Add louver grille protection similar to the Lovettsville facility. Add flat louver grille protection on the interior and exterior of the lower louvers. The color will match the doors. The louvers will be stainless steel or anodized aluminum. 6. Reduce the width of the privacy panel between the sink and urinal to 1’- 6”.
