Centor Dropbolts

Centor Dropbolts are the perfect accompaniment to bifold and sliding door systems – available in many size, shape and finish options. Their low profile allows folding doors to stack neatly and with enough clearance for sliding doors to open and close. Centor Dropbolts are available in finishes to match Centor's door hardware and can be installed easily with a dedicated router bit.

  • Use with bifold doors, French doors, sliding doors and casement or folding windows. 
  • Minimum throw length of ¾” (20mm).
  • Keyed or non-keyed options available.
  • Dedicated router bit available.
  • Centor Dropbolts are designed for use with Centor folding systems
  • Backed by a 10-year warranty.

Dimensions are intended as a guide only. Calculated weight checks should be performed to ensure doors built to maximum height and widths do not exceed maximum weight.

Features
Stylish

Easily installed in timber panels using a dedicated router bit, low-profile Centor Dropbolts avoid the untidy look of bolted on fasteners. Manufactured from aluminum with a solid stainless steel bolt, there is a selection of finishes available in each range, allowing the hardware to contrast or tone in with the panel material. 

When ordering dropbolts, confirm the finish availability with customer service.

Whether installed at the top or bottom of doors or windows, Centor Dropbolts will never be out of reach. With lengths available from 4” (100mm) to 39” (1000mm) across the ranges, there’s sure to be a suitable option for every potential user.

Secure

Non-keyed Centor Dropbolts fasten doors against the elements and provide peace of mind, while keyed Centor Dropbolts offer full deadlock security. The unique dead-bolt design ensures the bolt can only be released when the key has been removed, preventing damage to doors. 

Centor Dropbolts are available keyed alike and can be re-keyed by a professional locksmith to match other household locks.
