Feeling the Heat

Forgive me if that's not what there called, the three iron bars that prevent logs from rolling against doors. One is straight the other two are bent so that I can make it look like its smiling or frowning. I'm tempted to put them in a press but don't wanna break them, I'll get pics soon. Being cast iron I'm afraid they are brittle, I've seen the lower one glow red. Bad idea to try to bend back?
 
without heating them i think they would crack
