Glass Doors for U-Shaped Fireplace Raised In The Wall - Project #11694

Customer Comments: I would like a glass enclosure with a door for this fireplace

Our Comments: Here is a variety of options for you. Each of these can have operable doors or fixed glass panes on the sides. Keep in mind that with gas logs, you must have the glass doors open at lest on the front side. That means the doors will stand out in the traffic way. The Sliding door option is the best since the doors do not stick out when opened.

Fireplace Opening: 33" W (front) x 21" W (sides) x 27 3/8" H

Before:

Affordable Aluminum Doors

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.

Stiletto
Stiletto Fireplace Door Option #2: Design Specialties Stiletto Cutback Multi-Sided Fireplace Glass Door in Rustic Black. This door will fit inside the opening and overlap the lintel 1/8".

Medium Range Steel Doors

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.

Legend

High End Hand Crafted Solid Brass

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.

Glass Door Mesh Options

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.
