Glass Doors for Large Red Brick Fireplace - Project #11468

Customer Comments: Looking for a glass fireplace door for our fireplace. Preferably steel. Not bi-fold.

Our Comments: If you wish to burn a fire with the doors closed, you will need bifold doors or ceramic glass. Bifold doors are a lot less expensive and worth your consideration, so we have included a couple options.

Fireplace Opening: 48 1/4" W x 32 3/4" H

Stone Manufacturing - Solid Brass

These are ultra-high-end doors made from solid brass. We have chosen these doors to compliment your black with brass pilgrim fireplace tools. These can be made with a wide variety of decorative trim patterns and finishes shown at the bottom of this page. This is the only fireplace door manufacturer that uses solid brass components. Ceramic glass is not an option and these doors must be burned open except when starting a fire or when the fire is dying out.

Stone Manufacturing Wrought Iron

These doors are hand forged by a Blacksmith with characteristics you cannot get from flat steel and has a distinct texture to it that is a result of the forging process. The scrollwork comes in a wide variety of patterns and can be customized to your taste. These examples also show an exclusive "Mesh in Front of Glass" feature only offered by Stone Manufacturing. Adding a wire mesh in front of the glass takes away the reflection giving it a softer less modern look that is more in line with their style. You still get the functionality of the glass doors blocking cold air from coming into your home, but it does not look like a glass door. These are very expensive. Ceramic glass is not an option, so you must burn them with the doors open.
