I'm not sure what your question is, but your implementation is slightly off...

• Don't extend from JFrame, you're not adding any new functionality to the class and it's not a good candidate for performing custom painting against, as it's not double buffered and it has a JRootPane and contentPane between frame's surface and the user. Also, you run the risk of painting under the frames decorations. Have a look at How can I set in the midst? and How to get the EXACT middle of a screen, even when re-sized for more details.
• Don't override paint of top level containers (or generally), see the previous point. Instead, start with a component which extends from something like JPanel and override paintComponent instead. Also don't forget to call the paint methods super method in order to maintain the paint chain contract. Have a look at Painting in AWT and Swing and Performing Custom Painting for more details
• Don't rely on magic numbers, instead, use known values to make decisions about what you want to do.

import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;

public class Grid {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        new Grid();
    }

    public Grid() {
        EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                try {
                    UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
                } catch (ClassNotFoundException | InstantiationException | IllegalAccessException | UnsupportedLookAndFeelException ex) {
                    ex.printStackTrace();
                }

                JFrame frame = new JFrame("Testing");
                frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
                frame.add(new TestPane());
                frame.pack();
                frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
                frame.setVisible(true);
            }
        });
    }

    public class TestPane extends JPanel {

        public TestPane() {
        }

        @Override
        public Dimension getPreferredSize() {
            return new Dimension(200, 200);
        }

        protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
            super.paintComponent(g);
            Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D) g.create();
            int size = Math.min(getWidth() - 4, getHeight() - 4) / 10;
            int width = getWidth() - (size * 2);
            int height = getHeight() - (size * 2);

            int y = (getHeight() - (size * 10)) / 2;
            for (int horz = 0; horz < 10; horz++) {
                int x = (getWidth() - (size * 10)) / 2;
                for (int vert = 0; vert < 10; vert++) {
                    g.drawRect(x, y, size, size);
                    x += size;
                }
                y += size;
            }
            g2d.dispose();
        }

    }
}
