Customer Comments: Hi, I wanted to get a fireplace door made. I've attached a few photos of some I've seen on your site and one I found at a local fireplace shop (but its the wrong size). I'm not settled on any of these but just included to show you what I like. I have also attached a photo of our newly renovated fireplace. I'm thinking of Black frame for the doors because we have black tables and handles on our cabinets. I would like a small lip overlapping the penny tile (1/2" +-) to avoid having to grout in the frame. Initial measurements are 28 1/4" x 42", I will confirm with more accuracy prior to ordering.
Our Comments: We have created mockups showing most of the doors you liked plus some others that we recommend for your application. The Sliding Doors are a great choice for a fireplace raised in the wall if you will be burning gas, so we included that option.
Fireplace Opening: 42" W x 28 1/4" 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.

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.
