Louvered screening

The brief: give the client the flexibility of concealing or revealing the dining space from the main hallway. Five louvers turned out to be the perfect solution. They not only regulate airflow but also provide privacy when needed and a feeling of space when desired. Space Joinery did a fantastic job at creating a streamlined design that is in keeping with the aesthetics of the joinery throughout the home. Louvers’ benefits We asked Space Joinery why they chose pivot hinges for this application: “We are very familiar with pivot systems, and we have installed many in our projects. Initially, the idea involved using an engineer to create a system to hang each louver, but after installing the pivot system on doors within the home, we realized this system would also be suitable, cost-effective, and time-efficient for the louver partition.” The five louvers all pivot on FritsJurgens System One pivot hinges. Every louver can independently pivot 360° with fluid, smooth movement and be placed in any desired position. This provides exactly the freedom that the customer wanted: the option to partially, entirely, or not at all close a room at any time. Freely rotating systems are often a must for room dividers of all sizes. System One is compact, solid, and – like all FritsJurgens systems – reliable. If you are looking for a little more functionality, System 3 is a suitable solution. This system has hold positions at every 90° angle, in which the door or wall remains in place when you stop it there. The door or wall always moves automatically to one of these hold positions and will always come to a smooth and controlled stop.
