Project #10666 - Glass Doors for Prefab Fireplace
Customer Comments: Steve, I spoke with you a few weeks ago regarding a door for a pre fabricated fireplace. It’s got vents that pull air in from the outside. I would need to double check measurements but it’s within a half inch of 42 wide by 38 high. There’s a recessed lip on each side but the top and bottom edges are flush. I think you quoted me around $800 and you said to send a photo, which is attached. Let me know what else you would need. Thanks.
Our Comments: Here are the mockups you have requested after our phone conversation. Please note that it is nearly impossible to differentiate between Classic Bronze and Espresso on a computer monitor. Espresso is a VERY dark brown and almost appears black, depending on the lighting in the room. But when set next to black, you can tell the difference.
Fireplace Opening: 42" W x 38" 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.

Brookfield Fireplace Doors
Aluminum is an excellent material for fireplace doors because it does not rust and can handle high temperatures when treated with powder coated finishes. It is also the most affordable.

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.
