Iron Works Patterned Hit & Miss Vent – Antique Black

£63.84 – £88.00Price range: £63.84 through £88.00 +VAT

Clear

The Iron Works Patterned Hit & Miss Vent in Antique Black is a decorative cast iron ventilation grille produced in the classic interlocking foliate pattern of Victorian ironwork, finished in an antique black coating that reads as period ironwork at a glance. The combination of decorative surface pattern and functional airflow control makes this one of the more versatile ventilation products available for heritage and listed building applications.

The grille operates as a true hit and miss vent: a sliding plate on the reverse moves across the apertures to open or close airflow as required, allowing ventilation to be regulated without removing or replacing the grille. The face presents the interlocking foliate pattern — a repeating arrangement of stylised leaf and stem forms common to Victorian decorative ironwork — within a flat outer frame with integral fixing holes for face or flush mounting. Available in two sizes: 225mm × 82mm (single-course format) and 225mm × 150mm (double-course format).

The Antique Black finish is the most versatile of the three available finishes and the most appropriate choice for the majority of heritage applications — cast iron ironwork in Victorian and Edwardian buildings was almost universally blackened, and the antique finish replicates this without the high gloss of a painted surface. It is the correct specification for listed buildings, conservation area properties, churches, and any building where period authenticity in the ironwork is required.

For listed building specifications or conservation enquiries, call 0333 987 4452.

Do your steel brackets have a protective coating?

Do your steel brackets have a protective coating?

Yes. All our mild steel brackets are supplied in either silver or black zinc plate. This coating protects the metal however, both will need painting prior to installation.

We have chosen to use zinc plating for two reasons; firstly that it is a more environmentally friendly than galvanising and secondly that it does not block up the threaded part of the rise and fall cups in the way that galvanising does.
