplace and allows a decorative display area for family pictures, art pieces and seasonal decorations. Depending on your personal preferences, your mantel selection can go in one of two general directions:
- You prefer a mantel that holds family mementos.
- You prefer a slim and sleek design that doesn’t hold anything.
Your mantel can become the place for displaying your family’s photos and achievements, or it can be left bare and welcoming all on its own.
HEARTH PADS & RUGS
Both of these items help protect and prevent damage to floors. Hearth pads provide a stable, non-combustible foundation for any stove or insert—and are required to pass inspections. We can match any décor with numerous attractive options. Hearth rugs give you the perfect finishing touch to your fireplace. Fire-resistant fireplace rugs offer your fireplace and your family increased safety, convenience, and warmth while providing incredible beauty and elegance at the same time. Both of these are a true win-win proposition.
