This Kent Design 114 1/4F panel is a decorative metal grille finished in Flat Black, built for cabinet door inserts, furniture openings, and architectural screens where the hardware should disappear into the frame rather than draw attention to itself.
Most grille finishes — antique brass, pewter, satin nickel — carry a metallic tone that stays visible once the door is closed. Flat Black does the opposite. Against a dark interior or a painted cabinet, this finish lets the grille plane drop back so the opening reads as shadow rather than as hardware. That quality makes it the natural pairing for matte black pulls and hinges, for painted cabinetry in charcoal or navy or deep green, and for any application where the goal is a clean face rather than a decorative accent.
The 1 inch by 1/4 inch mesh is a four-to-one rectangle, not a square. Oriented with the long dimension running horizontally the panel reads as a stack of ruled lines with open space between them. Rotated ninety degrees it becomes a column of vertical bars. That directional quality is a design choice built into the opening dimensions, and it is worth confirming the intended orientation before the panel is trimmed and set. Round wire at .072 inch diameter is substantial enough to hold its shape without bowing across a wide frame, and the curved section of a round wire tends to shed visible surface marks more readily than a flat section would.
This panel suits contemporary, industrial, and transitional cabinetry where a dark, non-reflective grille face is the right visual choice. It fits naturally into media cabinets that need an open face on a component bay, laundry enclosures, pantry door inserts, and furniture pieces where the grille is a structural part of the look rather than a decorative detail applied on top of it. The 36 by 48 inch sheet is a wide, nearly square format that gives flexibility across a range of opening widths without leaving excessive waste on a single large door.
The openings are 1 inch in one direction and 1/4 inch in the other, so orientation matters. Set the long dimension horizontal for a line pattern; rotate it for a vertical bar effect.
Flat Black is the manufacturer's finish name for this panel. The base material on Kent Design grille records is not published in the product data, so the construction of the finish layer is not something that can be confirmed here.
Yes. The 114 1/4F series code identifies the pattern: 1 inch by 1/4 inch mesh, round wire, .072 inch diameter. The finish is the only variable across the family.
The 36 by 48 inch sheet is a stock size sold for cutting to fit. The number of openings it yields depends on your frame dimensions and how the directional pattern needs to align.
When the panel should read as shadow rather than surface, Flat Black on a directional 1 inch by 1/4 inch mesh is the finish and pattern combination that gets there.
