Customer Comments: We prefer the design in this project:(#26) Example #10 (See examples below). Fireplace opening sizes: Height: 26-1/2” Left width top: 20-3/8” Left width bottom: 20-5/8” Right width top: 41-5/8” Right width bottom: 42-1/16”
Our Comments: The Minimal-1 fireplace door you have chosen is a very contemporary look, and a great choice for your beautiful stone fireplace. The only downside is, when buring gas fires, you must open the doors. The Minimal-2 bifold doors will not stick out into the room as much as the cabinet doors, but the cabinet doors look nicer when closed. I have created mockups showing both types.
Gas Log Warning: To prevent the burner and pilot mechanism from overheating causing safety issues, vented gas logs must be burned with glass doors open. The Modern-1 door is an exception to this rule as it can be made with a special Gas Log AirWash system that allows you to close the doors while burning a vented gas logs. Vent Free gas logs cannot have glass doors closed under any circumstances. Read more below.
Fireplace Opening: 42 1/16" W (Front) x 26 1/2" W (Side) x 26 1/2" H
These doors are hand crafted by skilled artisans at Stone Manufacturing from Solid Brass. Featuring 3/8" thick clear tempered glass or ultra-clear low iron glass for an extra touch of elegance. The minimal doors are available with rounded or square hardware and the subframe can match the hardware, or be made in black to allow the hardware to stand out. The door can be made with cabinet or bifold doors. The left side would be a single fixed glass pane.

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.
