Customer Comments: I would like an enclosed fireplace with glass or ceramic
Our Comments: Here are some examples of glass doors that can be made to fit your tall fireplace. Keep in mind that gas logs must be burned with the doors open, so there is no need for ceramic glass unless you plan on switching to burning real wood.
Fireplace Opening: 41" W x 53" 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 #1: Hearth Creations Basic 2 Aluminum Bifold Fireplace Door in Charcoal with Tempered Glass.
Option #2: PW Crown Aluminum Bifold Fireplace Door in Anodized Brushed Steel with Tempered or Ceramic Glass and Mesh Curtains.
Option #3: Hearth Creations Profile-4 Aluminum Bifold Fireplace Door in Anodized Nickel with Tempered Glass.
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 #4: PW Elite Steel Bifold Fireplace Door in Satin Nickel with Tempered or Ceramic Glass.
Option #5: PW Revelation Steel Bifold Fireplace Door with Small Fixed Glass Panels in Pewter with Tempered or Ceramic 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 #6: Stone Manufacturing SD-52 Solid Brass Sliding Fireplace Door with Half Oval Casting Trim in Antique Pewter with Tempered Glass (Shown Open). The outer glass panes are fixed while the inner panes slide left and right to open and close.
Option #7: Stone Manufacturing DF1G-FS-9T Solid Brass Framed Cabinet Fireplace Door with Fixed End Panels, Split Tube Surround and Keystone in Polished Nickel with Tempered 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.
