Project 10229 - Custom Fireplace Doors for Rock Fireplace
Customer Comments: We would like to see what a couple of fireplace doors would look like in our fireplace. We are interested in 2 doors both of them Design Specialties. One is the Stiletto and the other is Carolina. Both of them we would like in the following features/options: Powder coat Textured Black, both frame and doors, Contemporary Handles in Black, Grey glass with no bevel, Hidden damper, Bi fold trackless doors, 2 door mesh screen gate. The fireplace opening is 26" x 33" with a flush hearth. This will be an inside fit with mortar installation. The fireplace has a stone veneer covering with original brick finish behind it. Dimensions allow for inside fit without interfering with the stone facing.
Our Comments: We have created the mockups you requested. We also added a few other examples of alternative finishes and doors we think would look great. Each of the doors are shown with gray glass and gate mesh panel backup doors.
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.

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.
