How do you determine the
fireplace screen size you need for your fireplace? You only
need a few measurements: The width of the opening and the
height of your fireplace opening measuring from the surface that your
fireplace covering will stand on. With these two measurements
you can select the most appropriate
fireplace screen. If
you're looking for a three, four, or
5 screen panel you may necessitate
a fireplace screen that is wide enough to allow for a fold in the
fireplace screen so that it won't fall down. Just add 10-12
inches to the your fireplace opening and that is the measurement (or
layflat dimension) of the fireplace covering that you will should have.
If your fireplace measures 36 inches across, your utilitarian
fireplace covering should at least measure 46". To offer
suitable protection from flying cinders, your screen had better some at
least to the top of your fireplace opening or overlap it.
Since you know what size your covering for your fireplace
ought to be, you can now select the finish and style. One
panel coverings for fireplaces merely should overlap the opening all
the way around for adequate safety from
flying cinders.
