Our Comments: The fireplace is being remodeled with stacked stone replacing the current rock. Here are some examples of how that might look with glass doors and a steel mantel. The stacked stone can cover most of the black metal, but there are some air vents at the bottom of the opening that cannot be covered. We show how those can be accommodated.
Fireplace Opening: 36 1/2" W x 21" H
Before:
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.

Option #1: Hearth Creations Profile 4 Overlap Fitting Aluminum Door with Matte Black Frame and Brite Nickel Doors and Handles (brushed aluminum). Brushed Stainless Steel Shelf 72" W x 5" H x 8" Deep. Shown with black metal exposed.
Option #2: Design Specialties Stiletto Fireplace Glass Door with Steel Mantel in Rustic Black. Shown with black metal exposed.
Option #3: Design Specialties Stiletto Fireplace Glass Door with Steel Mantel in Rustic Black. Shown with black metal covered with stacked stone except for vent at bottom.
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.

Option #5: Design Specialties Legend ZC Deluxe Fireplace Glass Door. Made to cover all of the black metal with slots at the bottom.
