Customer Comments: Custom fireplace hanging screen
Our Comments: Here are some examples for treating your beautiful fireplace with a hanging mesh curtain screen.
Fireplace Opening: 47 1/2" W x 58" H (including 4" wide smoke guard)
Before:
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.
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.
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.
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.
This is a picture of the I-Beam track system.

If you are planning on burning anything in your fireplace, you need to have mesh behind the glass so you can burn a fire with the doors open. You can chooe between gate mesh backup doors and sliding mesh curtains. Functionally, gate mesh performs the best as the wire has smaller holes that sparks cannot get through. Aesthetically, mesh curtains may be preferred because they do not have a vertical center frame that obstructs the view of the fire. When you are not using the fire or you want a complete unobstructed view, they do not stick out like gate mesh doors when they are opened.
We are showing these options on a flat steel bifold door with a satin brass overlay and gray glass.
