Customer Comments: I believe I need a custom screen made for my fireplace. Attached is a picture of my fireplace. The main opening is 46 inches. The bench is 14 inches making the entire opening 60. There are protruding bricks on each side so the width cannot go over 50 inches unless it doesn’t touch sides (sits back). The height of the opening is 34 inches. I prefer a clean modern look. A silver or black finish is my preference. I will be burning wood so I need sparks to be controlled.
Our Comments: We can make a fireplace door or bar and mesh for your fireplace. If we do a door, you can overlap the bricks, but you would need to chisel the protruding bricks and then repaint them. We can make the door fit inside, but measuring will be critical and we will leave a 1/4" to 1/2" gap around the frame that will need to be filled with mortar. We have created examples of each case. The fireplace door on the right can be a fixed piece of glass or an operable door.
Fireplace Opening: 60" W x 34" H
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.
