Customer Comments: I'm interested in a quote for the "single panel early American screen", S104. The decor opposite the fireplace is misleading-there will be two easy chairs with small footstool/poufs there. No coffee table, and not the eurent extra dining chairs or antique loveseat! Thanks,
Our Comments: The Early American screen can be made with standard wire mesh or perforated mesh. Standard mesh from this company requires horizontal support bars in sizes this large. Perforated mesh is much thicker and heavier and can be made without them, but tends to block some heat and is harder to see through. For these reasons, I have included some alternatives to consider.
Fireplace Opening: 49" W x 42" H
Option #1A: Hearth Creations S014 Early American Single Panel Screen in Matte Black with Standard Mesh and Horizontal Support Bars.
Option #1B: Hearth Creations S014 Early American Single Panel Screen in Matte Black with Perforated Mesh.
Option #3: Stone Manufacturing 1P30M Single Panel Screen with Heavy Duty Wire Mesh and Queen Anne Feet and Handles.
Option #4: Stone Manufacturing 1P30 CRAFTS Bowed Screen in Flat Black with Weathered Brass Accents.
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.
