Troubleshooting

Fireguard feels unstable after installation.

Re-check all wall fixings. Ensure screws are tightened securely and that the appropriate wall plugs have been used for your wall type. If unsure, consult a professional for wall mounting.

Guard does not fit fireplace width.

Confirm your fireplace width measurement does not exceed the maximum 133cm. If it is within the limit but the guard appears too large, double-check the installation method and ensure all panels are correctly aligned.

Difficulty aligning guard with wall fixings.

Ensure the wall brackets are installed level and at the correct distance apart according to the manual. Sometimes adjusting the tightness of the brackets slightly can help align the guard.
