This room originally had paneling and carpeting, and where the French door is there was an old rotting sliding door.

Thanks.  
No, it uses cans of alcohol gel. Throws off enough heat to warm up that room in the winter and looks/sounds like wood burning. I’m going to use the same fuel for an in wall fireplace in my upstairs bathroom once remodeled.

Looks amazing, nice work.

My vote is for option 1, it makes more sense to me based on what I have seen in the pictures.
