## Description

calimaero® VKE 5" Inch Dryer Vent Cover – Outdoor Stainless Steel Grille with Moving Flaps – Fits Only with Metal Ducts for HVAC & Dryer Systems - desertcart.com

Review: Decent - Bought these for a house on the beach, for dryer vents. Worked out good, vents still look good in the salt air, no rust spotting at all. They come with screws and a foam seal. Sized correctly to fit a 4" dryer vent. The flappers work as I tended, being pushed open when the dryer is on. Since it is metal the flaps are heavy enough to close, before being blow right back open 2 seconds later. This creates a noise similar to a steam train, as the vents blow open and slap shut every few seconds. Nothing wrong with the design, just the way it is. In our case the clients vents are behind the garage out of ear shot. If your vent is close to a open window, or pool area maybe, the noise may be annoying, and I would suggest using a fixed vent with a screen. Otherwise a good product, looks like it will last.
Review: An excellent vent and value for the money - This vent worked perfectly for a replacement and was easy to install. The steel and construction is excellent quality and will outlast the cheap plastic vent that came with the house. It does make a clicking sound though when the exhaust vents out and this could be just the way the dryer blows the air through the ducting because the air pressure isn’t constant. This really doesn’t matter to us because we can’t hear it in the house. I am happy that the vent shutters closed and stays that way even on very windy days and that it looks great on the outside wall.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: is this vent strong enough to hold up to a 2 horse power dust collector.  It’s roughly 1400-1500 cfm?**
A: its stainless steel so i do not see why it would not.

**Q: Can this be powder coated?**
A: I just went outside and looked at mine.  I have to wonder why anyone would want to change its' color.  However, It would have to be disassembled to paint it.   Thee is a metal rod and a spacer on the sides of each louver.  I cannot tell whether the spacers are metal, ceramic or a very hard plastic.  I suspect that, as and assembly, the unit would not work well after cooking the paint job at 400 degrees F for the appropriate amount of time.  It doesn't cost that much.  Try one and see what happens.  I like the look of stainless steel.

**Q: What size are the exterior mounting screws? I want to get the right size toggle bolt for the back.**
A: Don't use toggle bolts Stainless wood screws #10 x 1"

**Q: I need a dryer vent cover that has screws with 5” distance between them. The dryer vent is 4”. Will the 5” version of this dryer vent work?**
A: The answer is both yes and no.  Any vent will work if it matches up to the ductwork it is mating with.  A five inch duct does not fit into a four inch duct or hole in the wall.  You will have to make an appropriate adjustment for it.  The screw holes are six and five eight inches apart.  Also, I have not seen a vent cover that needed to be attached with screws   I used silicon caulk around mine and into the screw holes as well.  Even my builder only used caulk when he installed the original plastic vent 10 years ago and it was a chore removing it from the wall.  Ditch the screws.  This is not just a vent cover.  About 12 inches of duct pipe is permantly attached just like the plastic ones.  If you just want a cover, you will have to cut it off with a tin snips.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Idea and Appearance -- Noisy Open-Close Operation
*by J***3 on November 20, 2025*

I love the appearance and usefulness of this vent cover. I had to remove the bottom flap to allow lint to fit through without clogging. I would have given it 5 stars, however it makes a noise when it flaps open and closed as the dryer runs making it sound like a ticking noise.
