Sliding door system
To make it easy to make the fire or to add more wood, the glass door of the Ultime D can be slid upwards. This is simple and easy thanks to the balanced door system and the handle supplied. The smart frameless finish to this door system ensures a handsome aesthetic finish that fits seamlessly into sleek interiors.
Easy-clean door system
Two and three-sided Ultime D models are equipped with a retractable door system so that it is easily accessed for cleaning.
The glass can also by fully raised for easy lighting or loading of wood.
Front and double-sided models have a door system that allows the user to tilt the glass forward so that it is easily accessible for cleaning. The glass can also be completely lifted up for easy lighting or loading of wood.
Spark screen
As an option, the Ultime D can be fitted with a spark guard. Via the folded edge, the spark guard can be easily moved up and down by hand. The purpose of the spark guard is to prevent embers and glowing particles from landing on the floor. Makes sure small children and animals are kept away from the glass or fire. Available in Black, Maple gold or Terracotta.
Enhance the safety and elegance of your three-sided or two-sided Ultime D fireplace with the option to add a spark guard. Protect your surroundings while enjoying the mesmerizing view of the flames. Make your Ultime D fireplace even more captivating with this practical accessory. Available in Black, Maple gold or Terracotta.
Combustion air supply
The fresh air supply can be adjusted using the supplied handle. Maximum air supply for combustion is achieved when the slidable handle is moved completely to the right.
It is best to slide the lever completely to the right when lighting the fire. Once the kindling wood is nicely ignited after 10 to 15 minutes, the air regulator can be put back in the middle position.
If the handle is in the middle position, the fireplace burns at nominal heat output. In this position, the combustion and efficiency are best when the chimney is drawing at minimum 12 Pascal.
Moving the handle further to the left reduces the air supply and this decreases the output of the fireplace. When you slide the handle further to the left from the middle position, this reduces the air supply in the fireplace. Once the air supply is in the fully left position, the fire in the fireplace will be extinguished.
Enhanced heating options
The possibility of choosing between a ceramic heating bottom and a 10mm steel bottom with a grate and ash pan is available for specific types of fireplaces, namely the 2-sided, 3-sided, and double-sided Ultime D fireplaces. These fireplaces offer the flexibility to select the type of heating bottom that best suits your needs.
The ceramic material used as the heating bottom is renowned for its exceptional thermal properties. This option is perfect for heat retention and a consistent, extended heating experience. Moreover, the ceramic is an organic material, emphasizing its natural appeal.
On the other hand, the 20mm steel bottom, complete with a cast iron grate and ash pan, offers a distinct set of advantages. The minimalistic steel construction provides durability and strength, ensuring it can withstand high temperatures and the rigors of daily use like the ceramic bottom. The grate and ash pan are thoughtfully designed to facilitate convenient ash removal. This option is ideal for those who favor a more minimalistic fireplace setup combined with effortless maintenance and cleaning.
Custom convection slots for enhanced fireplace efficiency
Upgrade your fireplace with a convection slot—designed to improve heat distribution and energy efficiency by circulating warm air evenly throughout your space. This innovative feature enhances comfort, reduces heating costs, and ensures a safer, more effective fireplace experience.
Our convection slots are available in three stunning colors Black, Terracotta or Maple Gold and can be customized to your exact measurements, ensuring a perfect fit for any fireplace design. Whether for new installations or retrofits, this solution combines functionality with style.
Flue Pipe Reducer
Metalfire offers the solution for seamlessly adjusting your flue pipe from Ø250mm to Ø200mm. This optional accessory allows you to achieve a perfect fit for your unique installation requirements. Ensure your system is tailored to your needs with this versatile addition.
Positioning the appliance
The fireplace is equipped with 4 adjustable support feet.
The height of the support feet can be adjusted both inside and outside the fireplace.
If the highest position of the support feet is not sufficient, a supporting structure must be built on which the fireplace can be placed. This must be sufficiently solid and stable to support the weight of the stove
Responsible wood burning
Wood heating can only be economical, healthy and ecological if it is used in the right conditions! Choice of equipment, choice of wood, feeding the stove, maintenance... With these conditions you can reduce the emission of fine particles and other air pollutants, but also increase the efficiency of your combustion. The objective is this: Increasing combustion efficiency Reducing emissions of fine particles and other air pollutants Improve end-user comfort. To this end, a video is available today that explains all this step by step.
Fuel: Wood
To obtain optimal combustion, the moisture content of the wood should be no more than 15% If this is not the case, the glass will quickly become soiled and appliance will be less efficient. To achieve this moisture content, the wood must be dried for two to three years in a dry well-ventilated place. The most suitable wood types are beech, oak and birch.
Each of our fireplaces has an optimal wood load: for the Ultime D 600 and 800 models this is a maximum of four 25 cm logs with a total weight of 3.2kg. For the Ultime D 1050 and 1300 models the ideal load is a maximum of three 30 cm logs with a total weight of 3.5kg. The use of resinous wood types, chipboard, laminate, treated wood or accelerants is strongly discouraged, as it produces sparks and a short burning time. It also harms your fireplace and the environment.

Interior finishing
Original | Triangle | Round
Within Metalfire’s range of interior finishes, the cast iron lamellae Original, Triangle, and Round stand out for their refined aesthetics. Each version reflects a unique interpretation of minimalist design. Original features vertical ribs in a clean, classic rhythm. Triangle, with its angular profile, adds a graphic dimension to the flame effect. Round, designed in collaboration with Belgian architect Benoit Viaene, contrasts with soft, rounded forms that create a harmonious interplay with the flames.
What unites these options is their rhythmic linear design, each offering architectural added value — even when the fireplace is not in use. These cast iron interiors serve as true design elements within any interior concept.
All finishes are available within the Ultime D range and can be perfectly matched to the overall fireplace concept.
The common denominator is the elegant rhythm in both surfaces, which creates an interesting dialogue with the warm light of the fire.
Interior finishing colours
Black | Terracotta
Though the Standard 'Black' lacquer already offers the most beautiful timeless base for any fireplace, Metalfire add a new color to their cast iron finishes for closed wood-fires.
As the name predicts, 'Terracotta' is a vivid orange-red lacquer, reminiscent of typical Mediterranean sceneries. A constant reminder of the sunniest of settings and a welcome pop of color during darker days. Whenever, wherever, 'Terracotta' oozes pure warmth and abundance.
The extensive colour selection is also available for finishing frames and customisation concepts, providing even more options to adapt the design to personal tastes.
