Unique Custom Fireplace Screens for Very Large Arched Fireplace - Project #20806

Customer Comments: 76.5" wide 36" high at the center down to 28" high This is a mountain home owned by a large multi-generational family - some members are more attentive than others. The fire grate is in the center of the fireplace and is 36" wide. We have talked about doing a three piece screen with two sides and an overlapping center screen that would allow for easy access. (See photo 3) but that may be too fussy. We are really looking for safe and simple. I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks.

Our Comments: Here are some unique options that I have designed specifically for large fireplaces like yours. Hope this helps.

Fireplace Opening: 76 1/2" W x 36" H (Center) x 28" H (Sides)

Gothic 3-Fold Screen with Mesh Curtains

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.
