Customer Comments: Looking for glass doors with a vent that can be burned with the doors closed. Doors must cover damaged stone on top and sides.
Our Comments: Here is a variety of doors that can be made to fit your fireplace. Doors by Design Specialties can be burned with the doors and vent open or closed at any time. Doors from Hearth Creations require pyro ceramic glass to be burned closed, otherwise they must be burned with the doors open except when starting a fire or when the fire is dying out.
Fireplace Opening: 34" W x 27 1/2" H x 30 1/2" H (to cover damage)
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.

Stone manufacturing is the extreme high end when it comes to fireplace doors. This particular door is hand crafted from solid brass, so the antique brass finish is authentic. Here is a link to the many Trims and Finishes you can choose from.
Option #10: Stone Manufacturing Solid Brass Glass Door with Mini Crown Molding Outer Trim and Half Round Solid Brass Extrusion Door Frames Gray Glass and with Gate Mesh Backup Doors.
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.
