LIMITED WARRANTY FOR NECESSORIES KITS
If you purchased a Necessories Kit and installed it

Necessories Kit is free from defects in materials
for a period of one year from the date we
shipped the kit to the original purchaser. If
Rockwood is given Prompt Notice, as defined in

consist of shipping the replacement component
to your home or business. You are responsible
for installing the replacement component. Kit
components specifically addressed in the
following paragraph also are subject to this
limited one-year warranty against defects in
materials. In some cases we may not be able to
offer an identical replacement component. In
these cases, we will supply a component of
similar design and function. Natural components
such as stone, block or brick may vary in color
and texture and we cannot guarantee the
replacement will match the color and texture of
your original component.

Assembly Instructions

eave these instructions with property owner.

enough sand and gravel fill to bury block and 1" of the steel ring insert.

Getting Started
Zoning nd Permits: Before you plan
your project, learn about the necessary
zoning requirements and rules for
excavating and building restrictions in
your area. No matter how small your
project, be sure you obtain the necessary
permits before you start construction.
Know Wh t’s Below: Whether you are
planning to do it yourself or hire a
professional, smart digging means calling
811 before each job. Homeowners often
make risky assumptions about whether
or not they should get their utility lines
marked, but every digging job requires a
call – even small projects like planting
trees and shrubs.
B se Prep r tion: Fire rings can be built
on an existing concrete slab or paver
base without additional preparation.
To build in the ground, follow these
steps:
1) To build your fire ring on the ground,
mark a 52" dia. circle and remove all
earthen material to a depth of
approximately 3". Be sure excavated
circle is level.
2) Add 1.5" to 2" inches of compactible
gravel, level it evenly. Compact the gravel
with a hand tamper until it is firmly and
uniformly compacted and level.
3) Use a thin layer of sand if needed to
adjust for level.
