Measure the opening
Remove the old register and measure the clear inside width and length of the duct opening.
Floor matching, explained
A recessed metal frame holds a removable tray. Add a matching piece of your finished floor to the tray, place it into the frame and keep the vent visually connected to the surrounding surface.
The surrounding floor continues inside the removable tray
From duct opening to finished floor
The vent size is based on the opening in the floor. The matching material comes from your flooring project, which helps the insert follow the same colour, pattern and direction.
Remove the old register and measure the clear inside width and length of the duct opening.
Select Sandtex Black for a strong outline or Sandtex White for a lighter frame.
Cut and secure a compatible offcut of the finished flooring inside the removable tray.
Set the tray into the frame. It remains removable for access and cleaning.
Product anatomy
The product is built as a metal frame with a removable recessed tray. The flooring insert covers the centre while the perimeter remains open for airflow.
One vent, many floor materials
The final insert should be prepared to fit the tray and remain within the product’s stated thickness limit. Confirm compatibility before installation.
Black or White
The matching floor insert does most of the visual work. The frame finish determines whether the vent has a bold outline or a lighter edge.
Questions before ordering
The centre tray is recessed so it can hold a properly prepared piece of the surrounding finished floor. The outer metal frame remains visible and the open perimeter allows airflow.
No. Use a matching offcut from your flooring installation so the direction, colour, pattern and finish coordinate with the surrounding floor.
The tray can be used with compatible tile, stone, hardwood, engineered wood, vinyl, laminate and carefully prepared carpet inserts.
Yes. The centre tray remains removable after installation for access and cleaning.
Remove the old register and measure the clear inside width and length of the duct opening. Order by that nominal opening size, not by the outside dimensions of the old cover.
Sandtex Black creates a stronger modern outline. Sandtex White is a lighter option that works well with pale tile, stone and other light floors.
