Customer Comments: Looking to replace a 25 year old set of gas logs
Our Comments: It looks likey our current log set is 36" wide. I believe a 30" log set would look more comfortable inside your fireplace, which leaves a little room for some andirons to balance things out and help hide the controls. My recommendation is the new Lava Series gas logs that have burners built into the logs so flames come out of the logs themselves. There are also some flame enhanced logs that look fantastic. The mockups below should help you choose.
*Half Price Closeout Specials: These are rare items from Stone Manufacturing that were discontinued just before they sold their business. I purchased everything they had in stock and am selling them at half price while supplies last. See More: Fireplace Accessory Closeout Specials!

Option #1A: Grand Canyon 36 Inch Lava Gas Logs with GloFire Technology. These are the only logs on the market with burners cast inside the logs so flames come directly out of the logs themselves. They are by far the most realistic gas logs on the market, but also one of the most expensive.
Option #1B: Grand Canyon 30 Inch Lava Gas Logs with GloFire Technology. Shown with 1P10M Solid Brass Fireplace Screen in Antique Pewter and Matching Half Price Closeout Special* AR-AN15 Bonaparte Antique Reproduction Andirons.

These rare discontinued items were acquired from Stone Manufacturing by Fireplace Treatments when they closed down their Gardena manufacturing facility. They are being sold at half price while supplies last. Most of these items have only 1 or 2 left, so you can be one of the last people in the USA to own one of these rare gems.

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.
