Customer Comments: Fireplace has problems with smoke. Would like to match the detail of the window example if possible.
Our Comments: Here are two concepts that will work for your fireplace. Because fireplace doors have a subframe, we must make the frame wide enough on the bottom and sides for the subframe to clear the bottom bricks and side tiles. If we make the doors rectangular, the outer frame will act like a smoke guard by reducing the opening size. If you wish to burn fires with the doors closed, we can add Ceramic Glass to the wrought iron door which can handle temperatures up to 1400F, which is sufficient.
Fireplace Opening: Unknown
Before:
Steel doors are more substantial than the less expensive aluminum doors. They are heavy duty and rugged and are more customizable because the frames are laser cut.

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.
