Our Comments:
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.
Gas Log Warning: To prevent the burner and pilot mechanism from overheating causing safety issues, gas logs must be burned with glass doors open. The mockups show the doors closed, which is not correct and is a limitation based on how the mockups are done.

Hand forged by a blacksmith from 1/4" thick solid wrought iron with heavy duty gasketed doors for a tighter seal and maximum draft reduction. Not only are these built to be used, they take on a more rugged natural look for those who appreciate craftsmanship and tasteful details. The forging process produces a unique texture that you cannot get with laser cut steel and there are added hammered textures that can be for a more rustic applications. These doors are often used for extremely large fireplaces because of their heavy duty solid frame and hinges. They are commonly ordered with ceramic glass for buring hot fires with the doors closed.

These mockups show various 36" Grand Canyon gas logs along with the glass door featured in Option #1. Keep in mind the mockups incorrectly shown the doors closed even though you must burn the gas logs with the doors open.
Option #4: Grand Canyon 36 Inch Lava Gas Logs with GloFire Technology. These are the only logs on the market with burners cast inside the logs so flames come directly out of the logs themselves. They are by far the most realistic gas logs on the market, but also one of the most expensive. Shown with Closeout Special* WI-AN1 19" Tall Mini Prague Wrought Iron Andirons.
Option #5: AWO-36-JUMBO 36" Arizona Weathered Oak Jumbo Gas Logs in Room Setting. Jumbo logs are 50% larger in diameter than other logs and have a special raised center burner that makes the flames much higher. Shown with Closeout Special* WI-AN1 19" Tall Mini Prague Wrought Iron Andirons.

The detachable frame comes in several pieces that are bolted together. This allows you to install a door behind the facing and is particularly useful with very irregular stone. This can also be made with offset hinges that extend beyond the stone allowing the doors to open all the way flat against the stone and avoiding hitting the frame on the stone edges.
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.
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 sustained temperatures up to about 1450F and be in direct contact with the flames. If you wish to burn fires with the doors closed, I highly recommend upgrading to ceramic glass. Ceramic glass is $800-$2000 more than tempered glass depending on the manufacturer.
Not all doors are available with all of these glass options.
