Default Should I seal around the fireplace screen?

Morning All,

I just installed a new fireplace screen / door surround.

Eventhough the unit came with some of the fiberglass batting, it is not
sitting flush against the fireplace because of the unevenness of the
bricks. And although not huge, there are some air gaps around the
edges.

I was thinking I'd seal around the edges with a high heat mortar...

Thoughts?

Thanks!

Steve
