Glass Doors for Black Granite Fireplace - Project #11085
Customer Comments: Hello, As specified in your Fireplace Design Service documentation, I have attached photos and provided measurements. The bottom of the white marble covered mantle is about 2.5 inches above the top of the fireplace opening. Otherwise, the opening is a pretty flat, rectangular, smooth (black granite tile), and flush. Looking for a nice metal-framed window with the possibility of a built-in sliding screen behind the glass (if available).
Our Comments: We have quite a variety of doors that will work with your fireplace and room decor. We have chosen black, gloss black and satin nickel/gray finishes for these mockups, but each door is available in a wide variety of other finishes. It appears that the upper right corner of the granite has a healthy chip. We have presented several doors with wider frames that can cover that if you are not planning to get it repaired.
Fireplace Opening: 35" W x 27 1/4" 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.

Affordable 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.

Medium Range Steel Doors
Steel doors are more substantial than the less expensive aluminum doors. They are heavy duty and rugged and are more customizable because the frames are laser cut.

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.
