Customer Comments: Hi Greg! We have a patio gas fireplace that measures 3'-0" wide x 2'-5 1/4" tall. There is a stone wall beneath the insert that measure 1'-3/4" from the decking.
I am interested in a custom laser-cut, flat freestanding screen that will add some flavor to the patio. Our patio furniture will be a modern, flat black metal frame with off-white cushions. The louvered shutters are flat black also. Any ideas you might suggest are welcome. Thanks!
Our Comments: Here are 3 types of screens that are great for fireplaces raised in the wall like yours. The first two can be made by two different manufacturers. The high end company uses a stainless steel wire mesh, while the lesser uses stainless steel perforated mesh. Wire mesh is preferable because it is much easier to see through. I will price them for you both ways when I email you the quote. These are not laser cut, but we will discuss that further.
Fireplace Opening: 36" W x " 40" H (from floor)
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.
