Customer Comments: Fireplace #1: 47 inches wide, 41 inches from floor to middle of arch, 31 inches from bottom of fireplace to middle of arch. Fireplace #2 (Bedroom): 34 inches wide and 31 inches from the bottom of opening to middle of fireplace

Our Comments: Free standing screens will not work with these fireplaces, so I have designed screen doors that are made to fit the shape of the openning.

Medium to High-End Steel Doors

Steel doors are more substantial than the less expensive aluminum doors. They are heavy duty and rugged and are more customizable because the frames are laser cut.

Fireplace #2 Option #2: Hand Crafted Plain Wrought Iron Fireplace Mesh Door in Burnished Medium Bronze with Detachable Frame and Doors Cut to Match Mantel.

Detachable Frame

The detachable frame comes in several pieces that are bolted together. This allows you to install a door behind the facing and is particularly useful with very irregular stone. This can also be made with offset hinges that extend beyond the stone allowing the doors to open all the way flat against the stone and avoiding hitting the frame on the stone edges.

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.

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.
