Custom Screens and Doors for Fully Arched Fireplace - Project #20763

Customer Comments: Fireplace is arched. We also have a very young child and would like to childproof the fireplace, so we want to make sure the screen is very difficult to move or maybe be bolted in place. House is still being moved into, so not much furniture yet.

Our Comments: There are several types of screens and doors that can be made to fit your fireplace and childproof it. Glass doors are the ulimate solution since they help block the draft that comes down the chimney year-around. Attached mesh Doors and free standing mesh doors with top clamps are also available. I have created mockups of each.

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.
