Details


The DryerWallVent is built tough in the USA. This sleek, low profile, premium performance vent provides maximum airflow and minimizes lint buildup. The deep drawn heavy-gauge Galvalume® steel housing with a lighter weight Galvalume steel angled damper are powder coated and corrosion-resistant to maintain their shine. The damper's integrated magnets keep it closed when the dryer is not in use, preventing birds and rodents from entering the dryer exhaust system. The wider opening allows the dryer to perform at peak efficiency and provides easy access for vent cleaning and maintenance. The built-in drip edge protects against the elements. The DryerWallVent is available in Black, White, Brown and Tan powder coated colors, as well as a Primed Finish for you to custom paint in any color to match your exterior.

Your home deserves a better wall vent. Select the new DryerWallVent for longevity, performance and aesthetics. This low-profile vent is specifically designed for efficiently venting a dryer, though it can work for other applications like bath vents as well.

Longevity: Typical wall vents come in cheap plastic or lightweight metal that will not weather well, are easily crushed or mangled, and can become real eyesores. Your home is built to last a lifetime and so should your home’s components. Choose DryerWallVent for the long haul. Its housing is made of heavy-gauge, deep-drawn galvanized steel. The lighter weight damper is composed of Galvalume® steel with a stainless-steel hinge pin. For extra protection, each DryerWallVent is powder-coated with weather-resistant PPG Envirocron®.

Aesthetics: The DryerWallVent’s low profile and clean lines, combined with four stock powder coating color choices (white, tan, brown, and black), help it blend into the home’s exterior, though it can also be used as an architectural accent. Deep draw manufacturing makes for a sleek housing that doesn’t compete with exterior aesthetics. When you replace unsightly vents with the DryerWallVent, you’ll improve curb appeal and allow your beautiful home to shine.

Installation: Combine all these benefits, longevity, performance and aesthetics, with ease of installation and you’ve got a great new project that you can quickly complete. Standard installation is straightforward and can be finished in 5 simple steps. The optional backing plate install for wider wall openings requires only three additional steps.

Summary of Benefits:

  • Allows the dryer to operate at peak efficiency
  • Can help reduce drying times, wear and tear
  • A large, accessible opening makes cleaning and maintenance a breeze
  • Installs easily in lap siding, stucco, brick and other conventional sidings
  • Blends into exteriors with clean lines and low profile
  • Meets or exceeds manufacturer and code requirements
  • Provides extra protection from weather and pests
  • Stands the test of time with heavy gauge steel and powder coating

Seals well

by Dee| 3/20/2026 12:29 pm

I bought and installed this dryer vent hoping for a better flapper seal in the winter. We hit 22 below last night and no frost built up on the dryer duct where it enters the house, unlike the plastic dryer vent, which always resulted in frost at warmer temps.

Good seal

by HomeDepot Customer| 3/20/2026 12:29 pm

Was having a lot of air come back into the house with my plastic multi louvered vent. This door seals much better. Also, it seems to allow more air to pass through it. Hoping that will decrease drying time.

Well built, seems to work well

Stucco is around the vents from the bathrooms so removing the existing plastic vents isn'tr ealistic. I pushed the collar into the existing vent hole. Holds it securely so I didn't use any screws. It is secure enough that I caulked around the back, then the sides. Also pumped caulk into the screw holes to act as an adhesive and to keep bugs from getting into the holes. The run is about 14 feet of rigid metal ducting with one 45 and vent responds as in the picture.

Great vent

by DIY Extraordinaire| 3/20/2026 12:29 pm

It’s extremely well made (heavy duty), it doesn’t protrude too far out from the wall. My critique is with the backside of the vent isn’t long enough to extend from the exterior wall into the interior wall, and its opening is sized to accommodate a male connection to a 3-inch aluminum duct. It would be nice if there were two versions which would accept either a male or female end of existing ductwork. With that said I’m extremely happy with this product.

Works well

by Sheila| 3/20/2026 12:29 pm

This replaced an old plastic vent that was always getting jammed up with lint. This new vent installed easily and is working well. We will keep checking it over time, but so far it is doing the job.

Well built

by Happy Camper| 3/20/2026 12:29 pm

The vents are well built. The magnets are just the right amount to keep closed when not in use. No birds, no pests, etc. Easy to remove 1 magnet for a bathroom vent to work properly. Bought 3.

Excellent vent

by Brad| 3/20/2026 12:29 pm

Very robust and high quality. Pay a little extra for this great vent. After years of cheap plastic replacement vents, I wish I had found this product much sooner!

