Customer Comments: Looking for a custom screen with doors to fit a large firebox. Larger box shown on photo #1. Black finish. The hearth is a boulder and not even so the screen needs to be able to attach to the firebrick.
Our Comments: We have a variety of ways to make a screen door this large. We also suggest you consider mesh curtains if the doors are too expensive. We are also included a couple unique high-end grates we offer for large fireplaces.
Fireplace Opening: 72 5/8" W (top) x 73 1/8" W (bottom) x 36 1/4" H
The Bar and Mesh is a commonly used type of screen for large fireplaces. For these, we use a special I-Beam and track roller system that can handle the weight of the mesh without sagging over time.
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.
