recommend a fire guard please

[mrsflux]

well we've got a crawler on our hands now and need a fire guard. the controls for our fire are at the bottom of the fire, in the middle. the only fire guards i can find are just a big metal fence thing that would have to be taken off the wall if you want to put the fire off/ on or change the settings.

does anyone know where i can get one that does what i want?

thanks in advance! X

Those fence type ones usually have a liftable area at the top so you can reach the controls. Get one that covers the edges of the hearth, for when crawling moves on to toddling. Attach it to wall or DC will pull it down onto themselves while cruising.

They look awful - but it's only for a year or two!

a liftable area at the top is no good as i'm only short and would never be able to reach down to the bottom to reach the controls
