Beyond Builder-Grade: Custom Look and Feel Vent Covers
When upgrading your space, even the smallest details make a big difference. One of the most overlooked opportunities to elevate your interior? Vent covers.
Often dismissed as purely functional, vent covers are actually a design detail that—when chosen with care—can add a touch of refinement that goes far beyond standard or builder-grade. Swapping out basic grilles for premium, design-forward covers is one of the simplest ways to upgrade your home’s finish without a major renovation.
If you're replacing builder-grade finishes, remodeling with intention, or specifying elevated hardware for clients, here’s why Reggio Register is the designer’s choice.
The Problem with Builder-Grade and Big Box Vent Covers
Most homes come with basic vent covers that are stamped from thin steel or molded from plastic. They’re:
- Lightweight and flimsy
- Plain and utilitarian in design
- Prone to rust, bending, and damage
- Limited in size and style options
Even higher-priced options from big box stores rarely break away from the mass-produced mold. They may mimic premium looks, but they don’t match the substance, craftsmanship, or customization of truly elevated vent registers.
The Reggio Difference: Built to Be Seen—and Felt
At Reggio Register, we believe your home’s details should reflect its personality. That’s why our vent covers are made with artistry, weight, and intention—not stamped from a sheet.
Here's what sets us apart:
