Glass doors, mesh screens and grates fitted to your fireplace, so sparks stay in, heat stays in the room and drafts stay out.
An open fireplace sends a surprising amount of your room heat up the chimney, and every spark that jumps out is a risk to the rug and the floor. Doors and screens address both problems. Glass doors allow a fire to burn in a controlled way, hold in warmth and close off the opening when the fire is out. A mesh screen keeps sparks in and keeps children and pets back from the fire.
We help you choose from the many styles, measure the opening carefully and install the doors and screens so they fit neatly and operate smoothly. We also explain how to use them safely, including when to open doors for air and when to leave screens in place.
Tempered glass doors let you see the fire and close the opening when it is done. They come in finishes to suit your room and fit masonry and prefabricated fireplaces.
Screens and mesh curtains stop sparks and are a simple, attractive choice. They are good for families with children or pets.
The right grate holds logs at the correct height for air flow. We can supply and fit one to your firebox.
Doors should open easily, seal reasonably well and clear the hearth. We measure at the opening and install to match.
