Mantel Requirements
•
Use the table below to determine the maximum mantel depth allowed. The mantel depth (measured
from the face of the fireplace) must fall in the shaded portion of the table.
•
Any material that protrudes more than 3/4" from the non-combustible facing is considered a mantel
and must meet the mantel requirements.

Mantel
(combustible or non-combustible)
Combustible mantel columns (legs) that
protrude more than 3/4" from the glass
frame must meet the sidewall clearance (1"
from the face). If they protrude 3/4" or less,
they do not have a minimum clearance.
Non-combustible mantel columns do not
have a minimum clearance.
