Is the Double Sided Barrington Fireplace Kit Serves Two Outdoor Living Spaces Right for Your Space?

The Barrington See-Through sits with quiet confidence between adjoining spaces, giving two sides a shared source of warmth and presence without looking contrived. Its proportions echo traditional masonry fireplaces but with a transparency that feels intentional — bridging areas rather than boxing them in. From each vantage the fire reads as a composed, architectural element that anchors conversation and movement.

In everyday use, the see-through design changes how you inhabit the space. Warmth and light travel freely, inviting people to gather on either side without one area feeling secondary. The broad hearth and balanced form encourage relaxed pacing: morning coffee on one side, evening wind-down on the other, each moment held by the steady glow of the fire.

People who choose this version tend to appreciate how naturally it integrates into the flow of their outdoor living. It doesn’t shout for attention or compete with furnishings; it simply becomes the place you return to — a place defined by warmth, permanence, and a sense of calm continuity between the spaces it unites.

Can a DIY Homeowner Really Build One?

Building a masonry fireplace can feel intimidating at first. Most homeowners worry about building skills or missing something. Our planning resources and build guides are designed to remove that uncertainty before you begin. That’s why every kit is backed by clear planning tools, dimensions, and step-by-step guidance—so you can see exactly what’s involved and move forward with confidence, long before you start stacking blocks.

Common Questions About This Kit

Yes. The firebox and chimney system is designed specifically for wood-burning use and adheres to proven masonry fireplace principles when installed per the instructions. Each kit includes a firebrick-lined firebox, a deep hearth, and a stainless-steel spark arrestor to support safe, controlled wood fires.

Yes. The kits are designed for homeowners to assemble using clear instructions, dimensions, and planning resources available before and after purchase.

Outdoor fireplace kits can be installed on patios, slabs, or properly prepared bases. Placement depends on site conditions, clearances, and local codes.

Your fireplace should be installed on a proper footing or an existing patio that can support the weight of a masonry structure.Yes. Like all masonry-style structures, your fireplace requires a stable foundation. Many installations use an existing concrete slab. Many people use a crushed aggregate (paver) base, while others may require a small footing depending on soil conditions and local requirements.

Yes. The modular system allows for layout adjustments and optional components so the fireplace can be tailored to your space and design goals. While most kits feature the same size firebox, we do offer two-sided and compact firebox kits to ensure you get the size fireplace your home needs. Wood storage boxes, chimney extensions and more are available for all our fireplace kits.

When installed properly, these fireplaces are built to last for decades. The masonry construction is designed for long-term outdoor use with minimal maintenance.

For many homeowners, yes. An outdoor fireplace often becomes a long-term focal point for gathering, warmth, and everyday use. Compared to a fire pit, a masonry fireplace provides more directed heat, wind protection, and a more permanent presence within the outdoor living space.
