Customer Comments: Hello, We just remodeled our downstairs and the only item left to finish is the fireplace. Our contractor will be installing "Pennsylvania Laurel Cavern Ledge" from Stonecraft over our existing red brick fireplace, and we will then we will need to install a new fireplace door: The existing fireplace opening size is 34.5" wide by 24.5" high. We would like the new fireplace door to have glass bi-fold doors with gate mesh doors behind. I do not like the aluminum doors, and while I like the forged steel they are a bit too expensive...therefore, it seems steel doors might suit us best. Would you be able to provide some mockups? Let me know if you need any additional information. Thank you
Our Comments: We created some mockups using the Stonecraft ledger stone to help simulate the finished look. Hope these help.
Fireplace Opening: 34 1/2" W x 24 1/2" H
Before:
Steel doors are more substantial than the less expensive aluminum doors. They are heavy duty and rugged and are more customizable because the frames are laser cut.

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.
