Bench Fender for Traditional Fireplace in Kitchen - Project #21449

Customer Comments: Bench with nailhead leather cushion top color tbd. Fireplace opening is almost square at 31” H and 30” W. Edge to edge on mantle is 65”. Obviously in our kitchen.

Our Comments: Here's how the bench fender will look with black leather. I included two additional mockups showing options for a full traditional fireplace treatment with appropriate accessories to complete the look. Typically, the base of the fender is made to the size of the hearth as I have illustrated.

*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!

Fireplace Opening: 30" W x 31" H

Glass Door Mesh Options

If you are planning on burning anything in your fireplace, you need gate mesh backup doors or mesh curtains behind the glass so you can burn a fire with the doors open. 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.

Glass Options

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.
