Solid Fuel Fire Grates and Baskets












Solid Fuel Fire Baskets
Our range includes high-quality, durable wood and coal fire grates that make it easy to create a real fire in your living room. These products usually sit on a hearth within the base of a masonry chimney or fireplace and are used to lift the fire off the ground in order to draw in more oxygen, which in turn helps the fire burn brighter and produce more heat.
These coal- and wood-burning fire baskets not only improve the performance of your fire but also provide an attractive focal point that complements your home’s style. From classic designs inspired by Georgian, Victorian, and Art Deco styles to sleek contemporary options, our coal and wood fire baskets are available in black, polished, and highlighted finishes to match any décor.
Our solid fuel fire baskets are ideal for inglenook fireplaces and are available with optional solid fuel kits. These include an accompanying ash pan, which sits underneath the grate and makes clean-up and maintenance a breeze.
Once you've found your ideal grate, be sure to shop our fireplace surrounds, including cast-iron fireplaces and cast-iron inserts that are ideal for burning solid fuels like wood or coal. We also have a wide range of chimney products and flue liners. If you haven't decided on a fuel type just yet and want to view more options, browse our fire grates for other fuel types, including bioethanol, gas and electric fire baskets.
