Customer Comments: My project: I will be covering over the hole on the right and then leveling the entire bottom section with backer board and then stacked stone will be installed over all existing brick. The hearth will be covered with some sort of tile. There is a ledge just above the fireplace opening that jets out about 1/2 inch (ledge is approximately 29" from hearth). I was thinking the door height should probably be less than 29" so it could be installed under this ledge against the bricks and then Stack the stone around new doors. Thinking doors in some sort of brown tone. Any install advice Or ideas are appreciated. Thanks.

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.
