Custom Fireplace Glass Doors for Zero Clearance L-Shaped Corner Fireplace with Gas Logs - Project #20811

Customer Comments: Need simple doors with black trim

Our Comments: There are a couple ways to make doors for this fireplace. The first option shows doors that fit inside the opening and must be burned with the doors open. The installation requires some drilling and the use of self-tapping screws to attach it to the fireplace. The second and third options show a special door made with a Gas Log Airwash System that allows you to burn gas logs with the doors closed. This door is designed to cover all of the black metal and simply attaches with heavy duty magnets, so there is no actual installation required.

Gas Log Warning: To prevent the burner and pilot mechanism from overheating causing safety issues, gas logs must be burned with glass doors open. The Modern-1 door is an exception to this rule as it can be made with a special Gas Log AirWash system that allows enough air into the fireplace to reduce overheating. Read more below.

Fireplace Opening: 35 1/8" W (Front) x 17 3/8" W (Side) x 21 3/8" H

The right photo shows a wide back frame (not hidden) with slots for the optional AirWash system that allows air to flow freely into the fireplace so you can burn fires with the doors closed. Keep in mind, these slots are always open, so they are less tightly sealed than other 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.
