Why use a fire pit Safety Screen?
My name is Jim Jarvis. I own and designed our custom made fire pit safety
screens. This is my opinion on why a safety screen is a must. You had a
fire pit built for a reason. You wanted to sit outside with the family and
friends and relax. Sitting around a fire with the family is a great way
to spend time together. And a fire has a magnetic characteristic about it.
Start a fire and it will draw everyone in the area. But without a safety
screen you loose the most important element of this scenario. Relaxing!!
It's not going to happen. You'll be so paranoid that your going to set something
on fire you can't relax. Try it and you'll feel what I'm talking about.
Not to mention it's the responsible thing to do and most likely the local
law wants you to use a screen as well. But I'm serious about the comfort
level you achieve by using a safety screen. Makes it worth every penny.
Not to mention all the clothing your going to burn and the patio furniture
cushions you'll ruin.

Please Note We Do Not Warranty the Paint.
We suggest that when you order then screen ask for an extra can of special
heat resisant paint $15 extra. This is a steel product that your putting
into a fire. It will, not if, need touching up. It may also get a few scratches
during shipping.

Our Fire Pit Safety Screens
We manufacture our screens in a little town west of Fort Worth Texas called Weatherford. Small town atmosphere with small town values. Our goal is to make sure you get the quality you pay for and then some. We pride ourselves on offering free advise any time we can help. Call me anytime and chances are I'll answer and if I can't I'll be sure to return your call. We are very service oriented but it's our quality that will impress you.
Our fire pit safety screens are very heavy duty. A typical 40" screen weights in about 55 pounds. We use the best materials money can buy ( afford) but with in reason. Sure you can always make something better but just how big of a check are you willing to cut? There has to be a happy median. This is our solution after many hours of research and trials.
The screen material is STAINLESS STEEL MESH. We can manufacture a screen out 100% stainless steel. Call me if this interest you. This is the most important element of the safety screen. If we used regular carbon steel it would oxidize over a small period of time and fail. The fire doesn't burn out the screen - the rust eats the screen but by using stainless steel we eliminate that issue. Stainless steel is expensive. At this stage cost isn't as important as what's at stake. No matter what it cost - we use stainless steel mesh.
Then we encased the mesh material in 1/4" x 1" solid steel flat bar. This material is regular carbon steel. We use carbon steel here because this is where the cost of using stainless steel would make the product not economically feasible. It works and it works very well and it makes the product quite a bit more affordable. If you want a screen made entirely out of stainless steel we can do this for you but triple the quote we give you on a carbon steel frame.
The screens will rust.
No matter what finish I use to coat the frame it will burn off and rust and will need touching up. If the rust is an issue for you then we have several options. One, we can make a stand for the screen to sit o. This frame goes in the fire pit so the screen doesn't touch to fire pit. It's freestanding in the fire pit. The other option is we make the screen using 100% stainless steel at an added cost of $400 more. The screen mesh material is stainless steel and the frame is carbon steel. Call if you have any questions. 817.613.0029
We make the screen in four parts. The two back quarters are fixed and are hinged to the two front quarters. The two front quarters are doors that open out independently of one another. We take the hinges apart and re-build them using brass hinge pins. Again we have a rust issue here and brass doesn't rust. The brass pins will insure that the hinges will work after sitting outside for many years.
The screen comes to you via either FEDEX ground or if the screen you are wanting is larger then 48" in diameter then we have to palletize the screen and ship it via a freight company i.e. R and L or FEDEX freight. When you receive the screen in comes in four pieces. There is some minor assembly required. Takes about 5 minutes and requires no tools. Everything slips together and there is one nut that screws on to the bottom side of the top handle. Like I said, the two front pieces are mounted to the two back pieces with hinges. The brass hinge pieces easily slide into the hinges. I say this because when your using your fire pit with the screen in place and the kids want to roast marshmallows you can ( wearing gloves) pull the brass hinge pins and remove the door. This way you can cook with the screen in place (minus one door) and not get marshmallow guts on the screen. And I like my marsh mellows black and it's easier to get black marsh mellows if you can put the marshmallows right in the fire. Trust me it works much better. They get good and nasty and gooey.
When ordering or calculating what size screen you need it's best to have some measurements before calling. I need the inside diameter of the fire pit and the outside diameter and the depth. From these measurements we can calculate the right size diameter of the screen you need and then we'll quote you a price. What we suggest is adding 2" to each side of the inside measurement of the fire pit. An example would be let's say your inside measurement is 36" then add 2" to each side making a total of 40". Take 36" add 4" and this would make the screen 40". But call if you need help.
That's How We Make the Safety Screen. I'll tell you straight up the these screens aren't inexpensive. Think about this for a minute. Look at what your doing with my piece of art, Sorry my screen. Your putting this screen outside, in the elements of rain, blazing sun, snow and extended time and when you want to use this screen your going to put it in a fire. is that abuse or what? and then you want the screen to last many years. see where i'm going? then we make the screen custom to your fire pit.

We'll custom make any size fire pit safety screen you may need but we
also have in stock 3 standard sizes. A 19", 24", and a 30"
model, to view these click
here.
These screens are generally replacement screens for out of the box fire
pits.
They are made in China and are production manufactured. I don't not recommend
these for rock or built in fire pits. They will insult your fire pit. They
weight about 5 pounds. Would you spend ten thousand dollars on custom cabinets
for your home and buy the hardware at the dollar store? But they are better
then nothing.
Square Fire Pit Screens
We custom make square screens as well. Again, we will make a square screen any size you need. As an example of a screen we made for a customer pictures here is 48" square and 14" tall. To see more square fire pit screens click here.
Square screens start at $750. They are very time consuming to make. The square screens have a lot of lines and angles and if they are perfect the screen doesn't look right. To accomplish this it takes time.
Fire Pits Safety Screens with Self Supporting Stands and Rings
We make stands that fit in your fire pit that the screens will sit on. The screen is typically made to rest on top of the ledge of your fire pit but if you want or need a stand to set the screen on we can make these.
The benefit of the stand is that the screen isn't setting on your beautiful rock coping and this will also give you more room on you ledge for beverages, butts and anything else you might want to sit on it. Call for pricing.
The Painted Finish!
Our screens are finished with a heat resistant flat black paint!
We do not warranty the painted finish. We do the best we can finishing the
fire pit screen with a good coat of fire resistant paint but we DO NOT warranty
the finish. Some rust marks may appear at the bottom of the screen. If this
happens just apply some heat resistant paint. Apply it heavy so the paint
flows into cracks. Some rust marks may appear on the surface supporting
the screen. This is going to be natural. Wood burning Fire pits will get
dirty.
Please Note We Do Not Warranty the Paint.
This is a product your putting into a fire. We suggest that when you order then screen ask for an extra can of special heat resistant paint $20 extra. This is a steel product that your putting into a fire. It will, not if, need touching up. It may also get a few scratches during shipping.
