Contemporary Glass Doors for See Through Fireplace - Project #11087
Customer Comments: Would like to see Options #3, 4 and 5 from Project #11007 on this fireplace. We are interested in a simple modern clean glass door like the styles in Project #11007 from the samples you sent me. The size of the fireplace is approximately 47 inches wide by 28 inches high. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Thanks
Our Comments: Here are the requested mockups. We did some in black, brushed nickel and antique pewter which all seem to work well with your beautiful marble fireplace. We also added a new door that you might like, the "Mid-Century Modern 3".
Fireplace Opening: 47" W x 28" 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.

Before:
Option #1: MET Bifold Fireplace Door in Brushed Pewter with Textured Black Outer Frame. The outer frame is only visible at the bottom and must be there in order to allow the doors to open without dragging on the hearth.
Option #3: HYBRID-2 Bifold Fireplace Glass Door in Antique Pewter. This door has no frame on the sides.
Option #4: New Door - Mid-Century Modern 3 with Matte "Hidden" Outer Frame and Satin Nickel Aluminum Doors. Shown with Satin Nickel Tools with Textured Glass Stand. This doors is unique with the glass actually inserted into an aluminum extrusion, so the glass actually ends up being larger than the fireplace opening itself. The doors stand out about 1" from the back frame so you can open them without any handles.
Option #6: Stiletto Cutback Bifold Fireplace Glass Door in Rustic Black with Clear Glass.

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.
