Where to buy fireguard

egan2020

Where is the best place to buy one of those fireguards that surrounds the whole fireplace? My nine month old has finally mastered going forward in her walker and automatically makes a beeline for the fire. She reaches out and pulls down the fireguard which is fine when the fire isn't lighting. She's also attempting to crawl and is of course drawn to the fire. I've looked on Argos and they don't seem to do them. Had a look on adverts too but didn't see them. Perhaps they're called something other than "fireguard" and that's not why I'm getting anything on the search function?

Thanka a million. Lord knows what I must have been typing into the search function to get "no results found".:D

it attaches to wall also so your little one cant pull it down on them

We got a really good one in Woodies, maybe something around 40 - 50 euro. Did the job very well, including little hook things that prevent our now 1 year old son from yanking the entire thing over and out of place.....strangely enough I never even needed to fit those when it was just our daughter...go figure....

I saw one in woodies today!

We got ours in Homestore- they only have one type in stock (I imagined they'd have loads) and its not the cheapest- its almost 40 Euro- but it doesn't look like crap, its very effective and while it blocks the fireplace- it doesn't intrude unnaturally into the room like some of the cages you see.

Smyths have them too.. €31.99

Thanks everyone. My nearest town is Clonmel so I'm limited to Argos and Woodies so I'll check them out this week.

check the buy and sell, or adverts.ie, I am sure you will get one second hand, when the kids are growing up they are not needed anymore

if you can afford it then buy one of they play pens that you can use as a fireguard too. It takes up a bit of space but it is way better then a normal fireguard and you can open the gate to get in and out.
