Custom Screens for Small Spanish Style Full Arch Fireplace - Project #20890

Customer Comments: Home is a very small (950 sqft) house in San Juan Capistrano, CA. Home is very loosely based on minimal Spanish revival style. We are first time home buyers looking for a very subtle screen that will not over power the room or small fireplace.

Our Comments: Here are a few examples of screens that can be made to fit your half circle arched fireplace. I am showing a couple of these with some high-end gas logs and special andirons to finish off the look.

*Closeout Specials: These items were purchased from Stone Manufacturing just before they went out of business and are being sold at or below half price while supplies last.

Shown with Closeout Special* WI-AN3 Arrow Andirons and Grand Canyon Lava Series Gas Logs. These are the most realistic gas logs on the market with burners cast inside the logs so flames come directly out of the logs themselves, just like real wood.

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.

Mesh Curtains

Glass Options

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 sustained temperatures up to about 1450F and be in direct contact with the flames. If you wish to burn fires with the doors closed, I highly recommend upgrading to ceramic glass. Ceramic glass is $800-$2000 more than tempered glass depending on the manufacturer.

Not all doors are available with all of these glass options.
