Centor hardware systems are manufactured to last for years to come in architectural-grade stainless steel and aluminium. In folding hardware, our bearings are custom-machined while wheels are individually precision-ground to ensure silky smooth operation.
Finishes vary depending on the system, with options including stainless steel and PVD brass.
Centor hardware has undergone rigorous testing using a variety of techniques to ensure it withstands real-world use. This includes:
Cycle testing – Our folding hardware is cycle tested to the equivalent of opening and closing panels every day for 40 years.
Corrosion testing – Stainless steel, anodised aluminium and engineering plastics are carefully selected to maximise performance. During corrosion tests, hardware is fixed to various substrates to ensure it performs in challenging conditions, such as coastal applications.
