Customer Comments: Looking for a good set of logs - most realistic and not too worries about price, but don’t want to overpay, obviously.
Our Comments: Here are the most realistic gas logs along with some options to replace the old fireplace screen that does not fit properly. I included measuring instructions below for the gas logs and new screen or door.
Fireplace Opening: Unknown
Option #1: Grand Canyon 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 Wrought Iron Bar and Mesh Curtains in Natural Iron.
Option #2: Grand Canyon Arizona Weathered Oak Charred Gas Logs. Shown with Hand Crafted Olde World Wrought Iron Fireplace Screen in Burnished Natural Iron.
Option #3: Grand Canyon Arizona Weathered Oak Gas Logs. Shown with Brookfield Glass Doors with Mesh Curtains. Note: Doors must be open with gas logs are burning.
Option #4: Grand Canyon Driftwood Gas Logs. Shown with Hand Crafted Olde World Wrought Iron Single Fireplace Mesh Door in Burnished Natural Iron.
W1: Tile Opening WidthIf 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.

Photo #1: With your camera sideways, take a picture directly in front of the fireplace from far enough away to see the entire fireplace floor to ceiling like this.
