Customer Comments: I would like a screen that is matte black, modern looking but plain. The fireplace is approx 33” high and 76” wide.
Our Comments: Here are a few screens that can be made to fit your fireplace. All of these can be made in black, but may be shown in other finishes that compliment the stone.
*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. See More: Fireplace Accessory Closeout Specials!
Fireplace Opening: 76" W x 33" H
Before:
These screens are made from 3/16" thick solid steel and are the most affordable for a plain single panel fireplace screen.
Option #1: Hearth Creations Steel Single Panel Screen in Black with Perforated Mesh. Read about perforated mesh below.
Option #2: Stone Manufacturing 1P30M Steel Single Panel Fireplace Screen with Heavy Duty Flat Wire Mesh in Black.
These screens are hand forged by a blacksmith from heavy duty 1/4" thick wrought iron. They have a forged texture that adds character for those who appreciate hand craftmanship.
Option #3: Stone Manufacturing WI-1P30M Contemporary Wrought Iron Single Panel Fireplace Screen with Heavy Duty Flat Wire Mesh in Oil Rubbed Steel. Shown with Closeout Special* WI-AN3 Spearhead Andirons.
Option #4: Stone Manufacturing WI-1P30M Wrought Iron Single Panel Fireplace Screen with Dome Top Rivets and Heavy Duty Flat Wire Mesh in Oil Rubbed Steel. Shown with Closeout Special* WI-AN3 Spearhead Andirons.
Option #5: Stone Manufacturing WI-1P30M Wrought Iron Single Panel Fireplace Screen with Scroll Feet, Twist Handles and Hammered Edges and Heavy Duty Flat Wire Mesh in Black.
Solid brass has some characteristics you cannot get from steel or wrought iron. In this case, the chiseled texture and rope casting options are quite unique.
Option #6: Stone Manufacturing 1P20M Solid Brass Chiseled Single Panel Fireplace Screen with Heavy Duty Flat Wire Mesh in Black.
Option #7: Stone Manufacturing 1P33M Solid Brass Single Panel Fireplace Screen with #33 Rope Casting Trim and Heavy Duty Flat Wire Mesh in Black.
Mesh curtains are a very traditional fireplace treatment that is both functional and convenient to use. These high-end screens have a special "Track and Roller System" that always glides smoothly and does not bind over the years like less expensive versions that have a steel curtain rod. You can have them made with just the top bar, top and bottom bar, or a full framed screen. The bottom bar and fully framed versions help prevent logs and ashes from rolling out of the fireplace onto the hearth.
Option #8: High-End Sliding Mesh Curtains with Track and Roller System in Black
Wire mesh is most commonly used because it is easy to see through and does not blocks less heat. Perforated mesh is very rigid and sturdy, but it is a bit harder to see through and tends to block more heat. I only recommend perforated mesh for larger fireplace screens that would otherwise require horizontal support bars when made with wire mesh. Horizontal support bars tend to change the look of a screen and obstruct the view of the fire, so they may be less desireable than perforated mesh.

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.
