Customer Comments: Hi, We bought a house recently and looking to get a custom size door just because I don't think that one of the standard ones can fit. There are some bricks sticking out on the top of the fireplace and height clearance for the frame is 27 1/4". The opening itself is 34 1/2" x 27". I am looking for something like this (Link to Brookfield Glass Door): with a frame size of about 2", black with clear glass doora and mesh doors.
Our Comments: The Brookfield is a good choice for your fireplace. We included a few other options as well that you might even like better. We will need to make the door about 1/4" smaller than the lowest height beneath the metal lintel supporting the bricks at the top of the opening. You will need to find the very lowest point and measure to the nearest 1/16".
Fireplace Opening: 34 1/2" W x 27" H
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.
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.
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.
