Reply:Looked at the link.Looks pretty decent - but do a GOOGLE search for wire mesh screen - there's quite a few, and in colors.Here's one for stainlesshttp://www.twpinc.com/wire-mesh/TWPCAT_12Remember you want a very fine weave to stop sparks and take the heat of a fire and a fire spark over a long period of time.
