Customer Comments: I have attached all the pictures I believe would be needed. I want a flat Black matte finish new fireplace to fit the existing brick opening. Glass doors only , no screen mesh. 46" width total outside to outside. 33 1/8" height total outside to outside. There is a brick ledge at the button of the fireplace metal door frame.
Our Comments: Here are some examples of doors with louvers that can be made to overlap the bricks with your zero clearance heat circulating fireplace. The louvers are always open to prevent the fireplace from overheating. The glass doors must be open with the fire is burning. This is particularly important when used with ventless gas logs.
Fireplace Opening: 46" W x 33 1/8" H
Instructions
W1: Smallest width of brick opening:
W2: Width of metal opening
WL: Width of black metal on left side
WR: Width of black metal on right side
H1: Smallest Height from bottom brick ledge to underside of lintel at the top
H2: Height of black metal at the bottom
H3: Height of black metal opening
H4: Height of black metal at top
All measurements need to add up properly:
W1=W2+WL+WR | H1 = H2+H3+H4
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.
