Custom Size Glass Doors for Traditional Fireplace with Granite Surround - Project #20762

Customer Comments: Looking for glass doors. Want to leave as much of the granite surround exposed as possible

Our Comments: Each of the doors depicted below can be made to overlap the granite just 1/4" to 1/2", leaving the rest exposed. I have included doors made from a variety of materials and price ranges from low to high end. They can be made with ceramic glass and a bottom draft for burning with the doors closed (except for the elite). Mesh curtains or gate mesh backup doors behind the glass are optional for burning with the doors open.

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.

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.
