Description
A fire feature can look like an add-on or like it was always part of the design. The Outdoor Plus Cabo 60" is firmly the latter, a low, square metal fire pit with the clean silhouette of high-end architectural hardscape rather than a bulky bolt-on.
Fabricated and finished in the USA, the Cabo is a metal fire pit with crisp, architectural edges, the collection featured on the Netflix series The Agency. At 60 inches this is the largest Cabo Square, built for a terrace or a large patio where a smaller pit would look lost. Choose from ten finishes, five ignition systems, and either natural gas or liquid propane.
Why the 60" Cabo
Five feet across, and the fire is most of it
The 60" measures 60" L x 60" W x 16" H, with a 40" x 40" burning area set into the middle of the top. That is four times the fire surface of the 36" and roughly double the 48", which is what separates a large gathering piece from a table with a flame on it. Square rather than long, so seating wraps it on all four sides.
Be honest about your space before you choose it. At five feet square this needs room to breathe and clearance on every side, and on a modest patio the 48" is the better-proportioned answer for less money.
165,000 BTU, gathered in the center
The burner sits centered in the opening, so the flame reads as one gathered square of fire rather than a line running past you. That is the difference between a square pit and a long fire table, and it is the reason the Cabo works with seating on all four sides. Lava rock is included. If you upgrade to fire glass, the suggested fill for this size is 168 lbs, so budget for it as a real line item rather than an afterthought.
Metal, built to hold a crisp edge
Corten steel weathers to a deep russet patina over its first year and then stabilizes. Hammered patina copper develops its own living finish. Stainless steel and the powder-coat colors stay as delivered. All four are built for permanent outdoor exposure.
Choosing Your Options
Natural gas or liquid propane
Natural gas runs off a plumbed line and never needs refilling, which is the better answer if you already have a gas stub or are willing to have one run. Liquid propane runs off a tank, which means no plumbing but a tank to swap and somewhere to hide it. Pick the one that matches your property. The burner is configured for your choice at the factory and cannot be swapped later.
The five ignition systems, in plain English
- Match Lit, the simplest and least expensive. You turn a key valve and light it yourself. No power needed.
- Match Lit with Flame Sense, the same, plus a sensor that shuts the gas off if the flame blows out.
- Flame Sense with Spark, adds a push-button spark so you are not holding a lighter over the burner.
- Low Voltage Electronic (CSA certified), on and off from a remote or a wall switch. Needs a transformer and a power source nearby.
- Plug and Play (CSA certified), the same convenience, wired to plug into a standard outlet. The easiest of the electronic options to install.
If an inspector or local code is involved, the CSA-certified options are the ones with documentation on file.

Delivery & Installation
Delivery included. Built to order, ships in 3–4 weeks.
Your fire pit is built for your order, your finish, your ignition, your fuel type, so it isn't pulled off a shelf. Production runs about 3 to 4 weeks, then it goes out on a freight truck. Figure four to six weeks from your order to your patio.
Delivery is included in the price you see. No freight bill afterward, no surprise at checkout. Delivery is to the continental US, to your driveway or a designated spot on the property, with a liftgate where the size allows.
At five feet square this is a large, heavy crate. Have a clear path planned and a couple of people on hand to move it into place. When it's built, the freight carrier calls you to set a delivery window. Someone needs to be home to meet the truck and sign for it. Look the crate over before you sign, freight damage is rare, but it can only be put right if it's noted on the paperwork at the time.
Professional installation. As a gas fire feature, the Cabo should follow all clearances and local codes for your selected fuel type, and professional installation is recommended. If you don't have a preferred installer, contact us and we can point you toward qualified professional installation for your setup.
Built for you, so please double-check your choices. Because each unit is made to your specification, we can't return or exchange it once it goes into production. Take a minute over the finish, the ignition and whether you're on natural gas or propane. Not sure? Call 1-800-914-0074 or email sales@optimaloutdooroasis.com and we'll walk through it with you. We'd much rather answer questions first.
