Customer Comments: The measurements are 46" X 46" and I would like the Carolina with doors in black (free standint)! Thanks
Our Comments: The Carolina free standing screen doors have a size limit of 40" x 30". Anything over that must have a fixed panel for both width and height as shown in the mockup below. For fireplaces this large, you are going to need a screen that attaches to the opening, otherwise, it will be very unstable when the doors are opened. Free standing screens this large will always feel a bit "Rickety" when you open the doors even when they are attached. We recommend actual doors that attach to the fireplace without feet for a much more solid feel.
Fireplace Opening: 46" W x 46" H
Before:
Due to the large size, these screens will be completely unstable when you open the doors, so you will need to attach them to the fireplace. Even then, they will have somewhat of a "Rickety" feel to them, but they will be functional. The Carolina door cannot be attached, but will operate due to the limited size doors.
Option #1: Design Specialties Carolina Free Standing Screen Door with Fixed End Panels and Top Panel in Rustic Black.
Option #2: Hearth Creations Traditional Free Standing Screen Door with 2 1/2" Frame and Standard Feet in Matte Black. This screen comes with options for attaching it to the fireplace at the top for stability.
These doors do not have feet and are attached to the fireplace for much more solid and stable operation. They will not feel "Rickety" when you open and close the doors.
Option #3: Design Specialties Carolina Cabinet Door with Mesh Instead of Glass in Rustic Black.
Option #4: Hearth Creations Iron Age 2 Mesh Door with Hammered Frame in Matte Black.
Option #5: Stone Manufacturing WI-DF1M Wrought Iron Screen Door with Partial Scroll, Fleur De Lis Handle Back and Rivets in Natural Iron with Weathered Brass Handles.
Option #6: Stone Manufacturing WI-DF1M Wrought Iron Screen Door with Partial Scroll and Rivets Flat Black with Weathered Brass Handles.
Option #7: Stone Manufacturing DF1M Steel Screen Door with Hammered Texture and Rivets in Flat Black with Weathered Brass Handles.

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.
Scale & Finish Disclaimer: Mockups shown on this site are not necessarily to scale and are meant to help you choose the style of your screen or door. The appearance of finishes represented may vary between digital monitors and screens. I do my best to recommend finishes that I believe will blend with your decor and flatter your fireplace. You can view finish options here:

Samples for some finishes are available upon request.
"I have a passion for designing custom fireplace treatments, and have been doing so for over 35 years. The designs I create are not only tailored to fit perfectly, but fashioned to compliment your room decor and turn your fireplace into a tastefully finished focal point. Take advantage of my Free Design Service and let me show you the possibilities." Here are just a few reasons why you might consider buying from me:
Greg Tillotson (Owner/Designer)
Picture #1: With your camera sideways, take a picture directly in front of the fireplace from far enough away to see the entire fireplace floor to ceiling like this.
|
 Picture #2: With your back to the fireplace, take a picture looking straight out into the room so we can see the decor directly in front of the fireplace.
|
Please remove all objects from in front of the fireplace opening before you take your pictures (existing screen, plants or anything else). If you have an existing glass door, take pictures with the doors open and closed.
Once I recieve your pictures, I will create several mockups and post them to a project page and send you a link to view and them with others for their input. I will follow up with you to discus your project, quote prices and help you choose the treatment that suits you best.
