405 Integrated Folding Door

The 405 is Centor’s premium aluminium Integrated Folding Door. Its unobtrusive and contemporary design perfectly frames any view – all visible hardware is removed from the interior, with equal stiles and rails on each panel frame.

There are many configurations possible with this option – including doors with 2 panels or 4 panels in one direction, now having full key access from the outside.  

Centor’s 405 Integrated Folding Door incorporates built-in screens and shades to control insects, sunlight and privacy. Our shades also enhance the thermal properties of the door, with independent tests showing that the blackout shade improves the U-value by 17% when drawn across the opening.

  • Large doors up to 9.2m wide.
  • Aluminium available in standard or custom RAL colours.
  • Engineered to last a lifetime – extrusions are painted after cutting and machining to ensure all surfaces are coated. 
  • Hidden hardware, including Access AutoLatch™, AutoLatch™ and concealed hinge.
  • Integrated insect screens and shades are accessible for service or replacement. 
  • Screen box facings are available to enable simple installation into an existing opening.

Features
Access AutoLatch™

Centor’s latest locking innovation, the Access AutoLatch™, replaces the traditional entrance handle with a concealed version that’s hidden from view in the door stile.

Interior of the Access AutoLatch

The lever is simply lifted to open the doors from the inside. A ‘signifier’ on the face of the panel hints at the lever’s location.
Exterior handle

On the exterior, a slimline vertical pull-handle allows panels to be opened with ease.
AutoLatch™

The Centor AutoLatch™ is used to close and secure intermediate panels in one movement, with one hand. It is available keyed or non-keyed.

Concealed hinge

The concealed hinge on folding doors is hidden from sight within the edge of the door. Not only does it look great, but it also makes the doors tamper-proof for additional security.

Integrated screens and shades

Built into the door frame, our innovative, integrated insect screens and shades are a world-first offering. They allow homeowners to enjoy inside-outside living without the compromises traditionally associated with large openings – insects, glare and loss of privacy.

Screens for Centor Integrated Doors are available in two mesh types to keep even the smallest insects out
Screens
Choose between two mesh types to keep even the smallest insects out – like Derbyshire homeowner Deb: “Although there are a lot of midges near the moorland, we really didn’t expect to need it very much. It’s been so useful though – even in England!”
Shades for Centor Integrated Doors are available in two patterns and a range of colours
Shades
Available in two patterns and a range of colours, our light-filtering and blackout shades retract from sight when not in use – which really appealed to Gillian in County Durham: “I didn’t want any curtains in my house, but I wanted the capability to occasionally block the light out and to close the windows off at night.”
