DIY Shiplap Electric Fireplace Build with Mantel

[@vanchinh1948]

This kzbin.infoUgkxATHBlMJwipGgVWseuAFKvDQ_5R4_lywo unit was an easy install and turned out amazing. The dimensions were exact! I took a chance and built the wall prior to receiving the unit which arrived sooner than expected and it fit right in the space I constructed. The heat output is perfect for the space we needed and made the room exactly how we envisioned it to turn out. I am happy to answer any questions to the best of my ability. Thank you for the awesome product just in time for the holidays.

Glad to see someone with vaulted ceilings and see how they built it and how it turned out. Loved the multiple pieces and slowly building it up. Still not convinced that it’s for me but still enjoyable to watch.

[@EVO8BOOS28]

Yes! Like a 7' by 10' project and material list. awesome look!

[@annetteelder-clark505]

Yay! It looks awesome. You are so blessed to have a husband who is so talented in construction and finish work. And the way the two of you work together makes my heart happy. Kids and the dog wandering around watching hard work, cooperation, and money saving is some of the best teaching/parenting you can do. Bravo. Enjoy your beautiful great room and give your Hubs a great big smooch cause he's wonderful. 🙂

WOW, so beautiful the way the fireplace turned out and the pretty floors! Love it!

[@jrmr6282]

I did one similar to yours. I stopped a few feet from the ceil and was able to put a shelf on top with Lanters on top. Since I rented, I made it removable. It came apart in two pieces and yes it was heavy. I have moved it to three homes now. The one thing I would do differently is to use that empty space behind the tv and fireplace. You can put shelves for books or make a cabinet door. I like the clean look so when I redo mine, I am going to hide the doors.

If you want easy distressed boards, get railroad ties and cut them to the size you need. Saves a ton of work and they are only like $20 each for a 6x6.

[@sadonnasmith9087]

Most of these videos have the electric fireplace over the stone/brick. Is there a reason you cut the brick around it? I’m trying to decide what to do but I’m afraid if we cut the stone around it that we won’t ever be able to get the fireplace out if we need to.

It’s super beautiful! One thing I don’t get to see in any DIY videos is how you access the outlet to connect and disconnect the tv, and how do you pass the tv cord into the back so that you don’t see it?? Maybe it’s super easy I just don’t get it yet 😆

How did you guys put the sides on the front? What is securing this to the wall? I think I saw him drive nails into the bottom to the subfloor, right? Sorry for all the questions. I’ve watched this video 100+ times and am in the middle of my project but not sure how to assy the sides to the front.

[@mcummings7]

Hi! I love the build actually replicating it myself (with some changes). I have a question around the frame of the fire place. It looks like he added 4 smaller 2x4 between the frame and "stud" was that just because of spacing it was that extra structure needed?
