Garden Pizza Nights
Outdoor pizza ovens are essential garden kit - proper Neapolitan pizza at home, crispy bases, bubbling cheese. But these are serious heat sources that need proper setup. Wobbly stands and incorrect clearances are dangerous.
🔥 Safety first. Exhaust temperatures exceed 400°C. Combustible surfaces catch fire. Proper clearances exist for good reason.

🔧 DIY Tips
Setting it up yourself? Here's what matters:
🔧 Tools you'll need
- Socket set
- Spirit level
- Allen keys
- Leak detection spray (for gas)
📐 Key steps
- Check clearances FIRST
- Build stand on final position
- Level before placing oven
- Test brakes before use
- Check gas connections for leaks
⚠️ Common mistakes
- Too close to fences/structures
- Unstable surface
- Not locking wheels when cooking
- Skipping gas leak checks
💡 Pro trick: Position the stand before final assembly. Once the oven's on top, it's heavy and awkward to move. Decide exactly where you want it first.
Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.
Good to Know
🍕 Don't cook on day one - most ovens need initial seasoning burn-ins to cure coatings. Follow manufacturer guidance. Your first few pizzas are practice anyway.
Ground surface:
- Patio slabs ideal
- NOT on decking (fire risk)
- NOT on lawn (unstable)
- Level essential
Weather:
- Cover when not in use
- Bring portables inside for winter
- Wheels make moving easier
Frequently Asked Questions
What types do you assemble?
Portable ovens like Ooni, Gozney, Bertello - usually need stand assembly and positioning. Larger cabinet-style ovens on wheeled stands. Wood-fired and gas options.
Where should it be positioned?
Away from anything flammable - fences, branches, parasols. Stable level surface. Good ventilation. Not too far from your kitchen.
Do pizza ovens need special clearances?
Yes - manufacturers specify minimum distances. Usually 1m+ above and behind. The chimney gets very hot. I'll check your oven's requirements.
Can you connect the gas?
I can connect the regulator to your gas bottle and check for leaks. Permanent gas line installation needs a Gas Safe engineer.
