Mesh Doors for Raised Fireplace - Project #11448

Customer Comments: Hello I'm interested in designing screen doors or curtains for my gas fireplace opening. The design that I'm looking for is one where the screens doors or curtains are on a metal frame on all four sides. The color should be flat black. Please note that the fireplace is a wood burning fireplace that was converted by using a gas insert.

Our Comments: We have several manufacturers that can make what you are asking for from various materials and quality. Here are some examples.

Fireplace Opening: 40" W x 30" H

Before:

Affordable Aluminum Doors

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.

Medium Range Steel Doors

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.

High End Hand Crafted Steel Doors

These doors are hand crafted using superior materials including solid brass latches for superior action and durability. They also have a Pseudo Clearview option with a less noticeable center frame and fine weave mesh to maximize the view of the fire.
