Wood Louvers

To prevent warping and sagging of the louvers and to increase the security of the installation, Marshfield DoorSystems specially constructs large louvers.

When a single louver cutout is 20" or wider for Flat-Slat or Round-Slat Louvers, or 24" or wider for sight-proof V-Slat, we will install two or more louvers with center mouldings in the cutout. See illustration #1.

For louvers 54" or longer and 20" or wider for Flat-Slat or Round-Slat, or 24" or wider for sight-proof, the louvers are installed as described above and with an additional vertical divider bar. See illustration #2.

  • Unfinished and primed doors will not have nail holes filled.
  • Factory finished doors with installed louvers will have nail holes filled.

Downset may vary due to allowable tolerance deviations in components.

Flat Slat, 24" x 11-3/4" Round-Slat, 24" x 12" Sight-Proof V-Slat.

Fusible Link Louvers
Underwriters Laboratories (UL) and Intertek Testing Services – Warnock Hersey (ITS-WH) approved fusible link louvers are available for certain Marshfield DoorSystems fire-rated doors. Please see Appendix G and H for specific size restrictions. Labeled doors used as a means of egress are not allowed to have fusible link louvers. Care must be used to avoid overpainting in the field – too much paint can hinder proper operation.
