Drill louvers as normal for louver pins.

Use: AVI Router Slot Bit
Poly - 13/16" O.D.

SLOT is formed in louver.

Tension Pin
AV-105-TP
Two piece for Poly or
AV106-TP
hooked version for wood.

Cutting: Ultra Clear®
We recommend a 12" commercial carbide
non-ferrus metal - 80 tooth blade.

There are several methods to cut to length Ultra Clear®
Here is one way... Place hole strip on
Ultra Clear® and
cut to length as shown.

Slide
Ultra Clear®
into your
Poly or Wood
Profiles.

In case we are making an
Ultra Clear® large shutter.
Note: Notch in rail. 
This Allows
Ultra Clear® mechanism to move
up and down with center divider rail.

Glue rails in position on Ultra Clear® side
(make sure glue does not get into
Ultra Clear® mechanism).

Square rails
and make
sure the
glue sets.

Make sure the disc are turned to
close properly.  Place louvers in
position and glue rail to stiles.
Note:  Mortise and tenenor rails
in wood.  (Dowel or biscuit as
normal other side).

Other Ideas:
In this case, worker is drilling a bigger
hole in the hole strips to eliminate hang up -
9/32"

If no rail wanted in the
Ultra Clear® shutter,
simply make two (2) saw
cuts as shown...1" apart
and shake out aluminum
gear mechanism.

(The two separate mechanisms
work independently).

For extra wide shutters (over 28" - 34")
use Ta Chen's - Aluminum Reinforced Louvers with
AVI - Plastic insert adapters.
Simply push out aluminum 1/2" and cut,
then install
AVI 1/2" plastic insert.

Use Ultra Clear® Finger Pulls in the middle of shutter in
children's room for easy access for children's reach.
Note: Cut louver where pull is to be placed = 0.082" thinner.

Ultra Clear® "Transitional Shutter" is made.
