Screen Doors for Farmhouse Fireplace - Project #11348

Customer Comments: Hi, We have a larger fireplace so we need a custom screen. I've attached images of our fireplace. The opening is 47 3/8 inches by 28 9/10 inches. We would like a screen that has a door to make it easier to put firewood in. We want it to cover the opening completely. We live in New England country so we would like something that would match that and somewhat farmhouse. I saw a design with pine trees on that we liked. Very Respectfully.

Our Comments: We can make a free standing screen with doors for your fireplace, but given the large size it will not be particularly stable. For this reason, we recommend having a door made that actually attaches to the fireplace so it will be rigid. We have created mockups so you can see the difference between the two types.

Free Standing Screen Doors

Free standing screens with doors will be somewhat unstable in this size. In cases like this, the manufacturer provides a clamp that attaches to the lintel to hold the screen to the fireplace for stability.

Glass Door Mesh Options

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.
