Product Information

The CB2 Ledge Glass Fireplace Screen is easy to clean and care for. The tempered glass surface wipes clean with glass cleaner and a soft cloth. However, take note that there are no handles on this fireplace screen, and it becomes hot when exposed to the heat from a fire. So it’s not as ideal for situations where you may need to frequently tend to a wood-burning fire. Instead, it’s a better fit for gas fireplaces or if you don’t plan to regularly add logs to your fire. The steel mesh of this fireplace screen allows heat from your fireplace to dissipate while preventing sparks and embers from escaping into the room. You’ll appreciate the folding, three-panel design since it makes it easier to move and store the screen when not in use. Fireplace screens are most commonly made of metal. Alloy steel is one of the most popular materials and usually equates to a fireplace screen that is lightweight. This can be an advantage if you frequently move your fireplace screen for storage but a disadvantage if you have children or pets that might bump into the fireplace screen. Because of the light weight of these models, they sometimes are more prone to tipping over. On the other hand, cast or wrought iron fireplace screens are among the heaviest options. While this makes them more challenging to maneuver, they’re usually fairly sturdy and durable.

This option is made of steel, has a mesh screen for spark protection, and offers a latching mechanism to keep the doors securely closed. That's an important feature. Without the doors closed, this fireplace screen will be less effective. Greenwell, home education expert and host of the TV show "My Southern Home ,"says, "Fireplace screens with large openings, without wire mesh, do not protect your home from loose embers that can land on your rugs, carpet, and other easily flammable household items." Adding to the safety features of this freestanding fireplace screen are its adjustable feet, which provide better stability if you have an uneven hearth. Glass is another category of fireplace screen materials. Options like the CB2 Ledge Glass Fireplace Screen offer a clear visual of the fireplace and the flames inside but can be more challenging to keep clean. The solid material also tends to direct heat to the ceiling rather than allowing it to pass horizontally through the screen and into the room.Fireplace screens can cost several hundred dollars depending on the materials, design, and finish, but you can shield your space from embers and sparks with a more affordable version. The Best Choice Products Simple Steel Mesh Fireplace Screen is simple but budget-friendly. It’s made from a steel alloy and comes in three different finishes to suit your style or decor.

A single-panel fireplace screen that fits flush against the opening of a wood-burning fireplace should be about 1 inch wider than the firebox. For fireplace screens with multiple panels, you should select an option that is 10 to 12 inches wider than the opening so that the panels can be arranged in a way that keeps the screen stable and standing on its own.Most other fireplace screens with doorsutilize magnets to hold the doors closed, but it’s worth noting that magnets may fail after repeated exposure to high heat, and then the doors need to be removed. This isn’t a concern with the Pottery Barn Industrial Fireplace Door Screen because the doors have a latch instead of the usual magnetic closure system. However, use caution when opening the doors since the latch can become very hot to the touch, like the rest of the steel fireplace screen. It features a fine mesh screen that offers some protection against flying sparks and errant ashes, ensuring the safety of your home and loved ones. A spark guard is a specific type of fireplace screen that provides more coverage across the width and height of your firebox. It features a mesh screen with a top and sides that enclose the opening of the fireplace while still allowing plenty of airflow to the flames. We recommend the Symple Stuff Dang Spark Guard for this category since it features wrought iron construction and handles to make it easier to move the fireplace screen from one spot to another. This outdoor fireplace screen is constructed of cast aluminum for rust resistance. The wire mesh of the screen is fine enough to prevent sparks and embers from escaping but allows for the heat to easily pass through. You especially want to choose a fireplace screen with this attribute if you plan to use it in an outdoor living roomwhere you’re relying on the fire’s warmth for comfort. Whether you choose to use this fireplace screen outdoors or indoors, it has an appealing art deco aesthetic, and it's available in multiple finishes to suit the style of your patio, porch, or any other living space. Please note: This fire guard is not intended for child safety purposes but primarily designed for spark protection and decorative enhancement.
