Customer Comments: Hello, I would like a custom (not glass) fireplace screen for an outdoor fireplace on the bay (saltwater). I would like a stand alone design- custom single panel - simple style such as your "Carolina plain" Because of elements I am assuming it would be made of brass and I would like it black. The measurements of the opening are 37 inches wide by 32 inches height. Please provide all options.
Our Comments: The Carolina screen cannot be made from solid brass. The company that specializes in screens for outdoor fireplaces is Stone Manufacturing. They make screens from solid brass painted black, Stainless Steel and Wrought Iron with a Graphite Coating (most durable). We did not provide mockups of stainless steel since you requested black. Also, your grate does not look like it is made for outdoors and is too short. The log lighter should go under the grate and the great should be taller to allow airflow under the logs to help keep the fire going. We have included a special outdoor grate and toolset in the mockups as well. There are others, but these particular ones are quite substantial and heavy duty and will last many years.
Fireplace Opening: 37" W x 32" H
Before:
These screens are made to withstand the elements and are the best possible materials for salt air locations. Keep in mind that salt air is very corrosive and will eventually discolor or tarnish any non-precious metal. Solid Brass painted black holds up very well while zinc coated wrought iron is the best. The black paint will last for many years, but will eventually need to be repainted.

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.
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.
