Customer Comments: The current cover does not fit our fireplace at all. It looks like it does but all the heat and smoke escaping from the top of the cover has discolored the paint. I would like a black cover prefer non glass and more vintage looking as house was built in 1971. I want screens on the inside as i have kids and cats. I have attached a picture of the issue of it not fitting. Its literally covering the opening on the top at the brick line. Sides seem to cover fine. Current cover measurements are 46 wide (seems to be a good fit) and 33 tall ( does not seem to fit at all to short-heat and smoke escaping).
Our Comments: The examples below can be made with a decorative doors that open with mesh backup doors that can remain closed so you can have a great view of the fire. Or, we can make the doors themselves with wire mesh and they would just remain closed when buring a fire. We have many patterns to choose from, but we will start here to see if this is close to what you like.
Fireplace Opening: 46" W x 33" H (Existing Door Dimensions)
These doors are made from 3/16" thick solid steel with custom laser cut patterns.
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.
