Louver Installation Instructions
Focal Point Products offers two types of louvers – decorative and functional. Decorative louvers
have closed, non-ventilating slats that do not allow air flow. Functional louvers offer the same
decorative appeal, but include open slats that allow air flow for ventilation.
SAFETY FIRST: When sawing, sanding, nailing or screwing Focal Point polyurethane products
wear safety glasses and a dust mask
INSTALL A FUNCTIONAL LOUVER
1. Position the louver against the siding in the desired location
2. Make sure the louver is level and trace the outline of the louver with a pencil
3. Once you’re sure the cut you’re about to make will not go through studs or electrical
lines, cut the hole into the wall 2” inside the traced outline
4. Apply polyurethane construction adhesive to the inside of the louver’s brickmould, and
position the louver in the hole
5. Using non-corrosive screws or nails through the brickmould face, attach the louver to the
wall. Countersink the fasteners approximately 1/8”
6. Wipe of any excess adhesive, fill the nail or screw holes with an appropriate filler
material and paint the louver with a high-quality, exterior latex or oil based pain
