Customer Comments: Hello Greg, Can your company make glass doors for a corner placed gas log fireplace like in these pictures below? Do you have other ways you might suggest for the enclosure on this fireplace?
Our Comments: We can certainly make glass doors for your corner fireplace. The only issue I see is the gas line coming in on the right side. This will require a steel door with a return on the back side that can be notched to go over the pipe. Here are some examples.
Fireplace Opening: 39 5/16" W (Long Side) x 28" W (Short Side) W x 23 3/16" H
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.
Option #0: Design Specialties Brookfield Aluminum Corner Fireplace Glass Door in Matte Black. This option will require a plumber to move the gas line out of the way.
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.
Hand crafted doors take on a more rugged natural look for those who appreciate craftsmanship tasteful details.
Option #2: Hearth Creations Iron Age 2 Corner Fireplace Glass Door with Hammered Texture in Charcoal.
Option #3: Hearth Creations Iron Age 4 Corner Fireplace Glass Door with Corner Straps and Rivets in Burnished Bronze.
Option #4: Hand Crafted Wrought Iron Summerton Corner Fireplace Door with Rivets in Burnished Black Copper.
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.
