Custom Fireplace Screens and Doors for Gothic Arched Fireplace - Project #20738

Customer Comments: Looking for a custom fire screen.

Our Comments: Here are some ideas including free standing screens, mesh doors and glass doors.

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.

Before:

Single Panel Screens

Single panel screens provide excellent spark protection, but must be set aside when tending the fire, so they are not as convenient as attached doors.

Mesh Doors

Mesh doors provide excellent spark protection and are more convenient than free standing screens since you simply open and close them to tend the fire.

Option #3: Hand Crafted Wrought Iron Gothic Arch Mesh Cabinet Fireplace Door in Burnished Black.

Glass Doors

Glass doors are the ultimate fireplace treatment. Gate mesh backup doors can be added behind the glass to provide spark protection when the doors are open. Adding ceramic glass allows you can burn fires with the doors open or closed, giving you ultimate control over the fire. Close the doors as the fire dies out to prevent heat loss during the night when you leave the damper open.

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.
