Customer Comments: We need outdoor fireplace doors with mesh. Our location has high wind & blowing rain with temperature variance single digets to 80’s. Dimensions are 34.5” across & 31” high. Firebox opening is 8” off the floor. We like option #1 & #6 (From Project #11601). I think #6 is Stone Mfg so will ask you for alternative.
Our Comments: Yes, #6 was from Stone Manufacturing. We can replicate that door along with the tools and andirons featured with that door on Project #11601. I have presented some alternatives in a variety of materials and price ranges.
Fireplace Opening: 34 1/2" W x 31" H
Aluminum is the least expensive choice for outdoor fireplace doors. These doors are made from a light weight Aluminum and 304 stainless steel black mesh, they are not very heavy duty, but the alumuinum does not rust.
Both of these doors are constructed entirely from 304 stainless steel using a 3/16" outer frame. The main difference is hinges and door frame materials. The light duty has a thinner gauge pin hinged formed steel doors that are somewhat flimsy at a more affordable price. The heavy duty model is more expensive and features 3/16" thick solid stainless doors with heavy duty hinges for a added durability and the look and feel of quality.

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.
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.
