Custom Screens and Doors for Large Fireplace Raised in the Wall - Project #20749

Customer Comments: I need a custom Fireplace. Preferably glass. The inside width of the opening is 53"and the length is 36" and 48" tall from the floor. Don't really want doors. I'd like a sleek glass piece if possible. Black or brass is good because my kitchen handles are a muted brass. There is a hanging light going in next week that is also the muted brass. I was thinking more brass because the tv and inside the fireplace is black.

Our Comments: Free standing glass screens always look great in magazine pictures, but they are not at all functional. If you are planning on burning wood, you cannot have them stadning in front of a fire. If you burn gas logs, they must be at least 8" in front of the fireplace when the logs are burning. I have included some additional options to consider, including some sleek glass doors you may not be aware of.

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.

High End Hand Crafted Wrought Iron/Steel 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.
