Customer Comments: I’m looking for same two sets for basement and family room. Family Living room Fire place 32.5x22 Small register 6.5x7 (2) Top register 29.75x8.5 Basement Fireplace 34x22 Top regIst 31.25x8.25 Small 6.25x8(2)
Our Comments: Here are some examples of glass doors that can be made with matching vent covers for your Heatilator fireplace.
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.
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.

Before:
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 #1: Design Specialties Stiletto Aluminum Bifold Fireplace Door in Black with Tempered Glass and Mesh Curtains. Shown with Black Steel Vent Covers.
Option #2: PW Crown Aluminum Bifold Fireplace Door in Brushed Steel with Tempered or Ceramic Glass and Mesh Curtains. Shown with Black Steel Vent Covers.
Steel doors are more substantial than the less expensive aluminum doors. They are heavy duty and rugged and are more customizable because the frames are laser cut.
Option #3: PW Elite Steel Fireplace Door in Brushed Nickel with Tempered or Ceramic Glass and Mesh Curtains. Shown with Black Steel Vent Covers.
Option #4: Hearth Creations Flat Steel Fireplace Glass Door in Matte Black with Tempered Glass (Only) and Mesh Curtains. Shown with Black Steel Vent Covers.
These doors are hand crafted by skilled artisans from Solid Brass or Steel, depending on the finish that is desired. Very high end, and very refined. Items made from solid brass come in a wide variety of hand crafted patinas and other finishes. Satin Nickel finishes done on solid brass are the finest quality and will not rust like plated steel.
Option #5: Stone Manufacturing DF1G Solid Brass Bifold Fireplace Door with Gloss Black Outer Frame and Polished Nickel Half Round Doors. Shown with Matching Vent Covers.

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.
