Custom Glass Doors with Vents for Prefab Fireplace - Project #11295
Customer Comments: We would like to purchase some fireplace doors for our prefab fire Place thaat we just had cleaned and new brick put inside. It measures 38" across and 25" to 26" up and down depending on where you measure it from. Please let me know if your are able to help with this project. Thank you.
Our Comments: We recommend doors that cover the entire black metal portion of the fireplace, unless you plan on cleaning up the metal and painting it. If you do clean up the metal, the first option below would fit inside the opening.
Fireplace Opening: 38" W x 26" H (roughly)

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.
