Frequently Asked Questions

What is a louvre door?

A louvre door (American English use “Louver door”) is a blind or shutter with horizontal slats that are angled to allow light and air. We commonly like to call louvre doors ‘the doors with slats’! The angle of the slats are usually fixed and modern louvres are often made from pine wood. The popularity of louvre doors has increased in recent years as more people incorporate them into their homes due to their low cost and versatile look, they can be used almost anywhere in the home.

Why do some louvre doors have a support bar?

Some of our larger louvre doors have an additional middle support bar to maximise the stability of the door and ensure your doors are built to last. Support bars feature on our louvre doors 72” tall and above.

Do you supply made to measure louvre doors?

We stock a large range of sizes to suit most needs. We no longer off a made to measure service. If you would like to know more about which available sizes would be best suited for your measurements, contact us today.

How do you install louvre doors?

The appeal of louvre doors is that they are affordable and even easier to install. Louvre doors require flush or barrel hinges for fitting, and both are very easy to install. 

For beginners, some valuable tips to follow would be:

  • Take three measurements of the door opening (top, middle, bottom) to ensure you are working with the right sizes.
  • Leave a 2-3mm space around the door to allow for movement and the hinges.
  • Always use flush door hinges for your louvre doors. 
  • Louvre doors above 66” in height will need 3 hinges.
What hinges should I use for my louvres?

We recommend 2 x 63mm zinc plated flush hinges with all louvre doors up to H 1676mm (66″) and 3 x 63mm zinc plated flush hinges with all louvre doors on or above H 1676mm (66″).

How do I keep my louvre doors clean?

Due to their multiple slats, louvre doors can accumulate a little bit of dust and dirt over time. The easy way to clean louvre doors is with a feather duster or cloth. You can clean stubborn dirt between slats by putting an old sock or rag on a ruler, bread knife or similar shaped item (make sure it doesn’t have a sharp edge). A finished louvre door will have extra protection against any soap and water should you decide to use a little for more stubborn grime.

Can my louvre doors from Shawfield Doors be used outside?

Many doors can be suited for external use if given the correct treatment. Louvre doors make great choices for external door shutters, however our louvre door range is supplied primarily for internal use. If being used for external use, additional treatment by the customer will be required.

What kind of louvre doors should I buy?

We offer Pine only louvre doors.  The pine louvre doors can be finished to your own personal preferences whether stained or painted to your desired colour as they come completely unfinished to let you decide.

It’s always satisfying when you can install your own doors, and we have all the answers you need for installing your new doors. Installing louvre doors doesn’t have to be difficult – in fact, the process is more simple than you may expect.

For beginners, some valuable tips to follow would be:

  • Take three measurements of the door opening (top, middle, bottom) to ensure you are working with the right sizes.
  • Leave a 2-3mm space around the door to allow for movement and the hinges.
  • Always use flush door hinges for your louvre doors. 
  • Louvre doors above 66” in height will need 3 hinges.
