Fireplaces are an instant focal point in any room, and one thing that really draws attention is the mantel.

These versatile pieces are available in a variety of sizes, carvings, and finishes. From clean and simple lines to more ornate and intricate patterns, we have a shelf to suite every home decor. Mantel shelves are easily mounted to the wall and appear to be "floating" above the hearth. This magical charm is one of the many reasons that our customers are choosing this technique to adorn a newly installed fireplace insert or give an existing feature a facelift. We have also found that many people use mantel shelves as freestanding wall displays for artwork and antiques, while others have paired them with a set of decorative corbels and fashioned unique headboards for their bedrooms!

How do I install a fireplace mantel? Mantel Installation After receiving your crated mantel follow these steps to install your mantel. Flip the crate on its side so that the bottom of the crate is exposed. All screws that secure the mantel to the crate are located here. All screws you see throughout the uncrating and installation process will need to be removed. A Square #2 drill bit will be ideal for the removal. After the removal of all the screws from the underside of the crate, you will need to remove the top of the crate. All of our crates are secured with staples on all six sides so this will require a little effort to remove the top of the crate. A crow bar or similar shaped object such as the back of a claw hammer are ideal to pry into the creases in the top layer of plywood. Once you have the top popped off the easy part of the installation begins. We have over 100 possible mantel configurations so each mantel is packaged a little different to maximize shipping efficiency. Most of the time the first thing you will see when you open the crate is the breast (the large upper part) of the mantel and two legs. Shelf style mantels without legs will be fully assembled and ready to install after removal from the crate. For full mantels with legs, cut the strapping that secures the legs to the breast of the mantel and carefully remove the three pieces from the crate. Be careful not to scrape the mantel parts against each other after they have been unstrapped. Remove the scribe molding from the back of the breast and sometimes the back of the legs. Once again, every screw you see needs to be removed from the mantel before installation. Do not attempt to install the mantel with any of the crating pieces attached to the mantel. Remove all screws. After you have removed all screws, place the breast portion of the mantel upside down on its shelf. Make sure you have a smooth, clean surface to do this and do not slide the mantel while on its shelf because debris may scratch the surface. Take the legs of the mantel and insert the appropriately assigned legs to each side of the mantel while it is upside down. The legs will fit so securely you may need to lightly tap on the feet of the mantel downward to the ground to firmly secure the legs to the breast. Once the mantel legs are secured to the breast, look for the predrilled screw holes in the back of the mantel where the legs and breast meet and where the returns and breast meet. Take the small silver screws that shipped with the mantel and use them to secure the portions of the mantel together. Once the mantel is assembled check out our videos below for different types of installation. Fireplace Mantel Dimensions The dimensions for each mantel vary. Every mantel we build is custom built to fit your fireplace. Therefore, there aren't many set dimensions except for dimensions like: shelf depth, breast height, leg width, leg depth, etc. If you can email a picture with measurements of your fireplace, we can draw up exact dimensions of the mantels we can build for you and what we recommend. If you see something you would like to change we can change it for you. ======================= Fireplace mantels are wooden framework that stand over fireplaces to refine their appearance and serve as a base to lay decorative items on the mantel. Fireplace mantels bring exquisite beauty to a living room. Getting creative with the look of a fireplace mantel can produce rewarding results without looking too out-of-the-box. As long as it fits the look of the room and fits your tastes, anything goes. Fireplace mantels are also a great setting to place artwork, a large picture, or hang a decorative piece over. Extra touches to room decor like these make a huge difference in the end. ======================= Mounting your new mantel is a fairly simple project. There are two basic ways to mount the beam depending on the construction of your fireplace. The first method is mounting a mantel where there will be stonework surrounding the fireplace. The second method covers mounting your beam by attaching it to a 2 by 4. Both methods are described below. We will be glad to answer any additional questions you may have about mounting your new mantel. Please feel free to email us with any further questions. Mounting a beam with stonework Mounting MantelsIf you are mounting a mantel where there will be stonework laid later, we recommend that you use steel straps on your mantel. We have steel straps available for mounting. Please inquire if you would like to purchase these from us. These straps are predrilled with holes every 2 inches. The steel straps are screwed to the back of the beam, with one hole extending below the beam and 2 to 3 holes extending above the beam. We suggest that you use one strap per 25 pounds (ie: 4 straps for a 100 pound beam). Locate the wood framing on the wall and attach straps using 3 to 3 1/2 inch screws. Hint: To keep from burying your mantel in the stone, you can build out the back of your mantel by adding a 2 by 8 board to it. Then you would attach the straps to the 2 by 8 and mount as described above. This allows more of the beam to protrude above your fireplace. The stonework then goes around the mounted mantel. Mounting on Brick or Drywall Mounting Mantels Brick or DrywallThe back of your beam should be notched out to fit on a 2 by 4. Your mantel can be ordered this way, if it has not been notched out already. Locate on your wall, where you want your mantel to rest and mount a 2 by 4 on the wall. The entire weight of the beam will be on the 2 by 4, so be sure that it is well secured. Place your mantel on the 2 by 4 and screw from the top of your mantel down into the 2 by 4. We suggest using 3 to 4 screws from the top and 2 screws from the bottom up. For brick or any masonry use mason screws plus construction glue to mount the 2 by 4 on the wall. ======================= Choose Us to Install Your Fireplace Mantel Some of our favorite projects are laying decorative trim and molding. Five Star Painting can install pre-fabricated moldings like you find at Home Depot or Lowe’s or create custom trim specifically for you and your home. No matter what styles or tastes you have, we can help you achieve the look you want for your home.

A rustic fireplace mantel design can transform a living room. A fireplace mantel, whether you choose to have an entire surround or just the shelf mantel, could be just what the interior designer ordered for a dull living room. Here you can find custom hand carved fireplace mantel designs. These beautiful pieces are all hand carved from the best quality wood, and are beautifully crafted to fit your custom home decorating needs. Let Wooden Accents create the perfect fireplace mantel design for you. ============================ HAND-CARVED MANTEL WITH HAND-FORGED FIREPLACE SCREEN The client I built this hand-carved solid walnut mantel for wanted a very free-form, sculptural design, a centerpiece for their living room invoking nature, the forest. As with all projects, I hand select all the wood for color, grain, and quality for carving. After the client approves the scale drawing, I enlarge the drawing to full scale, making any design adjustments that didn't show on the scale drawing. The construction details and techniques are also planned during this stage. I do all my drawings by hand, because as you can see, you would never get this elaborate or creative design from a CAD system. The mantel is constructed paying close attention to matching the grain. Then the real fun begins. First I roughly shape the piece, and then step by step refine the details until I am happy with everything. Then I start sanding, to refine the carving, smoothing it out so that it feels almost fluid to the touch. The client also wanted a non-toxic finish so I used a hand-rubbed oil finish. It really brought out the beauty of the wood. The full scale drawing of the iron work was done at the same time as the carved mantel but the pattern needed to be transferred to a piece of plywood because I am working with red-hot iron. As the pieces are completed they need to be fit and matched to the pattern, and a paper pattern would burn from the heat. You can see the scorched wood on my pattern in the video below. Here I am forging the leaves.
