Customer Comments: I would like to get an estimate and ideas for a glass screen with black iron. My home is a very small cottage (1932) so it's a bit difficult to get the angles you want because there is not a lot of space from wall to wall. I hope these help. If not, I can try again!
Our Comments: Here are some examples of glass doors made to fit your fireplace in your cozy cottage. We recommend a frame that is roughtly 3" wide on the sides and 4" to 5" wide at the top to help cover the irretularities. To get a better seale, you can backfill the gaps between the frame and the stones from inside the fireplace with mortar once the door is installed.
Fireplace Opening: 41" W x 31" H
Before:
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.

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.
