CABINET DOOR INSTALLATION
Brushed brass glass doors have been provided with this firebox. A set
includes the front glass panel assembly. They come in different
styles, check with your local distributor for availability and options.
To install doors and front panel, simply insert top door pin(s) up into
hole(s) on top frame, and insert bottom pin (D) into hole (S) on
bottom frame until door is fully seated.
No alignments or adjustments are necessary (see Figure 29).
FIREBOX FACING
Any noncombustible material may be used for facing (glass, title,
brick, etc.) as long as the proper clearances are adhered to (refer to
section on clearances) and the firebox opening are not blocked or
obstructed in any way (see Figure 30).

Use only heat resistant, noncombustible mortar or adhesive when
securing facing material to the front of the firebox.
When placing facing at the upper edge of the effective opening of the
firebox, provide an "L" shaped piece of metal extending the full
width of the opening.
Secure with sheet metal screws at a distance high enough from the
edge as to not interfere with the operation of doors. This assures that
the facing material, in time, should not block the opening if it were
to lose cohesion.
FLASHING MANTELS
Mantels, combustible or noncombustible, may be constructed (see
Figure 31), as long as the proper clearances are observed (refer to
page 4 for clearance).
