Screen Options for Rough Stone Arched Fireplace - Project #20280

Customer Comments: no door. most of the time the screen is off. We would like something simple to take away and simple to put up. We would like something that is safe to put on the fireplace at night making sure no sparks can get by. Often times we will relight the fire in the morning with the embers still glowing. Would love an outline of a black lab somewhere on it if possible

Our Comments: Here are a variety of free standing screens that can be placed in front of the fireplace when desired. We also included a built-in screen door that you can open or close any time.

Fireplace Opening: 42" W x 33" H (center) x 27 1/2" (sides)

Affordable Aluminum Doors

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.

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.

Mesh Curtains

Glass Options

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.
