Custom Fireplace Glass Doors - Project #20115

Customer Comments: Hi, We are looking for a quote for a custom glass fireplace cover for our gas fireplace. We'd like a modern, mostly glass cover with black metal accents. It's mostly to keep the cats out but we'd like the added insulation too. Open to creative ideas as well! We'd of course need it to be able to be opened. The fireplace is 58 inches wide by 27.5 inches tall. There is a metal lip over the top lengthwise of about 5 inches (this height is included in the 27.5 inches tall). We live in Kansas City.

Our Comments: Here are some examples of simple glass doors that are suitable for your fireplace in a variety of price ranges. You should burn your gas logs with the doors open and close them only when the logs are off.

Fireplace Opening: 58" W x 27 1/2" H

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.

Savannah

Stiletto

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.
