Gold Screen Ideas for Large Stone Fireplace - Project #11442
Customer Comments: Either glass or mesh with gold trim/feet. I'd love to know the pros and cons of each type. Probably a straight version and not curved.
Our Comments: As per our email discussion, we have ruled out free standing glass screens. Here are some great looking modern fireplace treatments with gold. Notice the addition of the "Windswept Tree" gas burning sculpture in some of the mockups. This is an exclusive offering that is somewhat whimsical, but works well with your modern art.
Fireplace Opening: 48 1/2" W x 31 1/2" 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. Although we may create a general representation of black, iron, bronze, gold and silver tones, you must choose your finish from our samples using the links below. Ask your project manager which samples apply to the items in your project.

Modern Sliding Glass Doors
The outer panes of glass are fixed while the inner panes slide left and right to open. This version features an angle iron frame on edge so only a small edge of the frame is visible. The gap between the rough edge of the stone and the frame would need to be filled with mortar to match the rest of the fireplace.

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.
