Customer Comments: Interested in a barrier - Multi-Sided and Corner Fireplace Screens.
Our Comments: Here are a variety of ways to treat your fireplace to protect children, pets and block sparks. Glass doors will have a fixed glass pane or cabinet door on the right and cabinet or bifold doors on the front.
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 temperatures up to about 1450F and can have direct contact with the flames. If you wish to burn fires with the doors closed, I highly recommend upgrading to ceramic glass.
Fireplace Opening: 38" W (Front) x 23 1/16" W (Side) x 23 7/8" H (Left) x 23 1/2" H (Right)
These free standing screens can be made with or without the decoative legs. They can be made as two free standing screens joined at the corner with a hinge, or with a cabinet door on the front and a single panel on the side.

Aluminum is an excellent material for fireplace doors because it does not rust and can handle relatively high temperatures when treated with powder coated finishes. It is not as heavy duty and rugged as steel or wrought iron, but it is the most affordable.
Option #3: Design Specialties Aluminum Brookfield Cabinet Corner Fireplace Mesh Door in Black.
Option #4: Design Specialties Aluminum Brookfield Bifold Corner Fireplace Glass Door in Black with Tempered Glass (Only) and Gate Mesh Backup 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.
Option #5: Hand Crafted Pacifico Wrought Iron Cabinet Corner Fireplace Mesh Door in Burnished Natural Iron.
Option #6: Hand Crafted Wrought Iron Bifold Corner Fireplace Glass Door in Burnished Black with Tempered or Ceramic Glass and Heavy Duty Gate Mesh Backup Doors.
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.
