Hi Flame Cast Iron Clean Out Door 8 by 8 Inch

This is a real stove door that can be even used as a primary door for loading wood (if you build brick stoves like I do) or used for a cleanout. I have bought several stove doors that were used in the USSR and this one is similar which is high praise. All iron doors will rust if they get even a tiny bit wet. It's installed by mortaring between the stove door frame, which sits on the brick, and the brick or cinder block itself. Fill 1/4 inch space between with clay, sand, and concrete mix, or high temp refractory mix or caulk.

I purchased two, using them as doors for feeding wood and/or charcoal into the the pit. They are the same size width and height as 8x8 cinder blocks.

The product arrived unbroken so that is a step in the right direction. Never know about cast iron products. It is heavy duty. I'm not looking forward to mortaring it in but it is needed. The slight raised bottom edge on the latch could have been more substantial. Should work in replacing the rusted out one.

well built and an easy install

Easy, but dusty install. I installed with some high heat furnace cement to create a seal both on the back lip then around the exterior lip. Then I sunk a couple of tapco screws in to hold it in place. Was worried about a poor seal but it’s doing it’s job very well.
