This Kent Design 286 S panel is a decorative metal grille for cabinet door frames, furniture openings, and architectural inserts where a close, even grid and a muted antiqued finish work together.
Wire style is the attribute that shifts a grille from woven-looking to architectural. Round wire reads as a soft grid because the curved surface scatters light in all directions. Square wire sharpens that, with flat faces and hard shadow lines at every crossing. Flat wire goes a step further: the wire face is wider relative to its thickness, so the grid reads as a pattern of broad stripes and precise openings rather than a lattice of thin lines. At a 3/8 inch mesh, that effect concentrates further because the solid material between openings is proportionally generous compared to a wider mesh. The result is a panel that reads denser and more finished than its open area alone would suggest.
Antique Pewter is a cool, gray-forward antiqued finish. Unlike the warm amber or brown tones of an antique brass or antique copper, pewter sits in a neutral-to-cool register that reads closer to aged iron or old silver. The antiquing treatment concentrates in the recesses of the pattern, leaving the flat faces of the wire lighter, which on flat wire means the contrast shows up as a clean face-to-shadow reading at each intersection. That pairing suits hardware and cabinet programs built around matte black, brushed nickel, or other cooler metal tones.
The combination of a tight 3/8 inch grid, a flat wire section, and a cool pewter finish makes this panel a natural match for traditional and transitional cabinetry where the grille opening should look substantial and considered rather than airy or open. It works well in pantry doors, display cabinet fronts, furniture pieces with framed door openings, and built-in enclosures where a decorative face is wanted without a large visual void. The 36 by 48 inch sheet is a landscape-format stock size, which suits wider openings or multiple narrower cuts from one panel.
Flat wire has a wider face relative to its thickness, so the grid reads as broader stripes of solid material rather than thin lines or crisp-cornered bars. It produces a denser, more planar look at the intersections.
Yes. The opening is 3/8 inch by 3/8 inch, an even square, so the panel has no preferred orientation from a pattern standpoint.
Antique Pewter is a cool gray-toned finish that sits well alongside matte black, brushed nickel, and other cool or neutral metal tones. It is a Kent Design finish name and is not guaranteed to match a same-named finish from another manufacturer.
It is Kent Design's pattern identifier for this wire configuration. Use it to confirm you are ordering the correct pattern when comparing across finishes or sheet sizes.
Choose this panel when the opening calls for a tight, flat-wire grid and a muted pewter tone that reads with cool-metal hardware programs.
