Customer Comments: The fireplace has an unusually high opening from ground. Surrounded by slate tiles. Fireplace opening is 40 1/4" wide, 20 1/4" high, 2" deep. Like the rod iron look. Black or grey color, No gold. Matte only. Nothing too ornate. Like two door opening.
Our Comments: Here are some examples of mesh doors made from a variety of materials and price ranges. These are all designed to overlap the tiles. They can also be made to fit inside the opening, but not all of them will work as they have a subframe that is up to 2" deep and protrudes back into the fireplace, which may prevent them from being recessed very far into the opening.
Fireplace Opening: 40 1/4" W x 20 1/4" H x 2" D
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.

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.
