Customer Comments: Hi Greg, I am looking for options to have someone build me a custom 3 panel folding fireplace screen (I think) for a large wood burning fireplace in our new construction home. The firebox opening measures 50-51" wide and 38" high. There is a raised hearth with limestone cap. Please let me know if you could come up with a design or suggestions to build a custom one and provide pricing please. If there are options for a brass/bronze over black I would explore that too. We have a lot of brass accents in our home including lighting fixtures, door handles, etc. Thanks.
Our Comments: Here are some options to consider including single panel screens, folding screens and a unique bowed curtain screen that is my own exclusive design. The bowed curtain screen is great for large fireplaces as it stands on its own and you do not have to pick it up and set it on the floor every time you tend the fire.
Fireplace Opening: 50" to 51" W x 38" H
I designed this screen specfically for larger fireplaces to allow great spark protection and convenience. The sides are bowed with wire mesh and the center has sliding mesh curtains. Available in solid brass, black steel or wrought iron.
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.
