Rebate Depth
Most dimensions are fairly obvious but the Rebate Depth is one that is often misunderstood. If the fireplace surround is sitting directly against a wall and there is nothing behind it, there is no need for a rebate. Often there will be something behind the inside leg of the surround. This might be a back-panel or slip (a piece of stone or marble), or it might be a fireplace insert (a cast iron fireplace where wood or coal is burned). If the inside leg of the surround is sitting against anything the depth of the inside leg will need to be reduced to allow for this. This gap is known as the Rebate Depth.
