How delivery works

DeliveryHow it works

Because most of our products are huge, it’s difficult for us to keep stock of all of them. For this reason, we deliver a lot of our products directly from our suppliers and manufacturers, to offer you a great price and a fresh braai and a warm fireplace.

PRIORITY DELIVERYWe will make sure you are kept in the loop at every single step of the way and we will have your order processed as a priority. Tracking number included.

FREE DELIVERYLook, it’s free but we are unable to provide an exact time or take specific delivery requests as we are at the mercy of our suppliers. We still do our best to deliver as quickly as possible and in most cases we are much quicker than the stated turn around time.

Mail us for any queries.

THE DOVRE BOLD 400

One air control.
A door that locks as it shuts.

The Bold 400 keeps things simple. One air control sets the fire, and the slam-lock door latches as you close it. Logs up to 35 cm go in, the fire burns on a grate with secondary combustion, and the ash tray takes care of the ash. Connect the flue at the top or the rear, and bring in outside air if your room needs it.

SLOW MORNINGS AT HOME

Light the fire.
Let the day start slowly.

Some winter mornings are made for staying in. Load a few logs, close the door and let the lounge warm up while the little ones build towers on the rug. Coffee in hand, the flames on show and nowhere else you need to be.

The flue pipe, hearth plate, log rack, toys, furniture and décor are not included. Have an independent installer confirm the hearth, flue route and clearances.

BEFORE THE FIRST FIRE

Heat, fire and flue, sorted.

THE HEAT

7 kW nominal, up to 9 kW.

Dovre rates the Bold 400 at 7 kW nominal output, and the South African distributor lists a maximum of 9 kW. The Output Calculator uses 8 kW, the middle of the two, to compare with your room.

THE FIRE

Simple to run, easy to tend.

One air control, a slam-lock door and room for logs up to 35 cm long. The fire burns on a grate with secondary combustion, and an ash tray comes with the stove.

THE CONNECTIONS

Top or rear: you choose.

The 150 mm flue connects at the top or the rear, which helps when you plan around a wall or a chimney. A 100 mm outside-air connection lets the fire take its air from outside.

Plan the stove, hearth and flue together.

These are the stove's own sizes, not a hearth or room size. Dovre asks for 1,300 mm to combustible materials in front, so plan the whole space. Have an independent installer confirm the hearth, flue route and clearances in the manual.

GOOD TO KNOW

Plan your setup.

Read your instruction manual before you plan the installation.

Read the instruction manual

What is included?

The Dovre Bold 400 wood stove in black, with its door and ash tray. It has a fire grate, a single air control, a slam-lock door and an outside-air connection. Flue pipes, other accessories and installation are not included.

Which fuel does it burn?

Wood. The firebox takes logs up to 35 cm long. Burn dry firewood, and ask us before you plan to burn anything else.

How much heat does it give?

Dovre rates the Bold 400 at 7 kW nominal output. The South African distributor lists a maximum of 9 kW. The Output Calculator uses 8 kW, the middle of the two. Insulation, ceiling height and climate change how warm a room feels.

Where does the flue connect?

At the top or the rear, through a 150 mm flue connection. For a rear connection, the centre is 985 mm above the floor. For a top connection, the centre is 190 mm from the back of the stove. Plan the route with an independent installer before you build.

Is the flue included?

No. Flue pipes and other accessories are sold separately, because they depend on your room and roof. Send a photo, your room measurements and roof details for a product and flue configuration quote.

Can it draw air from outside?

Yes. Dovre includes an outside-air connection: a 100 mm collar with its centre 375 mm above the floor. Ask your installer whether your room needs outside air, and plan the duct with the manual.

How much space does it need?

It is a freestanding stove, so it needs no built-in opening. It is 490 mm wide, 415 mm deep and 1,130 mm high, and weighs 145 kg, so check that your floor can carry it. Dovre's minimum distances to combustible materials are 1,300 mm in front, 700 mm at the sides, 350 mm behind and 750 mm above, and 100 mm to non-combustible materials. Your installer applies the full list in the manual, floor included.

How do I control the fire?

With a single air control, so there is one setting to learn. The slam-lock door latches as you close it, and the stove has secondary combustion. Read the manual before the first fire.

How do I clear the ash?

The fire burns on a fire grate, and an ash tray comes with the stove. Let the ash cool fully before you empty it.

Does it come in other colours?

This page sells the Bold 400 in black. Ask us if you are looking for another finish, and we will check what we can offer.

What does the guarantee cover?

The South African distributor gives a limited five-year guarantee on the main stove body. Exclusions and claim conditions apply, so ask us for the full terms.

Can you help with my setup?

Yes. Send a photo and your room measurements for a product and flue configuration quote. We do not install, so arrange installation with an independent installer.
