How to Measure

1. If possible, remove the existing register or grille.
   
   
2. Correct register or grille sizing is achieved by measuring the actual opening in the wall, ceiling, or floor.
   
   
3. The width is always expressed first, followed by the height.
   
   
4. If the rough opening measures 20 inches wide by 14 inches tall, the correct size piece to order would be a 20"x14".
   
   
5. The actual register or grille's interior dimensions will be slightly smaller, so the piece's frame and damper assembly fit into the recessed opening.
   
   
6. The actual register or grille's outer dimensions, or flange, will be larger. This will ensure the flange will fit flush on the finished surface and will completely cover the rough opening. This outer flange will house the various screw holes to securely attach the register or grille.
   
   
7. SteelCrest can custom create our products to fit any size opening. You tell us the openig size and we'll take it from there!
   
   
8. If you are unable to remove the existing register or grille, you will need to measure the outside of the existing piece. If this is the case, call us for assistance.
   
   
9. Before installing your register or grille, we highly recommend painting the interior of the opening with flat black paint tol ensure a clean finished look.
