Metal Surrounds
Using cast iron insert surrounds alongside period style fireplace mantels and insert wood burners gives a traditional period style to your new fireplace. Steel plates and frames can be the perfect fireplace backing for a contemporary inset wood buner. The metal surround heats up with the stove and stores the energy; continuing to release the heat long after the fire has died down. Metal surrounds are either; fully polished cast iron, highlighted (semi-polished) cast iron, painted or enamelled as with the Vlaze fireplace panel range.
