IMO first you fix the lighting it all needs to be the same and IMO LED 4000K is agood choice. You choose wall color last so install the FP surround the mantel and then look at wall color . Grays all have different undertones and can be quite trcky to work with so do not choose wall color before all the other choices have been made.

I absolutely agree Patricia. But im really just wanting to see this particular granite on the fireplace drawing. Some people are savy in changing pic backround and colors , Im not one of them for sure. Thank you for the advise just the same.

Thank you Hansen Wholesale, I appreciate it. The fireplace, surround, mantel and hearth are to scale tho. Can you do it like that? Btw, my paint is quite a bit grayer but the phone camera turns on yellowish. Thank you!

Is this what you want? I put the back side of the mantel to the same dimension of the black shelf you had on your drawing. I removed the nice looking glass door so you can see the inside of your fireplace is in the same position as the previous mockup.

Hope this helps...although I think you would be better off if you provided a better original picture more like the example below this mockup.

Try posting a picture more like this so we can see more of the wall where the fireplace is.

Is this any better?

Yes, thank you, that’s what I needed to see!

Hansen Wholesale, do you have a link to those glass doors?

Thanks. Hey, Would you be Rick? I saw the name yesterday..cant find today for some reason. On any case, I’ll take a pic from further back, when the room is put back together. Total disorder right now (ocd me).

Regarding your mock doors; nice job and it goes with the mock/stock mantel in my picture. However, the actual mantel im using is this:

It’s 7” deep, 4” thick x 69”. Contemporary, I know, but im sort of mixing styles while keeping…attempting to keep a sense of proportion. essentialy, i think the mock doors may lean too gothic or rustic with chosen mantel??

Heres what I know so far..the mantel is set in ston…no pun. Tge stone is black leather pearl (face and hearth) and the face will be cut out, not pieced together. the piece they cut out (28”h x 36”w) Im keeping and ill use to cut out these pieces:

So, apparently, and im not certain, I woukd have just an inch or so of granite material on ea. side of firbox to attach fp doors??

Interesting design addition, the doors, because your mockup goes so well w/ the granite but a) can they fit w/ symmetry and b) is there a finish or alternate that plays w/ smooth black walnut (contemporary) mantel??

You need more pics..for sure. In the meantime any thoughts on my design are welcome..for sure.

I'm Greg,

You are going to want to address the glass doors first before you finalize any dimensions for cutting and installing the stone. Prefab fireplaces like yours require special types of glass doors that allow proper airflow into the fireplace. A good majority of designs must overlap the black metal of the fireplace and CANNOT overlap the stone. So you need to consider the doors first.
