Customer Comments: We are thinking about getting a frame made for our fireplace. 44 x 27.5
Our Comments: I am assuming you want glass doors, but have included a couple other options as well that have frames.
Fireplace Opening: 44" W x 27 1/2" H
Before:
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. Heavy Gauge aluminum doors are easily installed with pressure screws, no drilling required. Lightweight aluminum doors require drilling holes in the metal fireplace for mounting brackets.
Option #1: Design Specialties Stiletto Lightweight Aluminum Fireplace Glass Door in Rustic Black.
Option #2: Hearth Creations Heavy Gauge Profile-2 Fireplace Glass Door in Matte Black.
Steel doors are more substantial than the less expensive aluminum doors. They are heavy duty and rugged and are more customizable because the frames are laser cut.
Option #3: Hearth Creations Iron Age 2 Fireplace Glass Door with Hammered Texture in Matte Black.
Option #4: Hearth Creations Mid-Century Modern-5 Fireplace Glass Door with Matte Black Frame, Brushed Nickel Plated Doors and Gray Glass.
These doors are hand crafted by skilled artisans from Solid Brass or Steel, depending on the finish that is desired. Very high end, and very refined. Items made from solid brass come in a wide variety of hand crafted patinas and other finishes. Satin Nickel finishes done on solid brass are the finest quality and will not rust like plated steel.
Option #5: Stone Manufacturing HYBRID-2 Solid Brass Bifold Fireplace Glass Door in Weathered Brass. This door has no frame on the sides.
Option #6: Design Specialties Carolina Single Panel Fireplace Screen in Vintage Iron.
Option #7: Stone Manufacturing 1P33M Solid Brass Fireplace Screen with Antique Pewter Surround, Rope Casting Outer Trim and 1/2" Inner Trim in Satin Nickel.
Option #8: Stone Manufacturing CFR85-52 Fireplace Frame Screen with Half Oval Trim in Satin Nickel.
Each layer of the surround trim is cut from 11 gauge solid steel. It is attached to the fireplace with 3/4" thick super heavy duty rare earth magnets. The inner trim is screwed to the outer trim with wing nuts and has about a 1" return on the inside edge to hide the gap created by the magnets.
Option #9A: Hearth Creations Surround Trim in Matte Black with Oil Rubbed Bronze Inner Trim with Magnetic Attachment.
Option #9B: Hearth Creations Surround Trim in Matte Black with Champagne Inner Trim with Magnetic Attachment.
Option #9C: Hearth Creations Surround Trim in Matte Black with Antique Steel Inner Trim with Magnetic Attachment.
Option #9D: Hearth Creations Surround Trim in Matte Black with Dark Pewter Inner Trim with Magnetic Attachment.
Option #9E: Hearth Creations Surround Trim in Matte Black with Bronzed Iron Inner Trim with Magnetic Attachment.

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.
