Product Information
Full details
The HOMCOM 3-Panel Folding Fireplace Screen is designed for homeowners who prioritize both safety and aesthetic appeal around their hearth. It serves as a robust barrier against flying embers and sparks, effectively protecting pets and children from accidental contact with the fire. While the minimalist black design integrates well with most decor, users should note that the lightweight structure is intended as a safety boundary rather than a climb-proof barrier for small toddlers or active pets.

FAQs
Does this screen require mounting to the wall?
No, it is a freestanding unit that stays in place through its hinged folding design.
Can I use this for a gas fireplace?
Yes, it is suitable for both wood-burning and gas fireplaces, provided it is placed at a safe distance from the heat source.
Is the material rust-resistant?
The black powder-coated finish provides a level of protection, but it should be kept dry and stored indoors to prevent moisture-related damage.
What are the dimensions when folded?
When folded for storage, the screen measures 61W x 2D x 75H cm.
Will this prevent a toddler from touching the fire?
While it serves as a deterrent, it is not a fixed safety gate and can be pushed over; adult supervision is always required around fireplaces.
Can it be used on a carpeted floor?
It is best used on a non-combustible surface like a hearth or stone floor for maximum safety.
Troubleshooting
Screen feels unstable on the hearth
Adjust the angle of the side panels to create a wider footprint, which improves the center of gravity and balance.
Screen arrived with minor dust or debris
The powder-coated surface can be easily wiped clean with a soft, dry cloth without damaging the finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: There is no assembly required. Simply unfold the panels and position them in front of your fireplace. Ensure the screen is placed on a flat, level surface to prevent wobbling.
Compatibility: With overall dimensions of 122W x 75H cm, this screen is compatible with most standard residential fireplaces. Always measure your fireplace opening before purchase to ensure the screen provides adequate coverage.
Care: Use a soft, dry cloth or a slightly damp microfiber cloth to wipe down the powder-coated frame. Avoid using abrasive chemicals or harsh scrubbers, as these may scratch the protective finish. Ensure the screen is completely cool before attempting to move or store it.
