Our mantels come in standard lengths of 45, 50”, 60", 66” ,72" and 82" with three depth/height options, 9"deep by 5" tall , 7" deep by 6" tall and, 5” deep by 5” tall.
Our Mantels are constructed the same way our Best-Selling floating shelves are. They are built hollow to resemble solid beams with mitered edges leaving no visible end grains on any side. Meaning the wood pattern wraps around the edges giving it a seamless look. Being hollow, they are lighter weight than solid beams and can be easily hung using our wooden hanging brackets and provided screws to drywall where studs are located or other surfaces i.e.: brick and tile using the appropriate anchors.
Our mantels are the perfect focal point for your living room above your fireplace or can also be used as a large floating shelf anywhere throughout your home.
We offer two different styles of Made to order Fireplace Mantels; Modern Rustic and Contemporary Rustic. Both styles are made from NEW wood, not reclaimed. Their characteristics give them the rustic look without the worry of old wood. Below you can read the descriptions of each style.
Contemporary Rustic: These Mantels are made using Rustic Alder. They have knots, cracks and other rustic characteristics with a beautiful wood grain that pops once stained. They have a smoother touch when finished and a sleeker contemporary look.
Modern Rustic: These Mantels are made from Rustic Circle Sawn Alder. They are slightly more rustic than our contemporary mantels. The wood has uniform saw marks, knots, cracks and other great characteristics which are accentuated by the stain you choose.
Both Mantels are coated with two layers of pro-grade lacquer for durability and protection. Both will have a smooth feel, though the Modern Rustic will have a bit more texture due to the saw marks in the wood. The Modern Rustic will also take on the stain slightly darker than the Contemporary Rustic due to the more rustic texture.
PLEASE READ BEFORE ORDERING!
*Each mantel is made to order and will vary in wood characteristics and color. Meaning some shelves will have more knots and cracks than others. Each piece of wood takes stain colors differently, we do our best to capture the best representations of the colors in our photos but please keep in mind that different variables such as wood characteristics, phone and computer monitors could make the color appear slightly different from what is photographed.
*We do not accept returns, exchanges or cancellations on our mantels.
***Received your item damaged and be sure to notify us within 3 days of arrival for replacement or repair options.***
We're happy to answer any questions you have before purchasing.
Unsure about Color? We know it's sometimes hard to tell from online photos. We offer a listing for wood color samples which can help guide you in your color decision. Please keep in mind even if you order samples there may be variation in color from the item that you receive. The piece of wood that you receive is not from the specific piece of wood used on the item you may be ordering. Some pieces of wood take stain darker or lighter. This is not something that we can control and we are not able to pick out pieces of wood to ensure they turn out a specific shade of stain. We do not take returns or exchanges if you do not like the color.

A wooden mounting bracket and lag bolts are provided as well as detailed mounting instructions. The lag bolts we provide are for hanging into drywall where basic wall studs are located. If you’ll be mounting to any sort of tile or brick, you’ll need a masonry specific drill bit as well as masonry specific screws and anchors. You can easily find these at your local hardware store.
