3 Benefits of Custom Fire Pits vs. Mass-Produced Options
Many people enjoy having fire pits in their outdoor spaces, whether spending time roasting marshmallows with the kids or hanging out with friends on the weekends. Unfortunately, mass-produced fire pits sold at big box stores can leave a lot to be desired in terms of longevity and appearance. If you want to enjoy a wood-burning fire pit without having to worry about replacing it every year or two, you may consider a custom metal fire pit crafted by the Koi Lagoon.
Our metal fabrication shop has created many different types of fire pits, from simple rectangular versions to complex designs with custom themes to fit our customers’ preferences. If you want to discuss a custom fire pit project with our metal fabricators, give us a call at (970) 484-9162. You can also reach us via email, through our online contact form, or in person at 2000 E Lincoln Ave. in Fort Collins, CO.
3 Advantages of a Custom Fire Pit by the Koi Lagoon
1. Durability: Enjoy Backyard Fires for Years to Come
Among the Koi Lagoon team, our customers, friends, and family members all seem to have the same primary complaint when it comes to their mass-produced outdoor fire pits: they don’t last. After a year or two, the bottoms often become burned or rusted through. This can cause a lot of frustration, especially if the rest of the pit is still in good shape.
At the Koi Lagoon, we’ve seen many fire pits with rusted or burned out holes. In fact, we created a custom fire pit insert (pictured to the left) to fit inside an existing metal fire pit for a customer who liked the pit design and didn’t want to replace the entire thing.
So, why are our fire pits different from these mass-produced options? Our metal fabricators use thicker-gauge metal to craft our fire pits compared to the ones you’ll find at big box stores, and we take the time to ensure our pits are welded properly.
2. Long-Term Cost: Say Goodbye to Replacing Your Pit Every Season
Our fire pits for sale may cost more than the bargain pits you’ll find at big chain stores, but you may save money in the long run. Our custom fire pits last for years and years, even if left outside through harsh rain and snow. They won’t rust through or burn through after only one or two seasons of use.
3. Customization: Create the Perfect Pit for Your Space
In addition to the durability and long-term cost savings, a custom wood-burning fire pit made by our team provides tons of customization options. We create fire pits in all shapes and sizes, including rectangular, round, geodesic, and more. Our CNC plasma table allows us to create a wide variety of designs and themes, and we have many different finishes available, including paint, patina, and powder-coat, so each pit matches the client’s vision.
Whether you want to design a fire pit to fit your current backyard theme or commemorate a special date or event, we can create a custom fire pit to suit your needs.
