Allow 3"-4" clearance underneath for proper airflow to the fire and 6"-8" behind glass doors. Enter your dimensions into our grate size calculator. For round grates use the inner diameter of the fire pit for all 3 dimensions. You may need more clearance under the grate for airflow depending on how the fire pit is constructed.
