GRILLE SYSTEMS

v2.0

Backer Series 1
ACGI Grille Systems feature two categories—Grille Backer Series (GB)
and Grille Dowel Series (GD). Both systems are available in solid wood
or wood veneer (depending on blade size and design requirements).
Blade sizes are typically 13⁄8"–31⁄2" deep (for depths greater than 31⁄2"
see our Baffle Systems). Grille panels are assembled with four to ten
blades per foot. Panels are nominal 1' or 2' width by varying lengths
in 1' increments (custom widths and lengths are available).
Grille Backer Series 1 [GB1] is panelized with factory-attached wood
backers at 12" O.C. Backers are painted flat black (other finishes
are available). GB1 panels install by screwing through the backers
between blades. Ceiling applications are suspended from 15⁄16" HD
T-Grid, and attached to walls using sheathing or furring strips. Panels
are installed with 1⁄2"–1" reveal between panel ends and at perimeter
walls or headers. Optional notched backers provide additional
strength and stability for wall applications with blade depths greater
than 2". For post-installation access the attachment screws can be
removed, or optional suspension can be provided for regular access.

ACOUSTICS
NRC of 0.60 (1" insulation).
NRC of 0.80 (2" insulation).
Grille panels are a traditional product offering the warmth of wood plus acoustical treatment. A large amount of open area
allows sound to pass unobstructed into the plenum space and/or acoustic insulation behind the panels. Consequently,
acoustical performance of a wood grille is determined by the properties of the absorbing medium. This medium is often
fiberglass insulation in bags, mats, or duct liner.
WOOD SPECIES
Grille Panels are available in a large variety of wood veneers to meet design requirements.
FINISHES
Grille Panels can be finished in any of our standard finish options or custom finishes.
FIRE RATING
Our veneered products can be provided with a Class A rated core [ASTM-E84].
DELIVERY, STORAGE & HANDLING

WARRANTY
All materials supplied by ACGI are guaranteed against manufacturing defects for one year. Wood stains and colorings can
