Know before you buy
This lid is designed as a universal fit, but it is best suited for fire pits with an opening slightly smaller than 40 inches to ensure full coverage. Measure the diameter of your fire pit's opening to confirm that the lid will sit securely across the rim.
Yes, the lid is constructed from durable steel with a rust-resistant powder coat finish, making it capable of withstanding harsh outdoor elements. However, to extend the life of the finish, we recommend storing it in a dry area during extreme weather conditions.
By placing the lid over an active fire, you effectively cut off the oxygen supply, which safely extinguishes the flames. Always use caution when handling the lid near an active fire, as the steel will become hot.
The lid is crafted from 2mm thick steel, providing enough weight to remain stable in typical outdoor conditions. Its flat-top design helps it sit flush against the fire pit rim, preventing it from shifting easily.
The powder coat finish is low-maintenance and designed to resist rust. Simply wipe it down with a damp cloth to remove dirt or debris, and avoid using abrasive cleaners that could scratch the protective coating.
