“I am delighted with the quality of my shelf and the security of the fittings on a cavity wall.”

“If it was for the beam alone (aged oak, 4ft, 6x6), I would give 5 stars - it's the real deal, heavy, solid and looks amazing above our stove. The problem is with the fixings supplied. All stoves now require metal studs behind them, not wooden, and the fixings are for the latter. In addition, the holes drilled into the back of the beam for the supplied rods are not the standard stud distance apart! Absolutely bizarre! We had to rout 3 channels in the back of the beam for brackets we had made and buy our own fixings for metal studs. We also got some hollow wall anchors to be sure and a good bead of strong adhesive. Like I say, great beam, but why supply it with fixings that no-one can use?”

Hello Clare, Thank you for your review. I am pleased you are happy with the look of your beam. In regards to the fixings I’m sorry to hear they are not what you expected. Unfortunately not every fitting situation is the same and it is impossible to provide a 'one size fits all' solution. The fixings provided with your fireplace beam are suitable for solid masonry walls, we find this is the most common scenario. The fixings are also suitable for fixing into timber stud work which may be the case with a false chimney breast. We don’t allow for any standard spacing like you’d find in a typical stud wall. We’ve found that there isn’t a common stud spacing when it comes to false chimney breasts. We’ve found this varies enormously. In which case we usually need to be told where the fixings need to be positioned. The only scenario we can’t provide a full fitting solution for are false chimney breast constructed from bolt together steelwork. You can however source your own self tapping steel screws which would work perfectly well with any of our fireplace beams that are supplied with keyhole brackets. Many thanks Rebecca

“Website very misleading. I was unable to have the beam anywhere near the stove as the pictures show due to it being a combustible material! Or without an additional ugly heat shield. The website has no mention of this at all, in fact if we'd fitted ourselves I would have placed it like the pics, much nearer and then its a fire risk! The beam itself is lovely, jus a shame it cannot be used as per the many pics on the website!”

Hi Lisa, we are sorry to hear you found our website misleading, Oak is a natural product so is a combustable material. We only manufacture our products and do not install them. I can see that you emailed our customer service team where you advised you would need to check the manual of your stove for the recommended safe distance to install your beam, or if you did not have that to contact a HETAS registered installer. It is impossible for us to give this advice when we are not on site and each stove gives out different heat outputs. We are happy to hear you found our Beam lovely and you should be able to instal it if you follow the correct proceedue of installation.

“I have had 'moments' buying things online, often they look nothing like the thing I thought I had bought or the quality was a bit 'Meh' but I'm so happy with the Oak Mantle that arrived yesterday and is now on the wall. It's beautiful and more than I'd hoped for. A suggestion to people fitting one, make a template of the back of the whole beam marking where the pre drilled holes are. I did this, measured three times etc and the beam slipped onto the mounts a treat. Well done.”
