Is it right for you?
Who the British Fires Knightwood Electric Fire suits best
The Knightwood is unlike anything else we fit: a portrait fire more than one and a half metres tall, with a camp-fire style stack of Deluxe Real Logs climbing the glass. It is for the double-height hallway, the stairwell wall, the tall narrow chimney breast, anywhere the drama runs vertical instead of horizontal.
From the survey
Installation notes for the British Fires Knightwood Electric Fire
A portrait fire changes the build: the recess runs tall at 1529mm by 1159mm, so wall structure, fixing height and the concealed spur position are all planned against the British Fires dimension diagram before anything is cut. It rewards being designed into a renovation early, and we coordinate with your builder where there is one.
An honest steer
How it compares with similar models
There is no like-for-like alternative in our range: every other large fire is landscape. If the wall is wide, the New Forest range serves it better; if the wall is tall, the Knightwood is the only fire that honours it. That clarity makes the choice unusually easy.
Fitting it locally
Fitting the British Fires Knightwood Electric Fire in Yorkshire homes
The tall spaces of the corridor are its habitat: double-height halls in barn conversions, stairwells in townhouses, and the vertical chimney breasts of older buildings where a landscape fire would sit like a letterbox.

Common questions
British Fires Knightwood Electric Fire FAQs
How tall is the Knightwood fire?
The unit stands 1529mm tall by 1159mm wide, a genuine portrait-format fire with the log stack climbing the glass like a camp fire.
Where does a portrait fire work best?
Tall spaces: double-height halls, stairwell walls and vertical chimney breasts. On a normal-height wall a landscape fire from the New Forest range almost always suits better, and we will say so.
Is the Knightwood hard to install?
It is a planned build rather than a slot-in: tall recess, structural fixing and a concealed spur, set out against the manufacturer dimension diagram. Designed in early, it goes in cleanly.
Does the Knightwood heat the space?
It carries a 1.5kW heater, which warms the area around it; in the double-height spaces it suits, treat it as a glowing focal point rather than the heating plan.
