Had a kitchen refit 18 months ago and decided to put a fake cupboard door in front of our boiler to disguise the yellowed case and to make it neater. Anyway due to communication problems the boiler became fully encased in a cupboard and the door is much closer to the front of the boiler than I'd have liked. It's about 3/4in away. Anyway the door is showing signs of cracking on the inside due to the heat. Just wondered whether anyone could suggest some material that I could use to try to protect the door a bit from the heat?

Currently trying a silicon baking sheet but think it's a bit thin and not offering much protection.
 
How about you install a vent on the door to get some air circulation?
