Is it right for you?
Who the British Fires New Forest 2400 Inset Electric Fire suits best
The New Forest 2400 is the largest fire we offer: 2375mm of unbroken flame for the kind of wall that can carry it. Double-height spaces, large barn conversions and design-led new builds are its home. This is a fire chosen from the architect drawings, not the showroom shelf, and it rewards that kind of planning.
From the survey
Installation notes for the British Fires New Forest 2400 Inset Electric Fire
At this scale the fire is a construction project detail: a 300mm recess across nearly 2.4 metres, stud design around it, power provisioned early and the making good planned with the wall finishes. We are happy working directly with your builder or architect, which at this size is usually the right way round.
An honest steer
How it compares with similar models
There is nothing else in the range, or honestly in most ranges, at this width: the 1900 is the fallback where the wall turns out slightly smaller than the ambition. At these widths the wall decides, not the budget: an undersized fire on a vast wall disappoints every day.
Fitting it locally
Fitting the British Fires New Forest 2400 Inset Electric Fire in Yorkshire homes
The handful of 2400-scale walls we see on the corridor are in barn conversions and high-spec new builds, and that is exactly where this fire belongs. Electric, so even a two-and-a-half metre fire needs no flue, just planning and power.

Common questions
British Fires New Forest 2400 Inset Electric Fire FAQs
Is the New Forest 2400 the biggest electric fire you fit?
Yes, at 2375mm wide it is the largest model in the British Fires inset range and the widest fire we install. It is designed for large media walls and open-plan statement rooms.
When should the 2400 be planned into a project?
At design stage. The recess, studwork and power all want provisioning before the wall goes up, so the earlier we are involved with your builder or architect, the cleaner the result.
Can the 2400 be viewed from multiple sides?
One, two and three sided formats are available across the larger New Forest models, and at this scale a wrapped format makes a spectacular room divider. The format is fixed at order.
What does a New Forest 2400 installation cost?
The build varies with the wall as much as the appliance does, so the honest answer is a written quote after the free survey, designed around your room or your drawings.
