Fireplace Doors Buying Guide

• Fireplace Type Compatibility: Know whether you have a masonry or prefab (factory-built) fireplace.
• Accurate Measurements: Measure top, middle, and bottom widths and both height sides.
• Installation Fit: Choose Overlap (face-mount) or Inside Fit (flush mount).
• Safety and Code Compliance: Check fire safety rules — especially for prefab units.
• Glass Type: Tempered (standard) or Ceramic (high heat for wood fireplaces).
• Ventilation and Airflow: Ensure proper air draw and burn safety.
• Material and Durability: Choose from steel, iron, aluminum based on durability/style.
• Design Aesthetic: Pick style and finish that fits your room — modern, rustic, or traditional.
• Functionality: Bi-fold, cabinet, or sliding — think about how it opens and clears heat.
• Heat Efficiency: Helps contain heat — tight seals improve zone heating.
• Budget and Customization: Custom = perfect fit & style. Stock = affordable and fast.

• Interior: Steel/metal firebox instead of brick.
• Label: Manufacturer data tag inside louver.
• Chimney: Metal pipe, not masonry chimney.
• Wall: Built into wood framing, not solid brick.
• Foundation: Often above floor level — no hearth base.

• Built from brick, stone, or concrete.
• Usually has a full brick chimney.
• Requires heavy-duty fireplace doors.
• Check for a lintel bar before measuring.
