Ventilation doors are an indispensable part of residential buildings as this ventilation door design helps indoor air circulate well, creating airiness for your living space. In today’s article, let’s explore with TOSTEM the benefits of installing ventilation doors and review the most popular ventilation door design models for bedrooms, kitchens, living rooms, and bathrooms currently in demand.
Ventilation doors, also known as louvers, ventilation louvers, or light-gathering doors, are small-sized windows that are usually kept open for extended periods to transfer and circulate indoor air.
Ventilation doors work based on convection phenomenon – hot air rises and escapes outside, while cold air sinks down. Therefore, louver ventilation doors are usually installed at high positions. When ventilation doors open, hot air tends to move upward and escape outside, creating coolness for the room.
Key Features of Ventilation Louvers

There are several main types of louvered vent doors available today:
Awning Ventilation Doors
This type consists of a main frame and sashes. Users open the door by pushing the sash up at an angle of 20-30 degrees and fixing it with a stay arm. This opening angle provides good air circulation while ensuring security and preventing rainwater from splashing inside.

Louver Ventilation Doors
Louver ventilation doors consist of 1 door frame and multiple flat slats arranged parallel to each other. When opened, the slats open at a 20-30 degree angle for air circulation and ventilation. Main materials for this door type include aluminum, glass, iron, or steel-core plastic. The biggest disadvantage of louver ventilation doors is that they easily collect dust but are difficult to clean and maintain, affecting the aesthetics of your living space.

To determine appropriate ventilation door sizes, you need to consider the overall architecture of the house, installation area location, and ventilation area requirements. For example, bathroom and toilet louver ventilation doors will be smaller than bedroom or living room ventilation doors.
To ensure ventilation doors achieve good fortune in feng shui, sizes should be measured according to the Lu Ban ruler 38.8 cm (used for inner dimensions – thong thuy). Below are some beautiful, popular sizes:
Thong Thuy Size (mm) | Good Fortune | Meaning |
210 × 210 | Noble Person | Meeting helpful people, increasing luck |
250 × 250 | Heavenly Talent | Welcoming wealth, peace |
270 × 270 | Prime Minister | Authority, career success |
300 × 300 | Wealth & Nobility | Prosperity, advancement |
600 × 200 | Joyful Event – Great Fortune | Welcoming good news, children, business success |
When needing to install louver ventilation doors with larger sizes, you should equip additional security grilles to ensure safety.

Ventilation doors bring many benefits to your living space, specifically:
Ventilation doors are positioned high near the ceiling, beyond normal sight lines, so even when open, they maintain privacy during room activities. Simultaneously, ventilation doors allow air circulation, preventing rooms from being stuffy and oppressive, creating comfort for users.
Ventilation doors usually have small sizes, so the amount of light passing through and entering the room has moderate intensity. Additionally, doors installed at high positions don’t direct light straight into living areas but diffuse evenly, creating pleasant light sources for living spaces.
Ventilation doors are installed high near the ceiling, beyond normal reach. Simultaneously, doors have small and narrow sizes, limiting outside intrusion and helping ensure security for your home.
Ventilation doors act like natural fans, pushing hot air outside and welcoming cool breezes into rooms. This helps your living space maintain coolness and airiness, contributing to energy savings.
