Project #10643 - Glass Doors for Fireplace with Brick Ledge
Customer Comments: I’m looking for a custom fireplace door. I’m looking for probably this dimension + Twin Gate Mesh Panel Doors, 2 cabinet doors (folding 4 panel): Like Savannah Stock Door Model: 36295
Our Comments: The stock size door will not work for you, but we can custom make it to fit under your ledge. We will need accurate measurements from the hearth to the bottom of the brick ledge and to the bottom of the lintel. You will need to measure each brick to find the lowest and highest height. Same for the width, smallest and largest. We will then make the door 1/8" to 1/4" lower than the lowest point depending on how level the ledge is. See the examples below of the Savannah as well as others in various price ranges.
Fireplace Opening: Fireplace Opening (approx): 34 1/4" W x 29" H

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.
