The Clopay Window Inserts – Slate, Ultra‑Grain – REC14 is an OEM decorative grille designed to refresh or replace the window insert on compatible Clopay garage doors. Featuring the rectangular REC14 pattern and a Slate color that coordinates with Clopay’s Ultra‑Grain wood‑look finishes, this insert enhances curb appeal while maintaining a factory‑matched appearance. It’s commonly used as a replacement part or style upgrade on Clopay residential garage doors that accept snap‑in inserts and Ultra‑Grain finishes, including popular series such as Gallery Steel, Bridgeport Steel, Classic Steel, and Modern Steel. Always verify compatibility by door model, window type (short/long), and insert style code before ordering.
Installation typically involves removing the interior window retainer, swapping the exterior insert, and reinstalling the retainer—no repainting or drilling required in normal scenarios. For best results, follow Clopay’s door‑specific instructions and work from the interior side of the section while supporting the glazing; wear gloves and eye protection when handling glass. The Slate Ultra‑Grain finish is intended to visually match Clopay’s factory coatings; clean with mild soap and water only. This REC14 insert is intended for use with Clopay window frames and is not a universal part for non‑Clopay doors.
