Screens for Large Arched Fireplace with Transitional Mantel Surround - Project #20814

Customer Comments: Would like a black fireplace screen, free standing to be put in front of this fireplace. The opening is just shy of 58".

Our Comments: Below are some screens that can be made to fit your beautiful fireplace. Keep in mind that a free standing screen will need to be moved away from the fireplace when tending the fire and cannot be set on the carpet, so it will be somewhat inconvenient. For this reason, I have included examples of doors that are attached to the fireplace, which are both more functional and convenient. Glass doors are beneficial because you can close them as the fire dies out to help keep the cold air from coming down the chimney. You can also burn fires with the doors closed if you have ceramic glass.

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: 57 3/4" W x ?" H

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.
