Glass Doors for Stacked Stone Fireplace with Overhang - Project #10735

Customer Comments: Need glass door and inside of fireplace refinished. I need some ideas looking to get done ASAP. Thank you.

Our Comments: Here are some ideas for glass doors. Any doors you choose will need to be custom made because of the overhanging ledge. We can make a door overlap the sides and fit under the ledge. We can also make the opening look wider by using fixed end panels on the door or even adding glass panels to the fixed end panels. We were not sure about finish choices since you did not supply a picture of the room decor, so if there is some other finish you would prefer, please let us know.

Fireplace Opening: 34" W x 23 1/2" H

Low End Aluminum Doors

Aluminum is an excellent material for fireplace doors because it does not rust and can handle high temperatures when treated with powder coated finishes. It is also the most affordable.

Medium Range Steel Doors

Steel doors are more substantial than the less expensive aluminum doors. They are heavy duty and rugged and are more customizable because the frames are laser cut.

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.