Best vent

by RoofingDirect Customer| 3/20/2026 12:29 pm

This is the best vent available.The design, materials of construction, and method of operation are top notch and it's a great buy. The seal against backdraft and "critter" entry is wonderful. Service by Roofing Direct is top notch!

WOW, Great Vent cover

by Gretchen| 2/26/2019 12:00:00 am

This cover is far superior to the stuff on the shelf. Its strong metal, not thin. Sleek and will be perfect. Good finish too. I ordered it yesterday and got it today! Super fast shipping.

Very Nice vent

by Sherman Loges| 12/9/2015 12:00:00 am

We installed this with the close 90 and dryer box 625. The installation was pretty easy once we reconfigured the wall to accommodate things. Keep in mind we are remodeling a building into a house and have done extensive modifications, so there was wood where this needed to be mounted. We are in a deep freeze right now, my Son noticed that even though the pipe is not connected inside we still were not getting significant back draft. Great set of products!!

Well Made

by Larry Yates| 12/13/2015 12:00:00 am

The weather has been too bad to install your product but overall it looks very well made. I am sure it will work well.

Well built, easy to install

by BJ Nicholls| 7/5/2015 12:00:00 am

The metal construction on this vent is heavy gauge, and nicely powdercoated. The brown color is a little orange compared to most chocolate brown architectural colors. Rigid aluminum duct fit nicely into the vent making installation easy.

Wall vent retrofit

by david| 2/18/2017 12:00:00 am

After finishing our laundry room years ago, I finally found a worthy replacement for the standard, cheap wall vent for our dryer. The Dryerbox wall vent is a well engineered and easy to install item that works like a dream and looks good too. I would absolutely recommend this to a friend.

Very Satisfied

by Chuck| 8/14/2015 12:00:00 am

I am very happy with this product. It was easy to install and looks great. More importantly, it has noticeably improved the efficiency of our dryer. The Dryerbox staff was extremely helpful in answering questions that I had prior to purchasing

Well Made

by Patrick| 9/13/2015 12:00:00 am

Always hated the ugly vent on a very visible section of my house. Saw this in a magazine and am very happy with the quality of the vent. The last wall vent I will need for my house. Easy to install and seals great when not in use.

The Best

by Geoff| 12/9/2015 12:00:00 am

Bought two of these for my dryer and bathroom fans. Both installed easily. I live in a very windy area so Rick sent me a few extra magnets for the bathroom vent to keep it from opening. It's way better than anything at the big box stores!

The Best

by Robert| 1/17/2016 12:00:00 am

This is a far better product than you can get at the big box stores. You will not have any insects or rodents entering your dryer vent. The tolerances are right on the money, so no cold air entering your home when not in use. It will save you money and it looks great.

Solid

by Kevin| 3/14/2017 12:00:00 am

It looks great and was easy to install. Since it is metal, you can screw it into the wall for a solid mount. I know I won't have to think about my dryer vent again.

Surprisingly Great Product

by charlie saul| 12/11/2015 12:00:00 am

Well made, ingenious yet simple design is effective at keeping critters out, great value. Came quick. Easy for homeowner to install. Even though I have lots of construction experience, your installation video was quite helpful! Really should be in all construction supply stores for new installations as well as for replacements.

Super

by David| 10/15/2015 12:00:00 am

The Metal Dyer vent works very well and the magnets keep it closed - the metal is very solid - I like things that are quality made and just work as they should - that's what this vent does and is!

Solidly built product

by Matt| 12/25/2015 12:00:00 am

This dryer vent far exceeded my expectations. It is very well built and much nicer than anything I was able to find in the big box stores. It also looks good. In my opinion, well worth the price.

Simply Great

by KLS| 2/22/2017 12:00:00 am

This is a well built product. Simple is design but great functionally. Will recommend to everyone I can. Have built houses for sometime and now we do energy retrofits. This one is on our listfor every job from now on. Will be ordering more...

Sleek

by Captain T| 12/16/2015 12:00:00 am

It's hard to get excited about dryer vents. Who cares. But- It's not plastic. Should last a long time. It works great.

Simple but Effective !

by Jace| 12/26/2015 12:00:00 am

Way better than Big Box PVC ! The only thing better would be stainless steel, that would be premium plus !

Q-wality Vent

by Wylie| 2/12/2017 12:00:00 am

A very well-constructed vent which I hope will survive the Labrador puppy's chewing phase better than the plastic one originally installed. He went through two of those.
