Glass Doors for Hole in the Wall Fireplace - Project #11569

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
