Can anyone here tell me where I can get eggcrate louvers in Manhattan? I am trying to look for information online, but I can't seem to find any.

I tried Home Depot, both in Chelsea and Midtown, and they don't carry it.

I need a 1' x 4' piece.

Thanks.

I don't know what area in the city you are, but some good places to try:

-Building Supply
-HVAC Supply
-Electrical Supply
-ACE Hardware (they have great stuff in stock)

By eggcrate do you mean lighting diffusers, which alot of people use to put frags in? It should be the the lighting fixture section and comes in 4' by 2' pieces for around $10 if I remember.
If you ask for eggcrate they'll say that they don't carry it at home depot.

In different Home Depots it is carried in one of either two departments. You'll find it where Celestin mentioned (also, as stated, it is light diffuser) in the fluorescent lighting section, or it is also carried in the tile section, where they sell ceiling tiles for drop ceilings.

Yeah, I asked for the eggcrates, and I explained to the sales associate who was helping me that they're light diffusers. The HDs here in Manhattan don't carry it, and there's a Home Depot close to me in Queens, but I'm not sure I'll be able to get to the store in time. It really sucks that HD isn't open 24 hours anymore.

Thanks. I will try those. Call them first. :)

Thanks for the information everyone.

I went to the Home Depot on Northern Blvd, but they only had the eggcrates in silver. :-(

I decided to just get a plexiglass sheet, and I'll just fashion my sump cover from it.

Once again, Thanks!
