Hard to answer without knowing what you have there already. Those rooms definitely need ventilation but I don't usually see that ventilation being part of am interior door I imagine you could put on basically any solid core that fits.
Also Chicago has a history of unique and expensive antique door hardware so if your house is old you might want to do some googling of your knobs, lock sets, and hinges and either donate them to a place that deals in antique house parts or sell them online.
Yeah, our place is not THAT old. I think it was built around 1993.
Currently, both the laundry closet and the furnace closet have hollow-cored doors with a small louvered panel on the bottom half of them. Our neighbor from the downstairs apartment replaced the door to their laundry closet and put in solid doors with no (apparent) ventilation, which sparked the thought that maybe a louvered door might not be needed
Pretty sure they mean a "closet door" that have the slats in them.
If they're already there, they probably need to be.
