Louver Types

Fixed Blade Louver
A fixed blade louver is a non-adjustable vent design. The Y blade design uses interlocking construction and allows for a 50% free flow area.

Fusible Link Louver
A UL labeled fusible link louver is a vent designed for installation on fire doors. It features adjustable z blades that pivot on rivets and a built in fusible link. The blades are adjusted by a lever. Once the temperature reaches the melting point, the fusible link melts and z blades close and lock meeting fire door requirements.
