Hi again,

I thought that this would be the easy part of putting my kitchen back
together... looking for a wall mount register/damper in some kind of
bright metal finish, e.g. chrome/stainless/nickel. Would prefer
stainless if at all possible. duct size is 6"x8". Figured a quick
google would provide me with what I needed. Was wrong. Would prefer to
buy a style that I can buy later matching but in brass for the rest of
the house, as most of them need to be replaced anyway.

Anyone know where I can find them? I've found a few places that sell
what I'm looking for, usually chrome plated, but none in the sizes I need.

thanks

nate

nope, nothing there...

seems that this is the source for all things upscale and register-y
(well, perhaps not all, but at least a good portion of the ones I've
found while googling seem to be sourced from these guys)

I've dropped them a line to see where I can actually buy their products,
as their web site *does* list a complete assortment of duct sizes,
including the apparently hard to find 6x8. (odd that I was able to find
a white one at That Orange-Colored Store, but upon reflection I decided
not to install it as it would just be wrong to hang it over the nice new
stainless steel fridge... well, that, and I finished painting at about
12:30 the night before the fridge was delivered. That might have
something to do with it.)

This page has a whole bunch of links to sites with registers of various
types: http://www.period-homes.com/phdb540.htm

I gave up when try to find something similar. I caved and went
with the generic white finish.

I considered trying to spray that with some metallic paint but
didn't actually get a round tuit ;-)

The white looked better than we thought it would and we're
happy with it as is.

If the old ones aren't mangled, they likely could be replated in nickel,
(which I prefer to chrome) brass, or whatever you want.

Some of them are, and are rusty to boot.

The plot thickens... I started measuring the rest of the house last
night, to make sure I wouldn't have the same issue elsewhere... there's
a good number of *FIVE* inch high vents throughout the upstairs.

sheesh, how'm I gonna replace THOSE...
