Mesh Curtain Screens

For fireplaces this large we use a curtain screen that has a rigid I-Beam Track with rollers rather than a traditional curtain rod that will sag under the weight of the mesh. Because the bed of ashes tends to build up and spill onto the hearth, we recommend adding a 4" wide bottom bar to keep them at bay. This also allows us to make the mesh 3" sorter so that it does not get caught up and drag through the ashes.

Mesh Curtains

Option #1: Stone Manufacturing C92 Bar and Mesh with I-Beam Track and Rollers and 10" Wand Pulls. Shown installed behind existing 4" wide smoke guard.

Mesh Curtains

Option #2: Stone Manufacturing C92 Bar and Mesh with I-Beam Track and Rollers and 10" Wand Pulls. Shown installed behind existing 4" wide smoke guard with F92 4" Wide Bottom Bar.

Mesh Curtains

Option #3: Stone Manufacturing C92 4" Wide Solid Brass Heard Bar with #52 Egg and Dart Casting Trim and ORN-21 Shell Casting Ornament and French Tassels in Weathered Brass. This would replace the existing smoke guard and use the I-Beam Track and Rollers. We would recommend using the F92 4" wide bottom bar in black to retain the ashes.
