Glass Doors for L-Shaped Corner Stone Fireplace - Project #20521

Customer Comments: I have a customer looking for glass fireplace doors. I attached some photos for your reference. The front is 54 1/2" and the return is 18", the height is 39 1/2". please feel free to contact me with any question. The framing should be black.

Our Comments: We can have the doors made from aluminum or solid steel. The frame must fit inside the opening with aluminum and can fit inside or outside with steel. The posts are in the way and will prevent the frame from fitting completely inside. The right hand post has a plinth that sticks out beyond the stone, so the frame must fit underneath that.

Tempered vs Ceramic Glass: Tempered glass can handle sustained temperatures up to about 450F without breaking from heat and should be at least 8” from the flames. Ceramic glass can handle temperatures up to about 1450F and can have direct contact with the flames. If you wish to burn fires with the doors closed, I highly recommend upgrading to ceramic glass.

Fireplace Opening: 54 1/2" W (Right Side) x 18" W (Left Side) x 39 1/2" 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.

Heavy Duty Steel Doors

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. This door can be made to fit inside or overlap the fireplace. It can also be made with ceramic glass, which is recommended if you plan on burning fires with the doors closed.

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.
