Glass Doors for Large Corner Fireplace with Short Side - Project #20559

Customer Comments: Hello, I came across your company while searching for fireplace screens. I purchased a home three years ago and never used to fireplace and it never had a screen so not sure what was there before. I have a few pictures and video that I took before reviewing your site in detail. lol If when I sent is not sufficient, let me know and I'm happy to send more thinking in advance. Looking forward to chatting with you.

Our Comments: Here are the mockups I promised you. If you are planning on burning wood, it is a good idea to have glass doors made with ceramic glass if you can afford it. This will allow you to burn fires with the doors open or closed. With tempered or ceramic glass, you can close the doors as the fire is dying out to keep the warm air in the house. Mesh curtains are the least expensive alternative, but they allow cold air to come into the home overnight if you leave the damper open (which you should).

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.

Approximate Fireplace Opening: 59" W (Front) x 14 1/4" W (Side) x 27" H

Glass Door Mesh Options

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.
