    You just need to get a curved grate to suit backboiler more than likely a Gercross grate.Should be available in any builders merchants or good hardware store

    Or you could get a fire guard that sits onto the existing grate. Bring your photo to a good hardware shop

    14 euro for one for a 14 inch curved fire grate in Grange Builders Providers.16 euro for a 16 inch grate

    Woodies also have them,but it will cost you more.

    I would always get my fire grate from these guys:

    Seems to be a next day delivery to Ireland, every time I order it is anyway!

    Its looks fro. The pic like you have the proper grate for your back boiler.

    Other posters saying...get a grate from Woodies etc...are wrong in this case.
    Ordinary grate won't fit your back boiler.

    Its really a case of getting a new forefront that sits in front of the grate...yours is a more modern type.
    The ones that site in front of a back boiler grate are different.
