Custom Screens for Gothic Arched Fireplace Mantel - Project #11541

Customer Comments: Good evening, I'm looking to receive a quote for a custom fireplace screen. The dimensions of the fireplace opening are 42" high and 53" wide. I'd like a black screen and would like to see what you'd recommend for either a single panel or three panel design. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you!

Our Comments: Here are some options to consider. We included andirons and tools with some of the mockups as they are typically used with a Tudor style mantel like yours.

Fireplace Opening: 53" W x 42" H

Glass Door Mesh Options

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.

No Mesh

Gate Mesh Backup Doors

Mesh Curtains

Glass Options

Tempered vs Ceramic Glass: Tempered glass can handle sustained temperatures up to about 450F without breaking from heat and should be at least 8" from the flames. Ceramic glass can handle sustained temperatures up to about 1450F and be in direct contact with the flames. If you wish to burn fires with the doors closed, I highly recommend upgrading to ceramic glass. Ceramic glass is $800-$2000 more than tempered glass depending on the manufacturer.

Not all doors are available with all of these glass options.

Ceramic

Tempered Clear

Tempered Gray

Tempered Bronze
