Crafted from UV-stabilized ABS plastic, it offers rust and rot resistance for long-lasting outdoor durability. Its shallow ¼" recess allows installation on slim concrete block walls where standard vents won’t fit. Installation is a breeze from the outside—no crawl space entry required—using adhesive or screws. This vent cover provides a flush, weathertight seal and serves as a direct replacement for traditional foundation vents, backed by over two decades of crawl space expertise. ## Description Seal foundation vents completely with a low-profile recessed cover built for thin walls. The shallow depth design (¼" recess) is ideal for thin foundation walls, concrete block construction, or any application where a standard-depth recessed cover won't fit. Installs over a standard 8"H × 16"W foundation opening from outside — the body sits nearly flush while the 9¾" × 17¼" exterior flange creates a finished, sealed appearance. Made from UV-stabilized ABS plastic — rust-free, rot-free, and weatherproof. Secure with construction adhesive, Tapcon screws, or both. No crawl space entry required. Available in Black and White. From Crawl Space Door Systems — crawl space specialists since 1996, Virginia Beach, VA. ## Features - FITS STANDARD 8"H × 16"W OPENINGS — ¼" SHALLOW RECESS FOR THIN WALLS — Inside dimensions are 7¾"H × 15"W; outer flange measures 9¾"H × 17¼"W. Designed for thin foundation walls, concrete block, or anywhere a standard 1¼"-deep recessed cover won't fit. Measure your wall thickness before ordering. - INSTALLS FROM OUTSIDE — NO CRAWL SPACE ENTRY REQUIRED — Mounts directly over your existing foundation opening from outside. Secure with construction adhesive, Tapcon screws, or both. Done in minutes — no contractor needed. - RUST-FREE ABS PLASTIC BUILT FOR OUTDOOR USE — UV-stabilized ABS resists rust, rot, fading, and weather damage for years of maintenance-free performance — even in direct sun, rain, and high-humidity crawl space conditions. - REPLACES ANY STANDARD FOUNDATION VENT — Works as a direct replacement for old louvered vents, automatic vents, or screened vents. The recessed body seats into the opening and the flange overlaps the surrounding wall for a permanent, weathertight seal. - CRAWL SPACE SPECIALISTS SINCE 1996 — Part of a complete encapsulation system from Crawl Space Door Systems. Available in Black and White — paintable with any plastic-adherent paint to match your foundation.
