Customer Comments: Isokern Magnum 60 wood burning fireplace. 73” wide by 36” tall.
Our Comments: Below are some options I recommend for your Isokern fireplace. I had to use some AI software to blow up your picture and regenerate it, but this will give you a good idea of each treatment.
Glass doors are the ultimate treatment for large wood burning fireplaces to help reduce the draft that comes. You can close the doors after you are finished with the fire to prevent cold air from coming into your home during the night after you build a fire. If you add ceramic glass, you can burn fires with the doors open or closed to give you full control over how your fire burns and how much draft it creates.
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.
Fireplace Opening: 73" W x 36" H
Mesh curtains are the least expensive option. They provide reasonable spark protection and are convenient when tending the fire.
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. Shown with the frame fitting inside the opening and mortar filling the gap between the frame and the stones.
Hand crafted doors take on a more rugged natural look for those who appreciate craftsmanship tasteful details. These doors are very heavy duty and meant for those who use the fireplace regularly during the winter. Shown with the frame fitting inside the opening and mortar filling the gap between the frame and the stones.
Mesh doors are made with wire mesh instead of glass and provide excellent spark protection. These are shown overlapping the stones without the need of mortar.
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.
