Geocast Beams

A fireplace beam simply designed to sit above the opening of a fireplace chamber.
Leafing through a country magazine, you have seen this look numerous times, and you require a rustic look, but have been advised by your stove fitter that this cannot be done due to distance to combustibles.
Stop right there, we have the answer for you and your fireplace.

We sell a range of Non Combustible Geocast “Fake Wood” beams these are designed to fit closer to your stove.

I received really great, personal-feeling customer service from Cast Fireplaces and would definitely recommend them. I had quite a random query and only a small order but Mark Adams and his colleague went to quite some lengths to sort everything out for me. I was so grateful for their expertise and time.
Response from the owner:Thanks Bethany, I'm glad you found our time and expertise helpful and thank you very much for ordering with us.

I went with Cast Fireplaces as they had better dimensions and sizing information than most of the other sites I saw. I ordered an insert and surround as a purely aesthetic fireplace. Worked great. really happy with the quality. And is a welcome upgrade from the cheap all in one firepalce that was there before.

Very happy with the Brompton cast iron electric fireplace which has transformed my space. Customer service was excellent, from initial questions a long time before purchase to advice on delivery about how best to unpack the surround components to avoid damage. Many thanks!

Geo Cast beams and distance to combustibles

Designed to reduce the distance of combustibles to 250mm, these concrete beams look like wood and offer a solution to the distance to combustibles law which is stopping you from having a real oak beam above your fireplace.

Geocast beams can be installed closer to stoves than solid oak beams due to the non-combustible material they are made from.

The appearance of the Geocast beams is very realistic and available in quite a few different finishes.

New to the range are the Heritage and Rustic ranges along with the all-new and improved grey beams that are on display in our Heanor showroom, so come along to have a look.

Real oak beams

For those of you who are lucky enough to be able to have a real Oak Beam, we have our solid oak beams constructed from French air dried oak. They are designed to be fixed straight to the wall as a floating beam and come with a fixing bracket wedge.

Available in our finished colours, they look fantastic.

Custom-made to measure options are available contact our expert staff for any help required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, we have all the geocast beams on display in our showroom. They look so real.

Also on display is the real oak beam and colour swatches too.

We can offer made-to-measure in real wood, but the geocast beams are fixed sizes.

Even if they are non-combustible, they still need to be 250mm away so they do not crack with the heat from your stove.
