Customer Comments: I am looking for fireplace curtain with top bar in satin nickel or brushed nickel. I do not want doors. I do not want the finish to be shiny. On your web site it looks like steel metallic finish is what I’m looking for. I don’t want it to have a gold cast but more gray to match the stone. I can’t tell exactly which of your finishes is the less shiny, satin or brushed or even pewter. On the web site they all look so similar. My husband discussed the curtain option with you but I am now trying to determine which finish we want. Black curtain. The opening is 34x29. It would be an inside mount. Thanks for your assistance.
Our Comments: I believe Pewter would be your best choice. It is a dull silver finish. Satin Nickel, although not a polished finish, is a brushed finish with more sheen. We have created mockups showing the 4 different ways an attached sliding mesh curtain can be made.
Fireplace Opening: 34 " W x 29" H
There are 4 ways to do sliding mesh curtains. Header bar, header bar and fender, 3-sided frame and 4-sided frame. Those that have a bar across the bottom prevent logs from rolling out as the mesh will hit the bottom bar instead of the mesh just pushing open.
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.
