Customer Comments: I am looking for screen options for this fireplace. I am looking for mesh design not glass. And would like it to have doors so I can access the firewood.
Our Comments: Free standing screens this size will be top heavy and unstable when the doors are open. We recommend adding rear brackets with wing nuts to prevent the screen from falling over. Here are some ideas made from solid brass to get started.
Fireplace Opening: 41" W x 41" H
These pieces are hand crafted by skilled artisans at Stone Manufacturing from 100% solid virgin brass. Many finishes and trim details are available as shown lower on this page. These are the finest quality brass fireplace accessories made in the USA.

Option #3: Stone Manufacturing DF1M-22-VSD Solid Brass Free Standing Screen Door with #22 Laurel Leaf Casting Door Trim, #66 Bellini Inner Door Trim and Special VSD Victorian Feet.
Option #4: Stone Manufacturing DF1M-FSD Solid Brass Free Standing Screen Door with Square Hinges and 8" Square Legs in Flat Black. May require rear foot brackets for added support.
Option #4 Example: Shown in satin nickel with hammered texture. We are proposing to make this screen in flat black without the hammered texture.
Option #5: Design Specialties Carolina Screen Door with Fixed Top Panel in Rustic Black. Max Door Size is 40 x 30, anything larger requires fixed panels.
Option #6: Design Specialties Legend Fireplace Glass Door with 2" Frame Notched for Mantel Legs in Rustic Black. Shown with Clear Glass, Gate Mesh Backup Doors and Built-In 6" Smoke Guard. The existing smoke guard must be removed in order to install this door.
Rear Feet with Brackets: The brackets are bolted to the floor inside the fireplace. The rear feet slip under the brackets and tightened down with wing nuts. This will prevent the screen from falling over when it is open and make it easy to remove the screen when desired. The screen will flex a little with these feet, but will be safe to open and close. For even more stability, we can add magnets at the top that will stick to the smoke guard, as long as it is made from steel or some other magnetic material.
These are baked enamel finishes, so they are all heat resistant. These are all Group 1 finishes, which are same price group as flat black.
Use your imagination to create the perfect fireplace screen with these solid brass castings from Stone Manufacturing. Compliment architectural details in the mantel or other furnishings in our home, or simply create your own unique look. Available in a wide variety of finishes.
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.
