Custom Fireplace Glass Doors - Project #20518

Customer Comments: Hello, I purchased a house that I am renovating and will re sell. I am looking for an inexpensive fireplace doors. My opening is 20 inches high and 34 inches wide. I wanted to get a price for fireplace doors in black. Thank You.

Our Comments: The size of your fireplace is too short for any of the inexpensive stock size doors, so you will need to have them custom made. I included 3 of the least expensive custom made doors that are available. I will need the minimum and maxium width and height of the opening to make the doors. Please see the measuring instructions below.

Fireplace Opening: 34" W x 20" H

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.

Measuring Instructions

Because the opening is irregular, we need to find the smallest width and height and the largest width and height to cover the crevices in the stones. To do this, we recommend you use a level to mark the lines shown in the diagram below. The light blue is the smallest width and height, the red is the largest width and height. The purple is the distance from the hearth to the point where the smallest height was taken. The Orange D is how far back the inner bricks are on the sides. Mesh curtains and gate mesh can extend up to 3" from the back of the door, so this is important if you want mesh.

W1: Smallest Width
W2: Largest Width
H1: Smallest Height
H2: Largest Height
H3: Height from Hearth
D: Depth from front to inner bricks

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.
