Got tools? they can be built to the exact size you need for the price of the lumber and glue and hinges.

What I did

On my old S2 I had a very similar situation. I used a folding, vinyl accordian door from HD or Lowes. The kind that slides on a track at the top. When closed it is only a couple of inches wide. Inexpensive, and looks pretty good. Especially if it is going to be temporary.

all sorts can be had from the Borg (Home Depot), or any other home improvement store or builders supply, the vinyl ones are pretty stable but the wood or wood products kind need to be well sealed or painted to prevent warping, my opinion

What you guys are talking about are called accordian doors. louvered doors have rigid frames and horizontal slats installed at an angle so that air may pass through but vision is blocked.

correct, but the OP metioned he wanted ones like catalina used, and they use the accordian doors.

I don't think the OP knew the term accordian door (the "???" in the post title would suggest he knew louvered doors was the wrong type as well)
