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 chose to purchase a multi-fuel burner from Cast Fireplaces due to the extra service they promised regarding delivery. Some sites offered the same model with free delivery (slightly cheaper) but only a curb side service and little option about delivery window, which did not suit my needs. The service from Cast Fireplaces did not disappoint. From the time of ordering the stove, through to delivery, the communication was excellent. The gentleman who delivered it was friendly and professional, kept me updated regarding delivery timings and safely delivered it directly into the property. I unfortunately experienced an issue with the stove handle not operating correctly, however, Mark was very helpful in ensuring that this matter was resolved, despite the manufacturer not offering a satisfactory solution. Putting aside that initial setback, I am very happy with the stove and would definitely recommend Cast Fireplaces and their team.
Response from the owner:Hi Frances, Thanks for your review we do have a very specialist delivery service with 1 hour timed delivery slot. I am very pleased you found everything ran smoothly and the service was as promised. Thanks again for purchasing from Castfireplaces we really appreciate it.

Visited the showroom which had an array of choice. Found exactly what I’d been looking for. Mark was really helpful and answered my questions. I went away to check the measurements and my chimney and I then ordered online. The fireplace was dispatched shortly afterwards. Due to being further away, I had a local fitter install. The fireplace looks stunning and has exceeded all expectations. Thanks again and I hope Dave gets a treat 🐾🔥❤️ x

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.
