Louvers Hardware Set for Blinds and Shutters, Complete Kit for 11 Boards, Stainless Steel - DHLH-01

used for 4 sets of louvers. A little difficult to assemble and need to measure distance and boards accurately. Paint or stain prior to assembly, especially the ends. Square drive bit required. Don't know why a more common phillips head was not used. product looks and works great. I purchased an aluminum stick 1/2" wide x 1/16" thick with the length that would connect all my boards instead of the individual connecting brackets provided.

I needed to protect my patio from the blazing Arizona morning sun, but I wanted to be able to enjoy the evening breeze. Constructing louvres was the logical choice. For the 10-foot opening I built a frame from 4x4 lumber leaving a 6-foot-wide by 9-foot-tall window. The instructions called for maximum 1x6x48 boards. To span the window opening I used 1/2x5.5x60 fence pickets. They are somewhat lighter and relatively inexpensive. There is some sag, but they have held up for a year and the result is satisfactory.Also, the hardware is stainless so there isn't any rust.

This product is flexible, works perfectly and was a great enhancement to our outdoor kitchen.

It works perfect easy to assemble. We used it on our screened in porch to reduce rain coming in and add a little privacy. It works well for both reasons.

It says stainless steel but there’s signs of corrosion after a week in a shore/marine environment. Hopefully they hold up but I’m disappointed that they’re obviously not a higher grade of stainless steel.

We did not install these yet, but they look just fine. We could not install them because we were missing the stainless steel rivets that are required to connect the pieces. The other hardware- screws for boards- is included.
