Glass Doors for Fireplace Remodel with Stacked Stone - Project #11286
Customer Comments: I am wanting ZC doors if possible that can be mounted using magnets. Please advise. Prefab firebox: Majestic BR42. Recommended door model by the manufacturer: HGD42A/42GDKBB. The marble facing around the FP is going to be replaced with stacked stone. This will be done based on the doors chosen. Any help would be appreciated.
Our Comments: Here are some mockups showing the finsihed fireplace somewhat as you have described. The doors necessary for prefab fireplaces must have some way of providing air ventilation to the fireplace. You will notice some of them have slots cut into the outer frame for this purpose.
Fireplace Opening: 42" W x 19 1/2" H

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.
