A fireplace mantle is often the centerpiece of a living room, and it deserves more than a stock shelf from a home improvement store. Double LL Woodworking builds custom fireplace mantles from solid hardwood, live-edge slabs, and reclaimed timber for homeowners throughout San Antonio.
Custom Mantles
Mantles in San Antonio, Texas
Our mantles are built to complement your fireplace surround and the architectural style of your home. Whether you want a clean, modern floating beam, a rustic hand-hewn timber, or an elegant traditional mantle with carved details, we design and build to your specifications.
Live-edge mantles are especially popular with San Antonio homeowners. We source thick hardwood slabs with natural bark edges, flatten and finish them in our shop, and install them over your fireplace with concealed heavy-duty mounting hardware.
Every mantle is finished to withstand the heat proximity of a fireplace. We use heat-resistant lacquer and sealant systems that protect the wood from warping, discoloration, and drying out over time.

Frequently Asked
Can you install a mantle on a stone or brick fireplace in San Antonio?
Yes. We use heavy-duty masonry anchors and concealed steel brackets to mount mantles securely on stone, brick, and concrete surrounds. The mounting hardware is completely hidden.
What wood species work best for fireplace mantles?
White oak, walnut, and reclaimed barn wood are our most popular mantle materials. For live-edge mantles, we source thick slabs of pecan, mesquite, or walnut with natural bark edges.
How far should a mantle be from the firebox?
Building codes typically require a minimum clearance of 6 inches above the firebox opening, increasing with projection depth. We verify local San Antonio code requirements and ensure every installation is compliant.
