How to replace an existing register
When installing new floors, many overlook replacing existing floor registers with ones that complement their new flooring and home decor. Fortunately, this is something anyone can do themselves.
- Determine the size of the register. Remove the original vent cover to expose the ventilation opening. Measure the length and width of the opening. Subtract 1/8" to 1/4"(depending on how square the opening is) and this is the inside dimensions for the new floor registers. Reinstall old register until you get the new ones.
- Select an Imperial Register. Imperial Registers are designed to fit the standard openings used in most homes. A wide variety of designs and finishes are available.
- Unpack and Install. Imperial Registers come fully assembled. Simply drop into place.
