Product Overview
Touchstone 80048 40-Inch Forte Steel Mesh Screen Non Reflective Recessed Electric Fireplace features a glass-free, matte black, metal mesh screen front for a more traditional style. Combining a classic fireplace size without a reflective glass front, the Forte Steel has the look of a wood-burning fireplace with the ease of an electric fireplace.
The Sideline® Steel Mesh Screen Non Reflective Recessed Electric Fireplace also comes in a 60-Inch size.
All the Features of The Sideline® Series, in a Classic Fireplace Size
Like all Touchstone® electric fireplaces, the Forte Steel gives you the beauty and warmth of a fireplace without the open flame, smell, or cleanup. The Forte Steel Mesh Screen model includes all the features of the top-rated Sideline Electric Fireplace collection, including easy flush mount installation, a built-in heater, and realistic 3-color LED flames.
Realistic Flame, Cool to the Touch Front
The true-to-life flame sets Touchstone electric fireplaces apart from other brands. Customers tell us the flame display looks just like a gas-burning fireplace. Energy-efficient LED bulbs power the flame and deliver the same relaxing effect of real flames, without the smell or mess.
The metal screen front remains cool to the touch, for added peace of mind when using the fireplace around children or pets.
Control the flame intensity and colors by remote control or touchpad. The Forte Steel has 5 flame intensity settings from soft ember to full fire blaze and 3 flame colors: orange, blue, and orange/blue combo.
Built-In Heater, All-Season Use
No chimney, venting, or gas line is needed, the Forte Steel Mesh Screen Electric Fireplace adds coziness to your room with the push of a button. The heat and flame controls work independently so you can enjoy the flames in any season or climate, with the heater turned on or off.
The built-in 5100 BTU heater adds supplemental heat to a room up to 400 square feet. The heater has two heat settings (high and low).
Includes Both Faux Log and Glass Crystals - Exclusive to All Touchstone Sideline™Fireplaces
All Sideline™ Fireplaces ship with both glass crystals and a faux log set, so you can choose the style that is right for you. For a modern feel, use the crystals; for a traditional look, use the faux log.
Mounting and Installation
Designed to be inserted in a fireplace accent wall or mantel, the Forte Steel's heat vents are located on the top front of the unit. You can also hang the 5 1/2-inch deep Forte Steel directly on the wall, and add a surround if desired. Mounting is available on the back or sides of the unit.
Simple, easy-to-follow installation and mounting instructions are included.
Recommended Distance From Mounted TV
We recommend placing your Forte Steel at least 8" below your ceiling or 8" below your mounted flatscreen television for safe clearance from the heater.

Let customers speak for us
Looks as good as real can get and gives off more heat than I expected being that I’m used to a real wood fire. Store very helpful answering questions and good communication. Shipping timely.
I loved my Redstone 30” fireplace..!!!
Excellent service calling in and discussing options for a propane fire pit. The service folks were great to talk to and would answer questions I had thru the process. waiting for it to come in and see the craftsman’s ship they do.
Was delivered much quicker than I expected. Thinking 3-4 days after order. Made everything easy.
Excellent delivery and communication and I am very very pleased with the product which is my new wood stove and I love it.
I worked with Jordan and Joy throughout the sales process, from inquiry to shipment. Both were professional and extremely responsive. Jordan and Joy, thank you for making this a great experience. No doubt our family will enjoy the Gas Fire Pit -Fire Pit Art BV Bella Vita for years to come.
Exceptional service from Jordan.
Royal Fire Pits, Jordan has outstanding customer service skills. He is pleasant, knowledgeable and willing to go the extra mile for a customer. Jordan kept in touch with me through the whole process of a purchase. I could tell he enjoys his job/career and has a great work ethic. If he's not the owner, you better keep an eye on him, he's going places.
Jordan was very helpful on making sure everything would fit correctly concerning making the connection to stove pipe and took up a lot of time answering all my questions.
Highly recommend purchasing from Royal Fire Pits. Great customer service and fast shipping.
Spoke with Jordan great customer service, super nice guy 5 star rating across the board.
I had some issues with my fire pit burner (not royal fire pits fault) and they worked hard to close out on any issues I had until I was completely satisfied. Bottom line is you should buy with confidence here. They have earned my trust.
The purchase of our new Defiant Stove was surprisingly easy; careful attention to my questions, easy credit card transaction and perfect delivery of an extremely well palletized 800 lbs product at a very competitive price!

Online ordering and customer service was great. (Thanks Rachel). The only reason I didnt give five stars is because the delivery company never gave notice of delivery date and time like I was told. I would have liked to have been able to inspect the product (Woodstove) for any shipping damage.
