Customer Comments: We would like a fireplace screen for this opening with doors. Black with mesh screen. The chairs will be turned around once the weather is colder. They are presently facing the pool.
Our Comments: Outdoor fireplaces require screens made from materials that can withstand the elements such as Stainless Steel, Solid Brass or Zinc Coated Wrought Iron. Here are examples of all 3 materials.
Inside Fit vs Overlap Fit: If we make the frame overlap the stones, there will be gaps between the back of the frame and the stones due to the uneven surface. Using a wider frame can help minimize seeing into the fireplace in those gaps. When doing an inside fit, you will want to fill the gaps with mortar.

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.
