Customer Comments: Hello Greg, I'm looking to replace our fireplace custom door. The measurements are 52 W x 30 1/2 H. We would like a glass decorative door. I have attached the pictures you requested. Thank you.
Our Comments: Here are several doors that can be made to fit your large fireplace. If you are planning on burning real wood and wish to burn fires with the doors closed, you should consider buying doors with ceramic 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 temperatures up to about 1450F and can have direct contact with the flames. If you wish to burn fires with the doors closed, I highly recommend upgrading to ceramic glass.

Before:
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: Design Specialties Stiletto Fireplace Door in Rustic Black with Tempered Glass and Mesh Curtains.
Option #2: PW Crown Decorative Aluminum Fireplace Door in Brushed Steel with Tempered or Ceramic Glass and Mesh Curtains.
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 #3: PW Essential Steel Fireplace Door in Dark Bronze with Tempered or Ceramic Glass and Mesh Curtains.
Option #4: Hand Crafted Elegant Steel Fireplace Door with Mission Window Pane in Satin Black with Tempered or Ceramic Glass and Mesh Curtains.
Hand crafted doors take on a more rugged natural look for those who appreciate craftsmanship tasteful details.

Option #7: Hand Crafted Wrought Iron Fireplace Door with Scroll Pattern in Distressed Buff Pewter with Tempered or Ceramic Glass and Gate Mesh Backup Doors.
These doors are hand crafted by skilled artisans at Stone Manufacturing. Very high end, very decorative, and very refined. Available in a variety of hand crafted patinas and specialty finishes.

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.
