Holbury 870 Grey Marble – Front-Open Built-In Electric Fireplace Suite

The Holbury 870 in Grey Marble is a distinctive built-in electric fireplace suite that combines a marble-effect frame with British Fires’ award-winning flame technology. Designed as a front-open, one-sided fireplace, it has no front glass, giving you an unobstructed view of the flames and log bed for an effect that feels remarkably authentic.

Front-Open Design

Unlike many other electric fireplaces, the Holbury 870 has a fully open front with no glass between you and the flames. This design makes the Deluxe Real Logs appear closer and more natural, enhancing the ambience and creating the feel of a traditional fire in a contemporary format.

Choose Deluxe or Black Edition

The Holbury is available in two editions:

• Deluxe – Features the stunning Deluxe Real Logs, crafted from genuine British oak, paired with a mirrored rear glass panel to enhance flame depth.
• Black Edition – Combines Deluxe Real Logs with a dark rear glass panel that reduces reflections and sharpens flame visuals.

Deluxe Real Logs – Crafted from British Oak

The Deluxe Real Logs are made from sustainably sourced British oak and hand-finished to highlight the wood’s natural knots, bark, and grain. When paired with British Fires’ advanced flame effect, they deliver one of the most realistic electric fire experiences available.

Installation Information

The Holbury suite is designed for straightforward installation into a prepared wall opening. A secure stud wall or chimney breast is required, as the brackets provided are there to fix the fire in place rather than carry its full weight. The cut-out dimensions must match the appliance size – please refer to the installation manual for precise measurements.

Once the opening is prepared, the fire is slotted into position and secured using the eight fixing points. The unit comes pre-wired with a 1.8 m cable and 13 A plug, making a nearby socket sufficient, though it can also be hardwired by a qualified electrician if preferred. To ensure safe operation, a clearance of around 900 mm should be maintained in front of the fire.
