Brushed Nickel Glass Doors for Absolute Granite Fireplace - Project #11242
Customer Comments: Hello! We are interested in Fireplace doors for wood burning fireplace with Smoked glass, Double doors, Brushed Nickel finish! Opening size 34 1/2W x 24 1/2 H. Any suggestions would be appreciated! Thank you in advance!
Our Comments: We have created examples in a variety of materials ranging from brushed aluminum on the low end to solid brass nickel plated doors on the very high end. We interpreted your "Double Doors" request as bifold doors, but if you meant twin or cabinet doors, all of these can be made that way as well. The high end doors can be made with Graylite-14 dark gray glass, which is about 50% darker than typical smoked glass if you want to best hide the inside of the fireplace. Only doors from Design Specialties can be burned with the doors closed, the other brands must remain open when a fire is burning. Hope this helps!
Fireplace Opening: 34 1/2" W x 24 1/2" 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: Design Specialties Brookfield Fireplace Glass Door in Satin Nickel with Gray Glass (brushed aluminum).
Option #2: Design Specialties Bungalow Fireplace Glass Door in Satin Nickel with Gray Glass (brushed aluminum).
Option #3A: Design Specialties Phoenix Fireplace Glass Door in Satin Nickel with Gray Glass (brushed aluminum).
Option #3B: Design Specialties Phoenix Fireplace Glass Door in Vintage Iron with Gray Glass.
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.
Option #4: Hearth Creations Flat Steel Door with Satin Nickel Sheet Metal Overlay and Gray Glass. This door can also be made with a solid steel brushed nickel plated frame for about double the price.
Option #5: Design Specialties Legend Window Pane Fireplace Glass Door with Gray Glass in Satin Nickel.
Option #6: Design Specialties Slim Moderne Fireplace Glass Door in Black with Satin Nickel Doors and Gray Glass. The outer frame is black, but very narrow.
High End Hand Crafted Solid Brass
These doors are hand crafted by skilled artisans from 100% virgin Solid Brass and then nickel plated. The result is the finest quality satin nickel finish possible that has a deep luxurious luster and will never rust.Very high end, and very refined. The last option is an exception as it is made from laser cut steel.
Option #7: Stone Manufacturing Minimal-1 Fireplace Glass Door in Satin Nickel with Graylite-15 Dark Gray Glass. There is no frame on the sides of this door and the glass is 3/8" thick giving it a very unique minimalist look. This door can also be made as a bifold, but the additional hinges take away from the style, so we recommend having it made as a cabinet door.
Option #8: Stone Manufacturing HYBRID-2 Bifold Fireplace Glass Door in Satin Nickel with Graylite-14 Dark Gray Glass. This door has no frame on the sides.
Option #9: Stone Manufacturing DF1G Solid Brass Fireplace Door with Gloss Black Frame and Polished Chrome Half Round Doors. The doors can be made in satin nickel as well, but we don't have a picture of that combination to create a mockup. The entire door can be made in satin nickel if the gloss black frame is not desired, but we find this combination as shown works very well with absolute black granite.
Option #10: Stone Manufacturing DF1G-44 Solid Brass Fireplace Doors with Circle Dot Casting Trim in Satin Nickel with Graylite-14 Dark Gray Glass.
Option #11: Stone Manufacturing HLD-2 Solid Brass Fireplace Doors in Satin Nickel with Graylite-14 Dark Gray Glass.
Option #12: Stone Manufacturing EC20-DF Plated Steel Fireplace Doors with Laser Cut Half Oval Doors in Satin Nickel with Graylite-14 Dark Gray 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.
