Glass Doors for Zero Clearance Fireplace with Stacked Stone - Project 11526

Customer Comments: Hi, requesting some design support for this fireplace opening (see pictures). I purchased a custom door years ago from you all and had great luck (previous house) and hoping for something that can work for this smaller fireplace. Would like to stick to a rustic black with glass doors for closure. This existing opening has a screen which we are not fond of so curious about what can be done with that. Also, this fireplace is wood burning (not gas), and because of its small opening size want to frame it smaller to not make the opening appear smaller with the new door. Let me know any other questions you may have or the information required! Appreciate it!

Our Comments: Here are some mockups of doors that can be made to fit your fireplace. The outside fitting doors will completely change the proportion of the fireplace and make it look larger. Doors fitting outside require 1/4" spacers on the back side of the frame to allow proper airflow into the fireplace and must be burned with the doors open. We recommend gate mesh backup doors behind the glass to replace your existing mesh curtains so you can burn safely with the doors open.

Fireplace Opening: 38" W x 20 7/8" 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.
