Glass Doors for Large Red Brick Fireplace - Project #11468
Customer Comments: Looking for a glass fireplace door for our fireplace. Preferably steel. Not bi-fold.
Our Comments: If you wish to burn a fire with the doors closed, you will need bifold doors or ceramic glass. Bifold doors are a lot less expensive and worth your consideration, so we have included a couple options.
Fireplace Opening: 48 1/4" W x 32 3/4" 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.
Finish Samples: Design Specialties Finishes | Stone Manufacturing Finishes | Hearth Creations Finishes
Before:
Design Specialties
Design Specialties makes bifold doors that can be burned with the doors closed. These are very heavy duty and made from laser cut steel
Hearth Creations
Hearth Creations doors cannot be burned with the doors closed unless they are made with ceramic glass, which comes as a high premium upgrade. If using normal tempered glass you must burn a fire with the doors open except when initially starting the fire or when it is dying out.

Stone Manufacturing - Solid Brass
These are ultra-high-end doors made from solid brass. We have chosen these doors to compliment your black with brass pilgrim fireplace tools. These can be made with a wide variety of decorative trim patterns and finishes shown at the bottom of this page. This is the only fireplace door manufacturer that uses solid brass components. Ceramic glass is not an option and these doors must be burned open except when starting a fire or when the fire is dying out.
Option #7: Stone Manufacturing DF1G Fullview Cabinet Glass Door with 1" Beveled Clear Glass, Flat Black Frame and Half Round Door Frames in Polished Brass to Perfectly Compliment Your Fireplace Tools. Shown with Exclusive Graylite-14 Dark Gray Glass to hide the interior of the fireplace when the doors are closed. Can also be made with clear glass.
Option #8: Stone Manufacturing DF1G Cabinet Glass Door with Flat Black Frame and #48 4-sided Floral Casting Trim in Amber Finish to Compliment Your Fireplace Tools. Shown with Clear Glass with a 1" Bevel Around the Perimeter.
Stone Manufacturing Wrought Iron
These doors are hand forged by a Blacksmith with characteristics you cannot get from flat steel and has a distinct texture to it that is a result of the forging process. The scrollwork comes in a wide variety of patterns and can be customized to your taste. These examples also show an exclusive "Mesh in Front of Glass" feature only offered by Stone Manufacturing. Adding a wire mesh in front of the glass takes away the reflection giving it a softer less modern look that is more in line with their style. You still get the functionality of the glass doors blocking cold air from coming into your home, but it does not look like a glass door. These are very expensive. Ceramic glass is not an option, so you must burn them with the doors open.
Option #9: Stone Manufacturing WI-DF1G Wrought Iron Fireplace Door with Hand Crafted Fleur De Lis Handles and Scrollwork. Shown with Mesh in Front of Glass.
Option #10: Stone Manufacturing WI-DF1G Wrought Iron Fireplace Door with Leaf Scrollwork. Shown with Mesh in Front of 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.
