Tool
Will it fit?
Measure your existing fireplace opening or timber-framed cavity, enter the sizes, and see which insert and inbuilt fires fit, with how much room to spare.
How it works
- Brick or masonry fireplace: an insert slides into the old opening and a new flue liner runs up the chimney. Each fire needs a minimum opening, and its fascia (front frame) covers openings up to a maximum size. Bigger than that needs a trim or new surround.
- Timber-framed cavity: most wood fires need a zero-clearance box or cabinet inside the framing, which is already counted in the sizes here. Many gas and electric fires frame in directly.
- Nearly: fires up to 100 mm too big on a side are shown too. Sometimes a little building work makes them fit.
Every size comes from the maker’s installation documents, linked on each result. It’s a first check: we confirm the flue route, hearth and clearances on our free site check.

Common questions
How do I measure my fireplace opening?
Measure the width across the front, the height to the lintel, and the depth from the front of the opening to the back wall, each at the narrowest point.
Can a wood burner go in a timber-framed wall?
Yes, with a zero-clearance box or cabinet made for that fire, or a fire designed for zero clearance. The box sets the size of cavity you need.
