Project 10333 - Glass Doors for Ledger Stone Fireplace
Customer Comments: I am interested in your Savanna series fireplace doors with mesh. I have a masonry fireplace that is 35 1/2 in. Wide by 24 in High. I am enclosing the five photos to create a photo simulation of your doors on my fireplace. I am considering the Rustic Black, Textured Black and Ancient Age colors or other suggestions you might have. I believe I will need the SV36255 doors with gate mesh, but let me know if this is the closest fit.
Our Comments: Due to the irregular surface of the stone, we cannot recommend using the stock size Savannah door that you are requesting. It is made to overlap the fireplace opening, and the irregularities of your stone facing will cause there to be large gaps between the frame and the stone. In cases such as yours, we always recommend an inside fit with some mortar to fill the gap, which requires a custom made door. We have created several examples for you to consider.
Fireplace Opening: 35 1/2" W x 24" H
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.

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.
