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 facing material that protrudes more than 3/4" from the face of the fireplace is considered a
mantel and must meet the mantel requirements.

Combustible mantel columns (legs) that
protrude more than 3/4" from the glass
frame must meet the sidewall clearance (1").
If they protrude 3/4" or less, they may be
placed directly to the side (but not in front) of
the fireplace.
Non-combustible mantel columns do not
have a minimum clearance.
