One of the most frequent calls we get is how to size/select our Dayus custom grilles.  The answer is simple:  The HOLE size.

The measurement we need to build a grille is the size of the hole/opening (we call it LIST SIZE).  The hole size is the information entered into our website for pricing and ordering.  Dayus will build the grille slightly undercut to make sure the recessed portion of the frame slides nicely into the hole. 

The grille flange is roughly 1″ all around, giving you a finished flange to flange dimension 1-11/16″ bigger than the hole size (list size) you gave us.

When people are looking to get a replacement grille or register for their home, the easiest question would be “what size do I need?”, or is it….

These grilles are custom built to fit. Fit what you ask? Well, since your old grille is not likely one we built, we cannot go by the outside dimension (flange to flange) as they vary by builder and model.

The dimension we need is the Actual Hole in your wall. Also, take a few measurements each way at a variety of locations. This will let you (and us) know the size that will fit best.

Blog. Finally.

This is the start of our blog. We intend to write about topics from technical support, how to solve ventilation problems, and what we think is exciting in our world.
