Customer Comments: Hi there! We live in Kansas City, but a google search led me to you and so I'm seeking your advice. We just purchased a mid century modern home with a brick see through fireplace with no hearth at all. It is gas with little glass pieces but entirely exposed. We have an idea for making it grandbaby and puppy safe. Would it be feasible to somehow attach a piece of ceramic glass or tempered glass to each side, right on to the brick, that is just like a foot or so high but open above it and permanent, as in not one that opens and closes. We could still start the fireplace and use it from both sides but protect the littles. Thoughts or advice is welcome!!
Our Comments: We have the perfect solution. We can provide a glass guard made from 3/8" thick tempered glass that has 1 1/4" Channel Feet that can be mounted to the bricks with "L" brackets on the back side of the feet. We have created mockups showing it in 8", 10" and 12" heights with black, satin nickel and weathered brass feet. These can be made with typical clear glass or Starphire ultra-clear low-iron glass.
