Give a gas fire pit or outdoor kitchen the ventilation it needs and a finished look at the same time with the Pave Tool Quick-E-Classic Vent 9.75 in x 2.9 in. The face is a geometric lattice cut through 10-gauge (1/8") stainless steel, a clean, understated pattern that sits well against stacked stone, block or stucco veneer. Behind it, 11 sq in of open airflow lets gas and heat escape the enclosure so the fire feature stays safe and code-compliant for years of outdoor use.
Key Features
-
11 sq in airflow: The lattice opening delivers the airflow that gas-appliance ventilation codes call for in an enclosed surround.
-
Will not rust, warp or fail: 10-gauge (1/8") high-grade stainless steel shrugs off heat from the burner and seasons of rain, snow and sun.
-
Classic lattice face: A geometric pattern that reads as a design detail on the finished wall rather than a utility grille.
-
Compact 9.75 x 2.9 in size: The low-profile face tucks into a single veneer course or a seat wall without dominating the elevation.
-
About Pave Tool: Pave Tool Innovators builds the Quick-E line of hardscape installation tools and fire-feature vents for professional installers.
How to Install It
Locate the vents before the veneer goes up. Follow your burner or fire-feature manufacturer’s ventilation guidance for the number and placement of vents, then leave a rough opening sized for the 9.75" x 2.9" face. Set the vent flush with the finished surface and keep the cavity behind it open so air moves freely between the burner compartment and the outside. Because the Classic Vent shares its gauge and stainless construction with the Quick-E-Fire Vent, you can mix the lattice and flame patterns across an outdoor kitchen and keep a matched finish. Wipe the face with a damp cloth to keep it bright.

Pave Tool Quick-E-Classic Vent, 9.75" x 2.9" face, model NT1030. 10-gauge (1/8") stainless steel gas ventilation grille with a geometric lattice face for fire pit and grill surrounds. 11 sq in free airflow per unit. Low-profile format for a single veneer course or seat-wall face. Take-off: vent count per the burner manufacturer's ventilation requirement for enclosure volume and BTU rating, placed low and high on opposing faces per that guidance. Same gauge and construction as the Quick-E-Fire Vent for mixed-pattern installs.
Key Features
- Airflow: 11 sq in per vent, code-compliant for gas-appliance ventilation when the count matches the burner spec.
- Material: 10-gauge (1/8") high-grade stainless. No rust, warp or failure under sustained heat and freeze-thaw.
- Face: 9.75" x 2.9" lattice pattern. Fits a single course; minimal impact on the elevation.
- Finish: Stainless. Pairs with any veneer color and with the Fire Vent pattern on the same job.
- Line: Pave Tool Quick-E fire-feature accessories, sold per unit.
Installation
Set vent positions on the layout before veneer. Leave a rough opening for the 9.75" x 2.9" face, keep the cavity open to the burner compartment, and do not pack mortar or core fill behind the vent. Set the face flush with the finished veneer plane. Distribute multiple vents per the burner manufacturer's spacing. Damp-wipe the stainless after grouting.
Spec Notes
The lattice face is the lower-profile option in the Quick-E vent line, which makes it the default for seat walls, grill islands and any elevation where a 3.5" tall grille would read too heavy. Airflow per unit is the same 11 sq in as the 11" x 3.5" Fire Vent, so the take-off count does not change when you swap patterns; only the rough opening does. List vents as their own line item, grouped by enclosure, so the mason sets openings on the first course. Stainless means no paint, no touch-up and no replacement cycle to carry in a maintenance contract, and the burner's heat does not discolor it. Pave Tool offers this pattern in other face sizes; this listing is the 9.75" x 2.9" single unit. Store shipping weight 3.3 lb. Model NT1030, sold per unit.
