Pearl Mantels ARYB48612 Premium MDF White Mantel Shelf, 48L x 9D x 5H for Your Home

There’s nothing quite as inviting as a crackling fire in an open fireplace. The flickering flames can elevate your mood and ease away the stress of the day in mere moments. However, to truly embody the essence of a home, a fireplace should offer warmth to our hearts even when it’s not burning. Pearl views the mantel not merely as trim or molding, but as a striking piece of furniture that serves as the emotional centerpiece of the room, representing roots, heritage, and tradition. All around it, furniture is thoughtfully arranged, cherished treasures are displayed, and it contributes to the room's overall balance and stability.

Pearl Mantels showcases furniture quality, stunning details, and classic designs that enhance any decor. It features tasteful, clean lines suited for the modern home, with a generous shelf depth of nine inches that provides ample room for displays. Constructed from Grade A medium density fiberboard (MDF), a material commonly utilized for furniture, cabinetry, shelving, and decorative moldings, the shelf arrives as a single piece. Installation is straightforward thanks to the included mitered hanger board assembly.

Here are the specifications: - Shelf Length: 48 inches - Shelf Depth: 9 inches - Bottom Base Length: 48 inches - Bottom Base Depth: 9 inches - Overall Height: 5 inches - Weight: 23 pounds

Look for the pearl inlay on the right-hand side of the shelf as confirmation that you have purchased an authentic Pearl Mantel. This product is paint grade only, arriving pre-painted and ready for installation.

One of the advantages of Pearl Mantels is its easy install feature—there’s no assembly required. Just take it out of the box and hang it up using our mitered board hanging system, which is included in your purchase. The design includes a hollow back that maintains the appearance of a solid piece of wood while eliminating the heavy weight and challenges typically associated with installation.

However, please note that the mounting hardware for the hanger rail is not included. You will need to purchase the appropriate hardware based on your specific mounting surface. For example, different mounting hardware is necessary for brick compared to drywall.

Furthermore, it's important to be mindful that MDF is classified as a combustible material, meaning that heat clearances must be strictly followed. If you plan to install the mantel over a fireplace, it’s crucial to consult your local building codes and the manufacturer's guidelines for your specific fireplace insert or stove.
