Project #10864 - Glass Doors for Fireplace
Customer Comments: Hi, We think we are interested in: Brookfield Fireplace screen classic bronze, classic handle, black mesh curtain. We would like a tinted glass, but not sure whether to go with gray or bronze. The opening in the bricks is 30" x 46" (how exact do you need this?) I've attached photos with our current doors still attached since we are still using the fireplace daily.
Our Comments: We have provided mockups of the Brookfield and some other doors. We have attempted to show the difference in glass color between bronze and gray. Most people choose gray glass. You will need to remove your door and send us more pictures before you finalize your order so we can tell you how to measure. It will be easy to remove it and put it back on.
Fireplace Opening: 46" W x 30" 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.

Before:
Low End Aluminum 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.
