Custom Fireplace Glass Doors for Stone Fireplace - Project #20764

Customer Comments: I am looking for a heat, exchanger that incorporates glass doors

Our Comments: There are no heat exchangers on the market designed to work with gas logs. I have created mockups showing just the glass doors. To prevent the gas log burner from overheating, you must open the doors when the fire is on, with the exception of the Modern-1 glass door. The most common way to install doors on a stone fireplace is to fit them inside the opening and fill the gaps with mortar as shown in the mockups. I created one as an overlap door, which may also work in your case as the stone appears to be relatively flat.

Heavy Duty Grate Heater

The Grate Heater is made from much heavier materials and has an insulated fan that fits inside the fireplace rather than on the hearth for a more desireable finished look. An theremostat is included so the fan will come on automatically at 110F and turn off when the temperature falls below 90F. This way you can leave the fire to die out and still benefit from the heat without worrying about turning off the fan in the middle of the night.

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.
