Customer Comments: Hello, Please find attached 3 photographs of our fireplace and living room. The dimensions are: 27 1/4" High and 29 1/2" Wide. We are looking for cabinet style with minimal frame thickness. Steel. No mesh. Clear glass. We would like to stay in the range of $800. Thanks.
Our Comments: Sorry to report, there are no fireplaced doors that meet your needs in the $800 price range. Your fireplace is too small for any standard size doors and the least expensive flat steel custom door is in the $1400.00 price range. With that said, we have created mockups showing the 3 least expensive custom made doors we have available.
Fireplace Opening: 29 1/2" W x 27 1/4" H
Before:
This door is laser cut from 3/16" thick solid steel, which is basically what you are asking for. The frame can be made 1 1/2" or 2" wide.
Option #1: Carolina Twin Fireplace Glass Door in Rustic Black with Clear Glass.
This door is made from 14 gauge steel that is bent to create the frame. It has a depth of 5/8" and a width of 1 1/4". This is the least expensive custom made steel door we have available. The frame is very narrow so it can only overlap the opening about 1/2", which leaves little room for variation in the size of the opening. You cannot burn a fire with the doors closed on this model, so if you are burning wood, you will need mesh curtains behind the glass.
Option #2: Formed Steel 2 Twin Fireplace Door in Matte Black with Clear Glass.
Feature 1: This is how the formed steel door looks at the top
Feature 2: This is how the formed steel door looks at the bottom
Aluminum is an excellent material for fireplace doors because it does not rust and can handle high temperatures when treated with powder coated finishes. It is also the most affordable when it comes to custom doors.
Option #3: Brookfield Alumninum Twin Fireplace Glass Door in Rustic Black with Clear Glass. This door has a 1/2" thick frame that is 2 1/8" wide.

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.
