Screens for the fire place

When you are replacing the screen for the fireplace you need to choose a sensible material. Do not use something that has glass in it. When glass is over heated it cracks and lets the flames out. Some kinds of screens are built to prevent the embers from flying around. The grill is made with closely knit iron. They are also made out of cast iron in most cases.

Baskets for fire woodBaskets and doors need to have secure handles. Usually fireplace tools are sold as a complete set. Do not compromise on the size of the basket. A bigger basket will ensure that the fire logs are inside the basket while burning and also the ashes are secured deep inside the basket under the firewood. Sturdy andirons will ensure that the logs stay put within it and do not roll of while burning. Fire causes the wooden logs to move or spurt. The andiron should be deep enough to hold the fire wood. Also never over load the andiron or else it will completely beat the purpose.
