Customer Comments: Thank you. I would like a black matte finish to match the andirons. The opening is 60x84.
Our Comments: Here are a variety of screens and doors that can be made for extra large fireplaces like yours. Although they are pictured in other finishes, each can be made in matte black.
Fireplace Opening: 84" W x 60" H
Free standing screens offer a less obstructed view of the fire. They are somewhat inconvenient as they must be set aside when tending the fire.
Option #2: Stone Manufacturing WI-1P30M Wrought Iron Single Panel Screen with Scroll Feet and Twist Handles in Natural Iron. Shown with WI-T3 Tools with Custom Basket.
Option #2B: Stone Manufacturing WI-1P30M Wrought Iron Single Panel Screen with Scroll Feet, Twist Handles and Rivets in Flat Black. Shown with Matching WI-T3 Tools with Custom Basket.
Although these screen doors are typically designed to be free standing, they must be attached to the fireplace at the top for stability.
Option #3: Stone Manufacturing WI-FSD Wrought Iron Free Standing Screen Door in Natural Iron. Shown with WI-T3 Tools with Custom Basket.
Option #4: Stone Manufacturing WI-FSD Wrought Iron Free Standing Screen Door with Custom Scrollwork in Natural Iron. Shown with WI-T3 Tools with Custom Basket.
Doors that are attached to the fireplace are functional and convenient.
Option #5: Hearth Creations Iron Age-4 Bifold Mesh Doors with Corner Straps and Rivets in Metallic Latte.
Option #6A: Stone Manufacturing WI-DF1M Wrought Iron Bifold Mesh Doors in Natural Iron. Shown with WI-T3 Tools with Custom Basket.
Option #6B: Stone Manufacturing WI-DF1M Wrought Iron Single Mesh Door with Fixed End Panels in Flat Black Iron. Shown with WI-T3 Tools with Custom Basket.
These sliding glass doors allow you to close off the fireplace as the fire dies out. The unique sliding design allows the doors to open and close without projecting out into the room.
Option #7: Design Specialties Hudson Roller Fireplace Barn Door in Rustic Black with Clear Glass and Gate Mesh Backup Doors. Shown with Doors Closed. Can also be made without glass.
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.
