About Ironhaus
Hand-forged in Montana,
sized to your fireplace
Ironhaus makes custom iron fireplace doors in Hamilton, Montana. Every door is cut, built, and finished by its own craftsmen, in the door type, texture, finish, and hardware you choose. It’s the least disruptive upgrade in the hearth business: no framing, no venting, no permit in most cases — the fireplace you already have, finished properly.

Where Ironhaus fits
What Ironhaus makes
The core catalog — clean rectangular and arched doors in a range of finishes. Where most projects start, and the shortest lead time.
The fullest level of customization: cabinet, full-view, bi-fold, and single-swing door types, arched or rectangular, with your choice of texture, finish, straps, handles, and panels.
A surround and door together, so a dated brick opening reads as one deliberate piece instead of a patch.
Foundation Series
The core catalog — and the shortest lead time
Clean rectangular and arched doors in a range of finishes, made to the opening you measured. This is where most projects start and where most of them end: the shapes cover the great majority of masonry openings in the county, and the lead time is the shortest Ironhaus offers.
- Measured to your opening — these are made to order, not pulled off a shelf.
- Rectangular or arched, with a choice of finishes.
- No permit, no venting work, no masonry: the least disruptive change we sell.

Fully custom — when the opening isn’t standard
The fullest level of customization: cabinet, full-view, bi-fold and single-swing door types, arched or rectangular, with your choice of texture, finish, straps, handles and panels. This is the route for an opening nothing standard fits, or for a room where the fireplace is the thing people look at.
- Door type changes how the fireplace is used, not just how it looks — bi-fold and swing behave differently.
- Texture and finish are chosen together with the room, and samples take time. Start early.
- An unusual opening is normal here; send the measurements and the photos.
Opening nothing standard fits? Send photos and measurements — custom is the usual answer and we’ll say what it involves.

Surround and door together
A dated brick opening with a new door on it can still read as a patch. Refacing treats the surround and the door as one piece, which is what makes an old fireplace look deliberate rather than repaired — and it does it without touching the firebox or the flue.
- The surround and door are designed together, in one finish and one language.
- Nothing structural changes, so there’s no permit and no venting work.
- Often paired with an insert: new heat behind a front that finally matches the room.
Fireplace looks dated? Send a photo of the whole wall, not just the opening — refacing is about the wall.

Good to know
Ironhaus questions we hear every week
Will a door fit my existing fireplace?
Almost certainly — that’s the point of custom. Send a photo and the width, height, and depth of the opening, and we’ll tell you which door types work.
What does a custom door cost?
Less than you’d expect next to the cost of a rebuild, and it depends on size, door type, and finish. We quote the exact configuration before anything is ordered.
How long does a custom door take?
Longer than an off-the-shelf unit — it’s built by hand for your opening. You get the lead time in writing with the quote.
Does a door make the fireplace more efficient?
It helps: a closed door slows the draft that pulls heated air up the chimney when the fireplace isn’t burning. For real heat gain, an insert does more — we’ll tell you which one makes sense for yours.
Do you install the door?
No. Jesse isn’t a licensed contractor. Doors are straightforward to fit, and we can point you to an installer we’ve worked with.
