.
Detailed below are a few sets of doors of different configurations, designed with a view to gaining some of the benefits of a stove , while retaining the option of having a bona fide open fire when required. They are also often intended to lessen the tendency of the open fire to smoke back into the room where this is caused by less than ideal ratios between flue size and fireplace aperture. (The frame upon which the doors are hung can be devised in order to rectify these ratios.)
