Glass Doors for Red Brick Heatilator Fireplace - Project #11428

Customer Comments: Our fireplace does not have a real screen cover, the one we have is just a stand alone and does not completely cover width of fireplace opening. Dimensions of the opening are: 41-1/2" (W) and 28-1/2" (H); it is a true Heatalator Fireplace installed in 1975 (we were told this by the contractor we hired to clean out the flue, recap the top of the chimney and inspect and paint the firebox 5+ years ago). We want doors that completely cover the opening (our flue is slightly rusted "open"/will not completely close, so insects/flies from our horse farm come in when fireplace is not in use). Our home is rustic with silver on light fixtures and fans, we prefer the black accessories and trim for our fireplace. We want glass doors with mesh screens behind. Please provide recommendations/suggestions and pricing

Our Comments: Here are some mockups that should be helpful. We have included some NEW doors that are Horse related that also might interest you. Hope this helps.

Fireplace Opening: 41 1/2" W x 28 1/2" H
