Customer Comments: Hi, Here are my fireplace photos. It measures as 26.5" W x 27.75" H. I like the finish to be dull antique nickel. Thanks.
Our Comments: We do not have a finish specifically named antique nickel, so we are presenting mockups of fireplace doors made from various materials in finishes similar to Antique Nickel.
Fireplace Opening: 26 1/2" W x 27 3/4" H
Before:
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.
Option #1: Hearth Creations Profile 4 Narrow Frame Fireplace Glass Door in Antique Gray.
Option #2: Design Specialties Brookfield Fireplace Glass Door in Natural Iron Powder Coat. This is a slightly textured finish, not brushed.
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.
Option #3: Design Specialties Legend Fireplace Glass Door in Brushed Pewter.
Option #3B: Design Specialties Legend in Brushed Pewter shown with a collage of Antique Nickel items found on the web.
Option #4: Hearth Creations Flat Steel Door in Antique Steel
Option #5: Hearth Creations Industrial Age 2 Door in Antique Gray
These doors are hand crafted by skilled artisans from Solid Brass or Steel, depending on the finish that is desired. Very high end, and very refined. Items made from solid brass come in a wide variety of hand crafted patinas and other finishes. Satin Nickel finishes done on solid brass are the finest quality and will not rust like plated steel.
Option #6: Stone Manufacturing DF1G Solid Brass Fireplace Door in Light Antique Pewter. This is the same door we presented originally but in a lighter finish.
Option #7: Stone Manufacturing DF1G Solid Brass Fireplace Door in Oil Rubbed Steel. This is the original mockup we provided that you deemed as "a little harsh".
Here are a variety of silver/gray toned finishes from the 3 manufacturers represented on this page. Refer to the manufacturer in the mockups above to determine the finishes available respectively below.

Finishes #3 - Stone Manufacturing Silver/Gray Tone Finishes (on Solid Brass)

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.
