Customer Reviews for Pleasant Hearth Ashlynn Large Glass Fireplace Doors

One person can install. Looks good. Finish is okay but no cleaning instructions. 1/2 to 1/3 of price wanted by fireplace stores in area for same basic look.

Since the Home Depot doesn't carry the Glass Fireplace Doors in the stores, it was necessary to try to figure out the best style and color from the web site pictures. We weren't sure and considered ordering two or three and just returning the ones we didn't like. Ended up deciding to do that one at a time rather than all at once. Turned out that the first one we ordered was the perfect size and color. Only issue is that the door is designed to go directly on the brick of the fireplace assuming standard dimensions. The reason we needed a new door was because we had had the fireplace clad in sheet granite. That added about an inch to the distance from the front to the back of the first brick. I could make the attachments on the top work, but had to make some fairly simple modifications to make the bottom solid. Now that it is complete, it looks great and works as designed.

Almost every aspect of the installation was something of a headache. I'm pretty handy and having read the instructions careful and outlined a plan I expected the job to take half a day. It took 3 days and some creative improvisation to complete the installation.
