Curtain Screens

Large fireplaces like this are made with an I-Beam track instead of a standard curtain rod (see example below). The first option shows a basic bar and mesh. The second shows the same with a bottom bar to help prevent logs from rolling out onto the hearth by blocking the mesh curtains. You can also add a "Pet Deterrent Channel" to the bottom bar to make it difficult for small children and pets to push the mesh inwards and get into the fireplace. The third option has a 4 sided frame made specifically to coordinate with the andirons. This also can have the pet deterrent channel.

I-Beam Example

The I-Beam track system is designed specifically for large fireplaces. This mechanism does not sag over time like a typical curtain rod and allows the mesh to slide easily across the track.
