large louvered panels
Hi,
I'm having difficulty trying to get decent sized alloy panels with louvers in them. The only ones I can find are those small ones used for vents
like sold in B&Q which are way too small.
Any ideas?

buy a used Caterham bonnet off ebay and cut the top off for the louvres?

Marine Yact/Boat chandlers are a very good source for things like airvents.

as you rightly state, B&Q so venitalation louvers, in anodised aluminium and brass.
so you want a big area - why must it be one large panel? can you not use sevaral of the B&Q panels?

I would just get a local fabricators to stamp some in your panels as required.The limiting factor is the size of there press.
