Where to buy metal grills for custom cabinet door?
Good morning.
I am moving into a new condo and am building a semi-custom cabinet setup for my audio equipment. I'll be buying some used normal cabinets, removing the doors and building the new ones. I would like to use the metal grate-style doors that allow heat exchange but still hide most of the inside.
Any ideas about how I can DIY these doors, ie, where can I buy the metal grate style inserts? (think "Salamander" equipment doors, but a lot cheaper. For a specific example, google "salamander style 221.").
Any and all help is much appreciated.

I was thinking something like this. http://www.hartandcooley.com/products/l-series/linear-diffuser-for-ceiling-sidewall-or-floor-applications?url=grilles-registers-and-diffusers-grd%2Fcommercial-grds%2Flinear-diffusers . There are other company's including web dealers that should handle this and other similar items. You are not in the trade so Hart & cooley may not deal with you directly. |
If you can remove the center panels from the existing doors then replace them with perforated sheet metal available form your local metal supplier. Any reputable outfit will even cut them to size for you. Then either have them sprayed in the desired color or even better powder coat them before installation. IMS Above just one option, search your local area. Best of luck Peter |
