Go Behind the Scenes in the Making of Reggio Registers
Handcrafted Quality. High-Tech Precision.
High-tech machinery and old-fashioned craftsmanship are the foundation of Reggio products. They arrive at your doorstep having passed through both precision equipment and careful human hands so they reflect our high standard.
Take a peek behind the curtain to see what went into the making of our vent cover designs.
Behind the Scenes: Register Design
Reggio turns to some of the biggest trends in patterns to inspire our registers. The movement toward cohesive coordination between patterns and finishes makes it only natural to draw from broader design elements when creating new register styles.
Popular design motifs in flooring, tile, and textiles often serve as inspiration, offering vent cover designs that harmonize with current geometric and decorative trends while still carrying the timeless appeal of classic design. This balance ensures the patterns remain both relevant and enduring.
Behind the Scenes: Manufacturing
Many of our intricate designs require hands-on work before they are ready to ship, but that’s no big deal for our craftspeople, several of whom have been creating and finishing the products—by hand—for 20+ years.
Laser Cutting Machine
The process begins at our laser cutter where the intricate patterns are cut with precision. Next, the registers are sanded by hand with an orbital sander to take off burrs and round the edges. Often hand filing is required between the slats to ensure smoothness on interior edges.

Powder coat is an electromagnetic process where a dry polyester resin is sprayed onto the metal registers then baked at 400°F. It produces a colored finish that is rust resistant and far more durable than paint. Besides the laser cutter, powder coat is the only other process done by machine.

Reggio’s Dedication to Quality
All said, creating a register is a very personal process with customization and human care all along the way. Reggio is dedicated to ensuring high-end style, cutting-edge technology, and customization for each of our products.
"As always, customers can expect custom-level craftsmanship and customizable options like thickness and lip" says Brian Jacobsen, Director of Operations at Reggio Register. "We continue to innovate in response to emerging trends and technology that increases efficiency."
