Glass Door for Fireplace Remodel with Stacked Stone - Project #10354

Customer Comments: Hello. This is a prefab fireplace but it had this old facing on it that is included in the second picture. The total fireplace measurements which includes the black facing is 44W x 32 H. We are remodeling and have removed the paneling that surrounded the fireplace. The fireplace opening measures 36 W x 24 H I would like to find a new facing and doors that can can cover the facing. You can see in the bottoms picture how it was bolted in and how wide the side panels are. Thank you for your help. We are painting the top half and we have a big mantel we wanted to add. Here is a picture of the material we are using. I didn’t want to take any space from the fireplace opening or take as little as possible. We are mounting a TV and with the chunky rock I don’t want the fireplace to look small compared to the rest of the wall so I would like to keep even a few inches of the facing. Thank you for your help.

Our Comments: We have attempted to create what you have described including several different door options. If you have a picture of the mantel you plan on installing as well as the material you plan on using for the hearth and flooring in the room, we may be able to incorporate that into the design as well so you can see your entire finished project.

Glass Door Mesh Options

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.

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.

Tempered Black (Opague)

Tempered 1/2" Bevel

Tempered 1" Bevel

We Need These 2 Photos:

Photo #1: With your camera sideways, take a picture directly in front of the fireplace from far enough away to see the entire fireplace floor to ceiling like this.

Photo #2: With your back to the fireplace, take a picture looking straight out into the room so we can see the decor directly in front of the fireplace.
