Customer Comments: Hi Greg, I'm working on a new build and have 4 fireplaces that need screens. Originally we had wanted to have roller screens, but there is not enough clearance to conceal the housing. And we don't want an exposed valance. We're now leaning towards mesh curtains. I wanted to see if you can make these sizes with the closet mount attachment. And would like to see specs and get quotes. Hoping that the rod can be concealed, but not a lot of space.
Our Comments: After talking over the phone and reviewing all of your documetation, I have come up with the recommendations below. I could not create a mockup for the screened porch due to the angle of the picture. Each of these would use a special bar and mesh with a 1 1/2" wide black header bar. Most of the bar will be covered by the mantel depending on the allotted space. We will be using the Track and Roller System due to the large width and height of the openings.
These grates feature heavy duty 3/4" thick bars for great durability and are available in standard and custom sizes.
These wrought iron grates are hand forged by skilled craftsman at Stone Manufacturing. These are very high end and are custom made to fit almost any size fireplace using 1" bars for extreme durability. See More Custom Grates Here!
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.
