Touchstone Introduces the New Sideline Steel Electric Fireplace

A classic style wall recessed electric fireplace with a matte black frame and screened front.
The Touchstone Sideline Steel Electric Fireplace adds warmth
and classic design to any room with its matte frame, screen
front and realistic looking flames.
Touchstone has added the new 50-inch wide Sideline Steel Electric Fireplace to its full range of recessed electric fireplaces. The Sideline Steel model features a traditional screened front with a matte finish black frame. The steel screen front, paired with the most realistic LED flame display on the market, looks like a wood burning fireplace, without the maintenance.

Easy to Install

The Sideline Steel Electric Fireplace is designed for easy flush mount installation, offering a built-in wall style. The versatile Sideline Steel model can also be hung directly on the wall if desired. The heat vents on the front of the fireplace warm a room up to 400 square feet. The flame display works independently from the heater, so the beautiful flames can be enjoyed year-round with or without heat. Learn more.

The Most Realistic LED Flame Display

With the touch of a remote control, the flame display can be adjusted to five settings from soft glow to a full fire effect. The front display remains cool-to-the-touch, offering ambiance without the risks of a real fire. As a testament to Touchstone’s natural looking electric fireplaces, a customer shares:

"The flames were so realistic that when I had my final fire inspection, it totally fooled the fire inspector who thought it was gas and not electric. So you guys are definitely doing an awesome job when the flame can't be determined to be gas or electric." - H. Jean

Easy to integrate into any design.
The traditional styled Sideline Steel Electric Fireplace joins the Touchstone Sideline Electric Fireplace family. In the same size at 50 inches wide, the more contemporary styled Sideline50 features a glass front display and a glossy black metal frame. Other sizes include the 36-inch wide Sideline36, the 60-inch wide Sideline60 and the 72-inch wide Sideline72.
