The GG-1242 is precisely engineered to frame the perimeter of massive 12" x 42" Crystal Fire® Plus linear burners. The unit consists of four heavy-gauge sheets of premium tempered glass connected at the corners with high-sheen hardware. Spanning a robust 44.5 inches in length and standing roughly 6 inches high, its broad glass walls form an elegant architectural perimeter that actively reflects the long, dancing central flame ribbon, multiplying the visual impact of your fire feature at night.
Key Features
-
Heavy-Duty 1/4-Inch Tempered Glass: Constructed from premium, impact-resistant tempered crystal panes designed to easily endure sustained direct flame contact and thermal shock without clouding, weakening, or fracturing.
-
Elongated Flame Stabilization: By intercepting aggressive crosswinds, the 6-inch vertical glass barrier keeps the long 42-inch flame path tightly centered. This minimizes fuel waste, maximizes uniform heat reflection out toward your guests, and prevents the flame from shifting unevenly.
-
Polished Corner Assembly Hardware: The four massive glass panels are clamped rigidly in place using heavy-duty, rust-proof polished aluminum compression brackets held together with marine-grade stainless steel fasteners.
-
Non-Slip Rubber Base Bumpers: The bottom corner brackets feature heat-resistant rubber base stops. This creates a high-friction grip against your fire pit’s surface, preventing the guard from sliding or vibrating during heavy patio storms.
-
Essential Protective Barrier: Offers immediate, reassuring protection that keeps dry blowing leaves, drifting napkins, loose clothing, pets, and children’s hands at a safe distance from the active burner hub.

Installation & Handling Safety
-
Drop-In No-Drill Design: Setting up the wind guard requires zero drilling or permanent alterations to your fire table top. The rubber-padded bottom corners are perfectly spaced to sit flush around the outer lip of your stainless steel burner pan, making it simple to lift the entire unit off for quick table cleaning.
-
Safe To Light Instantly: Because the GG-1242 is a fixed, permanently open-topped box, it is entirely safe to strike your electronic spark button or ignite your line with the wind guard resting in place. Unlike a closed folding lid, gas cannot pool dangerously beneath it, eliminating any risk of a delayed ignition burst during start-up.
-
Low-Maintenance Care: Because the glass surfaces are highly polished, soot and smoky film wipe away easily. It can be cleaned using standard household glass cleaner or by wiping down the panels with a microfiber cloth and warm, soapy water.
