Screen options for large red brick fireplace - Project #11118
Customer Comments: The finishing in the house are black and brushes gold. I would like a very simple design. I do not anticipate making a lot of fires. I do not need glass, I just wanted something to cover the opening so it looks more finished. I also do not want to spend 1000s of dollars on this.
Our Comments: Here are a variety of options in the lowest price range for each category.
Fireplace Opening: 60 3/4" W x 52" H

Before:
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.
Option #1: Brookfield Fireplace Glass Door in Rustic Black with Fixed End Panels, Clear Glass and Mesh Curtains.
Free Standing Screens
Option #2: Carolina Single Panel Fireplace Screen with Window Pane Design in Vintage Iron. This mockup may not accurately show the proportions of the window pane pattern. The manufacturer will determine where the vertical and horizontal bar need to be placed in order to provide enough support for the mesh. We can provide a CAD drawing for approval prior to production on this screen.

Mesh Curtains

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.
