 6 inch deep Square Gable Vent By Measure J Flange

https://www.ventgable.com/6-inch-deep-Square-Gable-Vent-By-Measure-J-Flange_p_635.html Measure the square metal gable vent wall opening for your order size as we will deduct 1/2 inch in height and 1/2 inch in width. This slightly smaller size ensures a good fitting gable vent. All aluminum products need a 1/4 inch of room around the product before meeting the wooden wall frame. This allows for expansion and contraction of the wood wall. The J channel flange is commonly used with siding to cover the siding ends when they are slid into the J channel receiver of the vent. Once you slide the square metal gable vent over the opening, the flange on the back will stop it flush to the wall and can be fastened in a number of ways determined by the vent installer. Then sealed off to prevent intruding water if necessary.
