What Customers Are Saying About Our Gable Vents

 "Why don't other gable vent makers make their vents smaller to fit the  opening?  I haven't figured that out.  But every time I get a vent I  have to saw and chisel the opening bigger just a little.  But this is  wasting my time.  Now that I know about your company I can just order  the size I need and I know it will be small enough to fit the framing.   This is my third gable vent order and every one has fit great.  Thank  You Very Much." 

Jeff Swhwenn
" Best vents I have bought in a while. I have been swindled many times in  the past about the best vents. But these are the real deal. The edges  are finished nice. The louvers stand up on their own. And there were no  screws or staples or even pop rivets showing so I don't know what holds  them together but they do look nice. ."

John Smith
" No that is not my real name. I had those adjustable silver vents in my  house. You know the ones that look like they are split or put together  down the middle. Well, the louvers or slats fell out one by one over the  years and they weren't really silver anymore. I wanted silver again,  but I was told how flimsy it was. I run across this place and they had  the sterling gray. The same color I had on my trim. That will work. I  also took note of the center of the vent not being split. The slats are  all one piece. "

Venting an attic through a gable wall is the most inexpensive and natural way.  Gable vents have worked for centuries to ensure a natural air flow through the attic to keep the space cooler and protect the home from early decay.  As Onyx Xteriors offers limitless colors, shapes and sizes on gable vents, you can actually design your custom gable vent to fit your visual needs and your home's air intake needs.  For basic shapes we offer triangle gable vents, square louver vents, round attic vents, octagon gable louvers, half round vent louver, tombstone gable wall vents, and cathedral wall gable vents.  These shaped gable vents are available in louvered and decorative.  Also in vented or functional and non vented or not functional.  The square vents may also be called rectangle gable vents and the round may be called circle gable vents.  These are the same.  We also offer many common sizes for triangle pitch and other shapes.  Triangle gable vents by pitch are usually measured by the base foot as seen below:

What about a different look?  Maybe there is cause for a more aggressive approach to designing the home. 

These are designed to add style and decor to the exterior of the home.  Applying a decorative vent to the front of the home can drastically change the appearance and overall feel. 

These were mirrored after the rays of the sun to bring brightness to the home's outer facade everyday.  Seeing a beautiful sunny day always brings a smile to faces.  Why not bring that same warm feeling to your home.  No matter the color you choose.  It still brightens. 

On a cool morning, step outside and feel the warmth and comfort given by a new day's rising sun.  This vent was created to fulfill every day with that same warm look for your home.  With the gentle sun rays radiating from the center bottom of the decorative vent. 

A true decorative gable vent with a gentle breeze flowing through the sun's rays.  The slats are solid and only open a half an inch for a slight venting. 

A more bold approach to attic ventilation.  The pinnacle of you home is right on top where the attic vent is.  The diamond shaped spindles are spaced according to size to give the best crown for the home.  Originally designed for the Native American feathered headdress.  But each person sees different things in it like a Rorschach test. 

Egyptians worshiped the sun in different ways.  They even drew it different.  We usually think of the rays reaching high to the heavens.  They saw it as the rays beaming down and washing over the Earth.  This decorative vent emanates this concept.   

Same calming appearance just in a different shape. 

Although commonly used as a wall vent, this can also be used as a window dressing by placing it over the half round void above the window.

Now, you know we saved the best for last.  For years, contractors have told homeowners there is no way to wrap or cap rounded or arched trim.  Guess what?  No matter if you are the installer or the customer, we have aluminum half round window trim.  It is pre sized and arched for your window trim.  And even better, we match you install preference of the color, finish and even the style.

Smooth Half Round Trim:  The smooth is what most installers use as a simple C-cap wrap.  The aluminum trim comes from the window, turns on the face of the wood trim and then proceeds back to the wall.  But, this comes already in one piece ready to snap into place and seal off. 

Striated Half Round Trim:  This striated trim has the brick mold bends in the face.  Some prefer to use the brake buddy for styling up their window and door trim. 

Curious, how can you bend or arch aluminum trim?  Well, we have a Striator.  It is a machine designed and build by our own engineers to apply the curve to the aluminum sheeting.  This roll form machine calculates the measures given by you for the outside of your curved trim and transposes them to the inside of the new rounded aluminum trim.  And when ordering the brick mold style, we use matching rollers to the brake buddy so everything matches and lines up.
