Glass Doors For Ledger Stone Fireplace - Project #10237

Customer Comments: The following photos are the cover we are interested in (Bungalow Stock Door), full fireplace, bottom left corner inside, upper left corner inside, exact measurement width, exact measurement height. Thanks!

Our Comments: The Bungalow does not come in a stock size that fits your fireplace opening, so we would need to custom make that door to fit. Although we can do an overlap fit on your fireplace, the irregularities in the stone will not allow the frame to fit very flush against the fireplace, so there will be gaps as much as 1" deep in places between the frame and the stones. A wider frame like the Bungalow will help hide those gaps, but you may wish to consider a more custom alternative, which is to fit the door inside the opening and fill the gaps with mortar. We have provided examples of both applications, although it is not possible to show the gaps on the outside fit. To get a better idea of how the gaps will be, just put a straight edge up against the fireplace (see fig #2 below).

Fireplace Opening: 44 3/8" W x 24 3/8" H (approximate)

Stiletto

Option #1: Stiletto Custom Inside Fit Fireplace Door in Rustic Black - We would make this door 3/8" less on the top and each side, so the finished make to size would be: 43 5/8" W x 24" H

Bungalow

Option #2: Bungalow Custom Outside Fit Fireplace Door in Satin Brass - We would make this door with a 2" Overlap on the top and each side to help minimize seeing inside the fireplace through the gaps in the stones. The overall make to size would be: 48 3/8" W x 26" H

Glass Door Mesh Options

If you are planning on burning anything in your fireplace, you need to have mesh behind the glass so you can burn a fire with the doors open. You can chooe between gate mesh backup doors and sliding mesh curtains. Functionally, gate mesh performs the best as the wire has smaller holes that sparks cannot get through. Aesthetically, mesh curtains may be preferred because they do not have a vertical center frame that obstructs the view of the fire. When you are not using the fire or you want a complete unobstructed view, they do not stick out like gate mesh doors when they are opened.

We are showing these options on a flat steel bifold door with a satin brass overlay and gray glass.

Glass Options

Tempered vs Ceramic Glass: Tempered glass can handle sustained temperatures up to about 450F without breaking from heat and should be at least 8" from the flames. Ceramic glass can handle sustained temperatures up to about 1450F and be in direct contact with the flames. If you wish to burn fires with the doors closed, I highly recommend upgrading to ceramic glass. Ceramic glass is $800-$2000 more than tempered glass depending on the manufacturer.

Not all doors are available with all of these glass options.
