Screens for Raised Stone Fireplace Opening - Project #21394

Customer Comments: I’m looking for a simple flat rectangular steel mesh screen, approximately 46" wide × 30" high, in a dark iron or matte black finish. My fireplace opening is 42" wide. The stone ledge beneath the opening rises 6.5" above the hearth, so conventional rear feet would prevent the screen from sitting close to the stone. I saw the Stone Manufacturing 1P30M in Option #4 of your Project #20617, described as resting against the fireplace without rear stabilizers. Could you confirm whether that arrangement would work safely with my stone surround? Please provide a ballpark price for the simplest version, including shipping, and let me know what additional measurements you need. Thank you!

Our Comments: If you remove the rear feet, the screen will stand flat against the fireplace, but when set it aside to attend the fire, it will not stand on its own, you must lean it against something. This is not the most convenient option if you use the fireplace often. Below are some other options I recommend such as bowed screens and spark guards or attached mesh doors. Also, take note of where the gas valve cover is. It may be in the way of the single panel screens.

Bowed Screens and Spark Guards

Bowed screens and spark guards are a great alternative for firelaces raised in the wall. They stand on their own without the need for rear feet, making them more convenient to set aside when tending the fire.
