This Kent Design 116 1/4 P panel is a decorative metal grille built for cabinet door frames, furniture openings, and architectural inserts where the face should read as a layered grid of lines rather than an even square mesh.
The 1 inch by 1/4 inch mesh is the defining geometry here. At four times as wide as it is tall, each opening reads as a horizontal slot rather than a square cell, and when those slots stack across the panel the eye perceives horizontal banding rather than a neutral grid. That gives the panel a strong visual direction even in a static installation. Set in a cabinet door, the opening pulls the eye across the width of the piece. Set in a tall narrow opening, it creates contrast between the vertical proportions of the frame and the horizontal movement of the pattern inside it. The 36 by 48 inch sheet is oriented landscape, so it suits wide openings or applications where several panels will be cut from one sheet.
Antique Pewter is a cool gray antiqued finish, darker and more neutral than Antique Brass or Antique Copper, without the warm undertone of bronze-family finishes. The aging sits in the recesses between the wires, with the raised surfaces left lighter, which is what gives a pewter-toned antiqued finish its sense of depth rather than flat gray. Square wire at .063 inch is what makes that work here: the flat faces of a square section hold the lighter tone on the surface of the wire, and the corners pick up a crisp shadow line at every intersection. Round wire on the same finish would produce a softer, more diffuse result. The combination of the directional mesh and the square wire section produces a pattern that is both geometric and textured.
This grille suits cabinetry and built-in work where a gray or silver-toned hardware palette is already in play, and where the other surfaces call for something more muted than a bright or warm antiqued finish. The horizontal mesh makes it a natural fit for wide doors, bookcase inserts, media enclosures, and radiator or equipment covers where the panel sits in a landscape-proportioned frame. Designers working in a transitional or contemporary interior with a pewter or matte nickel fixture palette will find the finish coordinates naturally across those tones without competing with warmer metals nearby. Cabinet shops cutting this panel to fit custom door frames benefit from the 36 by 48 inch sheet size, which gives a generous working area for single wide openings or multiple narrower ones from one piece.
Yes. The openings are 1 inch wide and 1/4 inch tall in the standard orientation, so the panel reads as horizontal lines. Rotate it 90 degrees and it reads as vertical lines instead. Orientation is a design decision with this mesh.
Antique Pewter is a cool gray tone. It sits in a different color family from the warm brown of Antique Brass and the red-brown of Antique Copper. It is closer in tone to Antique Nickel but darker and more muted.
Square wire has flat faces and corners rather than a curved profile, so it produces a sharper shadow line at each intersection and the grid looks more precisely geometric. Round wire on the same pattern would have a softer, more woven appearance.
36 by 48 inches.
When the opening calls for a cool pewter tone and a panel that reads as horizontal movement rather than a neutral grid, the 116 1/4 P in Antique Pewter delivers both in one stock sheet.
