      A:  Opening dimensions will vary among brick homes. Mine was less than 16x8. However this grill fit well in three openings, some tighter than others. All three openings had slightly different dimensions.

      A:  15 7/8 x 7 1/2 inches for the main body, 17" wide including the lintel.

        Q:What is Mill? I've never heard of Lintel or Mill in my 54 years.

        Answer This Question

        A:  1. A "lintel" is the architectural term for the member that spans over the top of an opening in a masonry wall. Its similar in function to a wood header in a wood frame wall. 2. "Mill finish" is the finish of something as it leaves a mill. That is, new but unpainted, without any special finishing. With metal goods, it generally means it is the natural color of the metal. Cast aluminum might be a somewhat dull aluminum color, not a bright shiny polished color and it is not painted. But certainly not heavily oxidized or covered with white rust. Aluminum sheet metal would tend to be brighter and smoother than cast of course, but not painted.

          A:  Mill is the unpainted color of galvanized steel or aluminum (silvery). Please call Technical Services at 800-211-9612 with any additional questions.

            I thought that the vents where cheaply made. The screen on the inside can be easily pushed open and therefore not effective against rodents. I returnEd the product back. Don't suggest to get them.

            The grills fit well in the existing openings. They open and close easily. The vents should do the job of shutting off the crawl space during the winter months. However the screen is not attached very well and is very thin. I assume the purpose of the screen is to keep “things” from getting under the house. Just installed in the last couple of weeks and already the screen in one corner of one vent has been pushed in by something, so that function of the grill doesn’t work very well. The screen design needs to be reconsidered in my opinion. Not sure they were really worth the $21 cost each. I bought three.

            Master Flow Grille -Style Foundation Vents
            I was glad that I found a foundation vent that closes, but I was very disappointed with it. It’s actually very flimsy and it doesn’t close all the way! The flap is made of a very thin metal ! So I returned them.
