Customer Comments: Hi Greg, I'm working on a new build and have 4 fireplaces that need screens. Originally we had wanted to have roller screens, but there is not enough clearance to conceal the housing. And we don't want an exposed valance. We're now leaning towards mesh curtains. I wanted to see if you can make these sizes with the closet mount attachment. And would like to see specs and get quotes. Hoping that the rod can be concealed, but not a lot of space.
Our Comments: After talking over the phone and reviewing all of your documetation, I have come up with the recommendations below. I could not create a mockup for the screened porch due to the angle of the picture. Each of these would use a special bar and mesh with a 1 1/2" wide black header bar. Most of the bar will be covered by the mantel depending on the allotted space. We will be using the Track and Roller System due to the large width and height of the openings.
Fireplace #1 - Family Room: C92 Bar and Mesh with I-Beam Track and Roller System in Flat Black Steel. Shown with Custom 42" Wide Wrought Iron Grate and Matching T-1 Granada Fireplace Tools in Natural Iron.
Fireplace #2 - Living Room: C92 Bar and Mesh with I-Beam Track and Roller System in Flat Black Steel. Shown with 42" Gas Burning 6" Diameter Cannon Balls.
Fireplace #3 - Library: C92 Bar and Mesh with I-Beam Track and Roller System in Flat Black Steel. Shown with 36" Gas Burning 6" Diameter Cannon Balls.
Fireplace #4 - Screened Porch: C92 Bar and Mesh with I-Beam Track and Roller System in Flat Black Solid Brass for Outdoors (no mockup available)
The I-Beam track with rollers makes it possible to have a bar and mesh over 48" wide that does not sag. It also slides more easily with larger fireplaces.

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.
