Customer Comments: We had our house built by united built home and they made the hearth really high and it is a small fireplace it is a fireplace insert but I ordered the doors that fit the insert from the company and it will not fit due to the brick hanging low and block the built in door slides. I want wanting the metal frame black or oil rubbed bronze. (that is what the rest of my house is done in.) I would like glass double doors with handles my whole fireplace brick to brick is 49 1/2 inches wide X to the bottom mantle 33 inches L. The fireplace opening measures 32 1/2 inches W X 16 inches L. I am also interested in have the blower with it.
Our Comments: Below are doors that can be made to overlap the bricks covering your zero clearance fireplace. You should burn fires with the glass doors open to prevent the metal fireplace from overheating. I have included options made from various materials and price ranges including aluminum, steel and wrought iron. These are not available in oil rubbed bronze, so I am only showing black. Also, the fireplace is too small for a blower.
Fireplace Opening: 32 1/2" W x 16" H
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.
Option #1: PW Creekside Aluminum Bifold Fireplace Door in Black with Clear Glass and Mesh Curtains.
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.
Option #2: Elegant Steel Bifold Fireplace Door in Black with Clear Glass and Mesh Curtains
Hand crafted doors take on a more rugged natural look for those who appreciate craftsmanship tasteful details. These doors are the most heavy duty made from 3/16" and 1/4" thick solid hand forged wrought iron.
Option #3: Hand Crafted Wrought Iron Fireplace Door in Burnished Black with Clear Glass and Gate Mesh Backup Doors.
Option #4: Summerton Wrought Iron Fireplace Door in Burnished Black with Clear Glass and Gate Mesh Backup Doors.
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.
