Customer Comments: This is a see through isokern fireplace so we need two doors. The side with the grey stone slab surface (first set of 3 pictures) has an opening that measures 40-3/4 inches wide by 32-1/2 inches high. The side with the stacked stone surface (second set of 3 pictures) has an opening that measures 41-1/2 inches wide by 33 inches high. We want a contemporary or modern look. Sleek, simple minimized framing. Cabinet doors each side. A screen mesh. The finishes should be pewter/brushed nickel or similar. Brookfield, Shadow, Legend seem likely candidates for style.
Our Comments: Due to the irregularities in the surface of the stone veneer, this side of your fireplace will require the doors to fit inside the opening. We would leave a gap of about 1/4" on the top and each side from the narrowest width and height measurements. The gap will need to be filled with mortar as shown in our examples. Here is a link to view the same doors on the other side of your fireplace: Project #10188
Fireplace Opening:
Side 1: 40 3/4" W x 31 10/2" H
Side 2: 41 1/2" W x 33" H (this side)
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.
