A wider Wilderness log fire for a longer wall.
Quick Facts
- Heating Capacity: 800–1,600 sq ft
- Viewing Area: 50 5/16" wide
- Fuel: Natural gas or propane.
- Controls: Remote with thermostat included; wall switch and phone app available.
Who It's For
On a wall longer than a typical living room's, a 44-inch log fire can look short. You need more length without changing the look. If you want about 50 inches of Wilderness log fire in standard or tall glass, the Wilderness Front Facing 51 is the next size.
What Makes It Special
The 51 spreads driftwood, valley oak, or birch logs across a 50 5/16-inch opening, with glass 15 3/4 or 21 5/8 inches tall.
The face is frameless, so tile or stone runs right to the edge of the fire, and Ortal's passive cool wall design leaves room for a TV or artwork right above it. On Ortal's gas input, our estimate is approximately 800 to 1,600 square feet of warmth.
The heat barrier is your call: a fine mesh screen that keeps hands off the hot glass, or a double-glass front cooled by fans between the panes. With the screen version and no lights, it can run on batteries, which means it still lights during an outage. Set a temperature on the included remote and it holds the room there on its own.
Possible Downsides
- Double glass runs on the plug-in adapter, so that version is dark during a power outage.
- Same warmth as the 44; for much more reach, the Wilderness Front Facing 68 moves to the larger long-log burner.
If your wall is wider than a 44 fills, the Wilderness Front Facing 51 is the right decision. The log fire fits the wall like it was built for it.
Configure it with a mesh screen or double glass with glass 15 3/4" or 21 5/8" tall and driftwood, valley oak, or birch logs.

Can you get an instant online estimate for the Ortal Front Facing Fireplace 51 (50x13)?
Yes—right on this page. Configure the Ortal Front Facing Fireplace 51 (50x13) and get a free, no-obligation instant estimate covering the unit as configured, a fitting vent kit, and professional installation labor. No phone call required.
What's included in the online estimate?
The unit with the options you selected, a real vent kit matched to your venting, and the installation labor for a typical setup. Your free one-to-two-hour in-home visit confirms every detail before anything is ordered.
Who pulls the permit?
We do, on every job, in every jurisdiction we serve—and we meet the inspector. It's built into the process, not an upsell.
Can you see the Ortal Front Facing Fireplace 51 (50x13) in a photo of your own room?
Yes. The Visualizer tab on this page renders the Ortal Front Facing Fireplace 51 (50x13) into a straight-on photo of your wall, scaled to the room, so you see it in your space before you price a thing. Phone photos are fine. It's a faithful preview, not an architectural drawing; sizing, venting, and trim get confirmed at the free in-home visit.
Is the online estimate real, or a rough guess?
Real, and honest about what it is: a price for the Ortal Front Facing Fireplace 51 (50x13) as configured, a fitting vent kit, and professional installation labor, built from real Seattle installs. It is not binding. The free one-to-two-hour in-home visit checks your actual house before the price is final, and nothing is ordered until then.
Do you install and service the Ortal Front Facing Fireplace 51 (50x13) yourselves?
Yes, both. Our own in-house installers set the Ortal Front Facing Fireplace 51 (50x13), run the venting and the gas, pull the permit, and light the first fire before leaving. Afterward the service desk looks after every unit that came from Sutter, with factory-trained technicians and a real date when you call.
