Glass Doors for Small Outdoor Zero Clearance Fireplace - Project #20683

Customer Comments: Need glass doors for outdoor fireplace.

Our Comments: This fireplace requires special doors that allow air to flow freely into the fireplace. This can be done by fitting the doors inside and leaving the slot at the bottom exposed, overlapping the tile with 1/4" spacers behind the door frame, or overlapping the metal with doors that have offset hinges with space between the outer frame and door frame. Here are examples of all three types.

Fireplace Opening: 40 3/4" W x 20 1/4" H

Affordable Aluminum Doors

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. The doors fit inside the opening, so some of the rusted metal fireplace will be visible.

Stiletto

Option #: Design Specialties Stiletto Aluminum Cabinet Fireplace Door in Black with Gate Mesh Backup Doors.

High-End Stainless Steel Doors

These doors are made from 304 stainless steel with a powder coat finish. They are built with 1/4" spacers on the back of the frame that creates a gap between the frame and the tile to allow air to flow into the fireplace.

Flat Steel

Option #: Hearth Creations 304 Stainless Steel Bifold Fireplace Glass Door in Matte Black with Gate Mesh Backup Doors.

High End Hand Crafted Wrought Iron/Steel Doors

These doors are hand crafted by a blacksmith from 1/4" thick zinc coated wrought iron with a powder coat finish. These are the most heavy duty doors on the market and made to fit just inside the tile for a clean finished look. The doors are made with offset hinges to allow air to flow freely between the door frame and outer frame.

Wrought Iron

Option #: Hand Crafted Pacifico Zinc Coated Wrought Iron Bifold Fireplace Door in Vintage Iron with Gate Mesh Backup Doors.

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.
