Abstract

A handle for lifting a firepit having an opening to a cavity defined between a first surface and a second surface with the first surface having a securement feature comprises a frame configured to span a cavity of the firepit, the frame having a grasp region shaped to be substantially horizontal when the handle is used to lift the firepit, a first support brace on the frame having a projection tab configured to selectively engage the securement feature of the first surface of the firepit, the first support brace being spaced a first distance from the grasp region, and a second support brace on the frame configured to selectively abut against the second surface of the firepit, the second support brace being devoid of a projection tab, the second support brace being spaced a second distance from the grasp region, the second distance being greater than the first distance.
