Custom Fireplace Glass Doors - Project #20253

Customer Comments: Want something like Option #5 from Project #20226.

Our Comments: I have created mockups showing how the door you like would look. Keep in mind that your fireplace is a metal prefabricated fireplace while the example you presented is a masonry fireplace, so there is a difference in what doors can and cannot work. I presented several other less expensive options in case the sliding doors are beyond your budget.

High End Sliding Doors

These doors are made to overlap the tile opening. The outer two panes are fixed while the inner panes slide left and right to open and close. The frame has 1/4" standoffs on the back of the frame to allow air to flow into the fireplace and prevent overheating.

Sliding Door

Example from Project #20226. Stone Manufacturing SD Sliding Fireplace Door in Flat Black with Clear Glass and Waterfall Handles. Shown with Grand Canyon 36" Lava Series Gas Logs. These logs have burners inside the logs so flames actually come out of the logs, making them the most realistic gas logs on the market.

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. Heavy Gauge aluminum doors are easily installed with pressure screws, no drilling required. Lightweight aluminum doors require drilling holes in the metal fireplace for mounting brackets.

Stiletto

Option #1: Design Specialties Stiletto Lightweight Aluminum Fireplace Glass Door in Rustic Black with Clear Glass.

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.
