    Does this fan grill come with holes or not?

    I sent an email to Scan last night but obviously they will be closed until monday or maybe tuesday. I wanted to order it as part of a today only order so I need to make the order before I am likely to get a reply it seems.

    Basically I am wondering if this radiator grill has holes already or of they need to be drilled. I'm not allowed to post a URL but this is the name and description from Scans website.

    STR120.2 - SCAN Stripes 240mm Satin Black Radiator Grill (15mm Spacing)
    Simple & stylish - Stripes is a classic design that will stand the test of time. 240mm Grill for radiators with 2x120mm fan(s).

    Use thes PDF Templates below for positioning your Grill. Print it out and use it to drill holes! The main difference in our grills compared with other well known brands on the market are simply this.... Our PDF's are perfect for the application above as Our grills actually fit the 15mm radiators perfectly..

    The one thing which this grill is designed to do is FIT Radiators and fit them good, others can't even get that right!

    Introducing our latest Stipes Design Radiator Grill for 120, 240, 360 and 480 Radiators with 15mm Hole Spacing.

    The picture shows that it does have holes however the description says that "Use thes PDF Templates below for positioning your Grill. Print it out and use it to drill holes!"... but the PDF isnt below or anywhere on the page as far as I can tell.

    Thanks to anyone who can help

    That drill your holes bit means drill holes for the grill to attach to your case/item/whatever. I'm 100% sure it's already pre-drilled

    It's a copy of the description from WCUK (maybe somewhere else who knows?) who also don't have the PDF template linked

    I think this is the template.

    Ah okay, I thought it was possibly something like that but wanted to double check after seeing that the description was a bit off too. It would be pretty simple to just use the grill itself as a template wouldn't it? I guess the paper template just avoids any risk of scratching grill if you were using it as the template?

    Thanks a lot for the fast reply and link to the pdf too, much appreciated.

    Yep probably when you drill the hole the powdercoat on the holes will come off so using a template would avoid that happening, although the screws would hide it anyway but it's nice to not damage things
