Product Information
Full details
The Fire Vida Stanton 4 Panel Fire Guard is designed for homeowners seeking a balance between safety and style for their open fireplaces or stoves. It provides a robust barrier against stray embers and heat, making it an essential addition for households with children or pets. While its sleek black finish fits most modern and traditional decors, users should note that the physical dimensions require a stable, flat surface for proper positioning, and the metallic surface may become warm to the touch during extended use.

FAQs
Does the Fire Vida Stanton guard require any tools for assembly?
No, the fire guard arrives fully assembled and is ready for use immediately upon unpacking.
What are the dimensions when folded?
When folded for storage, the guard measures H60 x W25 x D7cm.
Can this be used on a wood-burning stove?
Yes, it is suitable for most stoves, provided you have sufficient floor space to place it securely around the unit.
Is the material heat-resistant?
The guard is made of durable metal intended for fireplace use, though it will become hot to the touch if placed too close to a roaring fire.
How do I clean the black finish?
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers to keep the finish intact.
What is the maximum width this guard can cover?
The guard is designed to cover a maximum width of 98cm when fully unfolded.
Troubleshooting
The fire guard feels unstable on the hearth.
Adjust the angle of the four panels to create a slight zig-zag or accordion shape, which provides better weight distribution and stability than a straight-line setup.
The hinges are becoming stiff.
Ensure no soot or debris is stuck in the hinge joints. Gently wipe the hinges clean; if the issue persists, a tiny amount of food-safe lubricant may be applied, though cleaning is usually sufficient.
The finish has minor scratches.
Minor surface scratches can be touched up with a high-temperature black matte metal paint specifically designed for fire-rated products.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is non-existent as the unit ships pre-assembled. Ensure the fire guard is placed on a flat, level surface to maintain its stability.
Compatibility:
This unit is best suited for standard-sized fireplaces with a maximum width of 98cm. Before purchasing, measure your fireplace opening to ensure the guard can sit comfortably with enough clearance on all sides.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to remove dust or ash. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can strip the black finish.
- Inspection: Periodically check the hinges to ensure they remain tight and move freely without obstruction.
- Safety: Always allow the guard to cool completely before attempting to move or store it after a fire has been extinguished.
