 Front Flange Gable Vents are the easiest vents to install.

https://onyxxteriors.com/info/front-flange-vent-install.php



Applying nails or screws through the face of the nail fin has been the common for so many years.

If applying wood trim over the flange, this will look OK.

But, to use the flange as the vent trim, maybe not.


The alternative is to utilize and take advantage of these vents having such a sturdy aluminum frame.

First, insert a 4" or longer screw shaft on the drill being used.

Then, standing in front of the vent, turn the drill pointing to the left.

Place the screw end up behind a louver face and drill it right through the vent wall.

That is if there is wood framing around the wall opening.

If there is no wood framing to attach to from the sides, then install the framing first.

That is, if, the hidden fastener look is desired.


And back to this being the easiest vent to install...

With a full inch and a half of faced flange, the hole does not have to be perfectly cut.

The flange is designed to cover gaps, wavers and flaws.


Just insert the vent into the hole in the wall.

It will stop once the front flange is tight to the wall surface.

If leveling needs corrected, measure, not level.

Very few homes are perfectly level.

And the eye looks for opposing lines to be level with.

 Installing Gable Vents Made Easier

https://onyxxteriors.com/info/install.php


We can show you how to hide the fasteners...

The manor in which gable and attic vents are installed is dependent upon the flange type chosen.

Each wall is set up different and so is the vent setting.

Choose a flange type to see install options.

 Choosing the screening for an attic vent

https://www.onyxxteriors.com/info/screen.php





The bug screen of fiberglass is common but never good if there are too many wasps and grasshoppers to chew through it.  Aluminum bug screen lasts much longer even with the heat and cold elements.


Wire mesh can be added to the aluminum screen for larger critters such as raccoons and squirrels and birds.  


Or the non vented is just a black metal backing to prevent air and water intrusion completely.  Your choice.  Fully customizable.
