Custom Fireplace Glass Doors - Project #21039

Customer Comments: Good morning. I have more of a fancy design taste (See Example). I do not want a screen that hides the stone irregularities and edges. I also do not want a 3 sided screen either. I also am not looking for any glass. Any suggestions are welcomed. We never use this fireplace because of the furniture placement, but it is a focal point in the room and I want something that looks special. If you think we need glass doors to accomplish this look, that is fine too. I think that the fireplace is 42 wide and 32 high

Our Comments: Here are a variety of choices incliuding free standing screens, mesh doors and glass doors. All of these can be made to fit inside the opening and not cover the stone edges, but they are much more stable when they can lean against the fireplace, so I am showing some overlapping the stone.

Fireplace Opening: 42" W x 32" H

High End Hand Forged Wrought Iron Doors

Hand forged by a blacksmith from 1/4" thick solid wrought iron with heavy duty gasketed doors for a tighter seal and maximum draft reduction. Not only are these built to be used, they take on a more rugged natural look for those who appreciate craftsmanship and tasteful details. The forging process produces a unique texture that you cannot get with laser cut steel and there are added hammered textures that can be for a more rustic applications. These doors are often used for extremely large fireplaces because of their heavy duty solid frame and hinges. They are commonly ordered with ceramic glass for buring hot fires with the doors closed.

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.

No Mesh

Gate Mesh Backup Doors

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.
