Lexington Hearth Rickhouse: a non combustible mantel with a bourbon warehouse beam look

The Lexington Hearth Rickhouse is a non combustible fireplace mantel that looks like an old beam. Lexington Hearth casts it from a mold of a real old growth timber in its own non combustible mix, then paints each one by hand. The timber is the kind found in Kentucky’s bourbon aging warehouses. The bark edge, old joint notches, deep cracks, knots, saw and tool marks, and end grain come through. Its rough timber look suits a rustic room. The shelf is 7.5 inches deep and 7.5 inches tall.

It is non combustible, which means the material itself will not burn, so it can usually sit closer to the fireplace than a wood mantel. Your fireplace manual and local code set the exact distance above the firebox. It comes with a steel mounting bracket, the screws, and a touch up kit for the screw holes. The bracket screws into the wall studs, the mantel slides over it, and it takes two people to hang. On the page you pick the length, 60 or 72 inches, and then one of five hand painted colors. Custom colors and lengths are available on request, so ask us if your wall needs a different size. Because every piece is cast and painted by hand, expect small differences in color and size from the photos. Prefer a plainer barn timber look? See the Lexington Hearth Tobacco Barn mantel. The Lexington Hearth Rickhouse ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ

What makes the Rickhouse different from the Tobacco Barn?

Both are molded from 7.5 in. by 7.5 in. Kentucky timbers, but the Rickhouse comes from an old-growth beam like those in bourbon aging warehouses, so its casting adds bark-edge waning and mortise and tenon joinery on top of the deep checking, knots, saw marks, and tooling marks. Compare the two side by side in our Lexington Hearth non-combustible mantel collection.

How heavy is the Rickhouse mantel?

The page lists 106 lbs for the 60 in. length and 141 lbs for the 72 in. length, which makes it one of the heavier Lexington Hearth mantels. The installation guide requires two people for handling and calls for the bracket to land on three studs at 60 in. and four at 72 in., with each screw sunk at least 1.5 in. into the stud.

Is it non-combustible?

Yes. The Rickhouse is cast in Burncrete and certified non-combustible under ASTM E136, the vertical tube furnace test at 750 degrees Celsius. The mantel itself will not ignite, but placement above a fireplace still has to satisfy the fireplace manufacturer’s clearances and local code; the installation guide’s general guideline is 6 in. minimum under 50,000 BTU and 12 in. at or above.

What is included with the mantel?

The mantel, a steel mounting bracket, pan-head screws for the bracket, self-drilling screws for the top of the mantel, and a touch-up kit with filler putty, matching paint, and a brush. You supply the tools listed in the guide: stud finder, level, tape measure, a drill with a 1/8 in. bit, and an impact driver. Only size and color are chosen on this page.

Which colors are offered?

Maduro, Roasted Chestnut, Pale Honey, Eclipse, and Weathered Grey, all hand-painted. Choose the length first and the color options for that length appear. Every mantel is individually cast and painted, so expect small variations in color, weight, and final dimensions from the sample images. Custom colors and custom lengths are available on request.

Can I install it on a brick or stone chimney breast?

The included instructions cover wood-framed walls only. For masonry, the guide tells you to consult your fastener supplier for anchors that support four times the mantel’s load, and for any other wall type to consult a professional. With 106 to 141 lbs hanging on the bracket, the anchoring plan matters; the linked warranty excludes failures caused by unsuitable anchoring foundations.
