ACGI Grille Systems feature two categories—Grille Dowel Series (GD) and Grille Backer Series (GB). Both systems are available in solid wood or wood veneer (depending on blade size and design requirements). Blade sizes are typically 1!⁄""–3#⁄$" deep (for depths greater than 3#⁄$" see our Ba%e 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 Dowel Series 1 [GD1] is a panel factory assembled with wood dowels at 12" O.C. This series offers a flexible dowel option. Dowels are painted flat black (other finishes available). GD1 panels suspend with quick-release dowel clips (DC-101) on #&⁄'(" HD T-Grid, and can also be attached to wall sheathing or furring strips. The clips remove easily for plenum access. To meet seismic requirements, clips are designed with holes for field-installed wire. Panels are installed with #⁄$"–1" reveal between panel ends and at perimeter walls or headers.

ACOUSTICSNRC of 0.60 (1" insulation). NRC of 0.80 (2" insulation).

Grille panels are a traditional product o$ering 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 %berglass insulation in bags, mats, or duct liner.

WOOD SPECIESGrille Panels are available in a large variety of wood veneers to meet design requirements.
