Customer Comments: Basically there is a fireplace cover on the fireplace, but the doors are missing. So I'd like to add a cover with doors, but it seems like it would be a total pain to take the old cover off here and might mess up the masonry pretty bad. Do you offer adding one on top with magnets? We generally like pretty modern/rustic styles. Neutral color. Black or dark grey generally.
Our Comments: We can have a door made that fits over the existing door and attaches with Magnets (See Option #1). However, it complicates issues and requires customizations that make the door more expensive, but less attractive and less functional. We highly recommend removing the existing door and fitting a new one inside and believe it will give you a much better finished look and functionality. We can discuss this further over the phone.

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.
