Customer Comments: Hi, I am looking for a custom L shaped screen with doors or glass doors to protect our house when using the fireplace. Please see photos and measurements below. Thank you.
Our Comments: You are somewhat limited with the doors you can intall on this fireplace due to the raised brick on the left side and the scroll piece at the corner. The Stiletto door from Design Specialties is the best solution since it can be made to fit inside the fireplace with a 1" projection past the opening and still clear the corner scroll. It is also the least expensive custom door for a corner fireplace. It would be made to butt against the left and right sides and fit under the lintel. We can make it fit somewhat tight on the sides, but would recommend leaving a 1/4" gap at the top to ensure it fits under any irregularities. You can fill the gap with mortar. There are others that are less ideal which we can discuss further over the phone if need be.
Fireplace Opening: 42 1/2" W (left) x 24" W (right) x 30 5/8" H
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: Design Specialties Stiletto Corner Fireplace Glass Door in Rustic Black with Bifold Door doors on the left side and a folding cabinet door on the right.
Option #2: Design Specialties Stiletto Corner Fireplace Glass Door in Rustic Black with Bifold Door doors on the left side and a folding cabinet door on the right. Shown with gate mesh backup doors.
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.

Photo #1: With your camera sideways, take a picture directly in front of the fireplace from far enough away to see the entire fireplace floor to ceiling like this.

Photo #2: With your back to the fireplace, take a picture looking straight out into the room so we can see the decor directly in front of the fireplace.
