Customer Comments: Looking for something simple, plain, with a small frame. Inset and not thick depth wise Must have mesh doors.
Our Comments: We have provided several examples of simple doors that are popular on ledger stone. The Stiletto is made of aluminum and is less expensive. The Legend is laser cut from 3/16" solid steel and is more heavy duty. The Madrid is far from what you asked for, but it seems to be very popular on fireplaces like yours, so we included it. THe Madrid is hand forged steel. We would make any of these doors with a 1/4" gap around the top and each side to fit inside the opening comfortably. The gap would then be filled with mortar. As far as the depth, each of these doors has a subframe that extends back into the opening about 1 1/2". This will make it easier to apply the mortar and adds to the stability/rigidity of the door frame.

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.
