Customer Comments: Looking for Bi-Fold Doors with Sliding Screen
Our Comments: Here are some ideas for you. Looking at the stones around the fireplace, it looks like the stone on the upper left side sticks out quite a bit more than the other stones, so this may be an issue. We can make the door frames overlap the opening up to that stone, make them fit inside and fill the gaps with mortar, or use a door with a wider frame and overlap all the stones. We have created examples of all 3 types.
Fireplace Opening: 32" W x 25" 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: Design Specialties Stiletto Fireplace Glass Door in Rustic Black. Shown as an inside fit.
Option #2: Design Specialties Brookfield Fireplace Glass Door in Rustic Black. Shown overlapping up to the top left stone.
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 #3: Design Specialties Carolina Window Pane Fireplace Glass Door in Rustic Black. Shown as an inside fit.
Hand crafted doors take on a more rugged natural look for those who appreciate craftsmanship tasteful details.
Option #4: Hearth Creations Iron Age 2 Fireplace Glass Door with Hammered Texture in Matte Black. Shown overlapping the stones up to the upper left stone.
Option #5: Hearth Creations Iron Age 4 Fireplace Glass Door with Straps and Rivets Brushed Black. Shown as an inside fit.
Option #6: Hearth Creations Iron Age 6 Fireplace Glass Door with Wrought Iron Detail in Antique Gray. This door has a 4" wide frame and is shown overlapping all of the stones.
These doors are hand crafted by skilled artisans from Solid Brass or Steel, depending on the finish that is desired. Very high end, and very refined. Items made from solid brass come in a wide variety of hand crafted patinas and other finishes. Satin Nickel finishes done on solid brass are the finest quality and will not rust like plated steel.
Option #7: Stone Manufacturing HYBRID-2 Bifold Fireplace Glass Door in Pewter. This door fits inside and has no frame on the sides.

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.
