Project #10863 - Elegant Solid Brass Fireplace Doors
We have added a second page where we are showing the additional mockups requested: Page 1 | Page 2
Customer Comments: Hi. Included below is a photo of the fireplace in our Manhattan apartment. As you can see we need a door. The firebox is 36 inches wide and 26 inches high. We saw a number of doors in the Solid Brass Door section of your website that we liked from a design perspective. We are have some difficulty with finish choices. The doors we liked are numbers 134, 147 and 167. We are hoping there is a way to see what these designs would look like in different finishes.
Our Comments: We have provided mockups of some very elegant fireplace doors made from solid brass. Some of the doors you selected are actually mesh doors that cannot be made with glass, but we can use the same trimmings to create glass doors that are similar, but will have slightly wider frames. The arched models will require the marble to be added around the fireplace made to fit the door. Please see page 2 for additional comments and mockups
Fireplace Opening: 36" W x 26" 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.

High End Hand Crafted Solid Brass
These doors are hand crafted by skilled artisans from Solid Brass or Steel, depending on the finish that is desired. Very high end, and very refined. Items made from solid brass come in a wide variety of hand crafted patinas and other finishes. Satin Nickel finishes done on solid brass are the finest quality and will not rust like plated steel.

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.
