Project 10076 - Fireplace Door Mock-Ups
Heatilator Model HD36B Fireplace Doors
Customer Comments: Looking for replacement doors for this model. Like the duel pane but not sure I can put them on. Had folding doors with the pivot pin. Models I like: ds-custom blacksmith, ds custom stiletto
Opening Size: 36" W x 20" H
Our Comments: It is best to have pictures where the doors are removed or at least closed. We have gone ahead and provided mock-ups using the picture you supplied, but we would be happy to redo the mock-ups if you can supply an additional photo with the doors removed taken from the view shown below.
Note: These mock-ups are not to scale and are meant to help you choose the model of your screen or door, not the finish. Although we may create a general representation of black, iron, bronze, gold and silver tones, you must choose your finish from our samples using the links below. Ask your project manager which samples apply to the items in your project.

Before
Blacksmith ZC Door in Forged Iron. This door is forged from 3/16" solid steel. The frame is 1 1/2" wide and is made to overlap the black metal opening by 1/4" on all 4 sides (existing door tracks should be removed for this application).
Stiletto ZC Door in Rustic Black. This door has a 1" wide extruded aluminum frame and is made to fit inside the opening leaving a 1/4" gap between the black metal and the door frame (door tracks should be removed for this application).
Other Pictures

Mesh & Insulation Options
The Mesh options are behind the glass so you can burn the fire with the doors open and still have spark protection. Great for real wood or gas logs since most gas long manufacturers insist that you have a screen in front of the logs when they are burning. Mesh panel doors are the most popular and are best for when there are toddlers present because they will not open backwards whereas the mesh screens are easily pushed in. Insulation goes between the back of the frame and the fireplace facing, providing a better seal.
Black Mesh Curtains - These slide back and forth on a rod behind the glass
Gate Mesh Doors - These are separate doors behind the glass that have a flat wire mesh and a black frame.
Insulation: Provides a better seal between the fireplace face and the door frame.
