Centor S4 Screen

The S4 System (superseding the S1 Screen) enables homeowners with large door openings to enjoy the luxury of inside-outside living without the traditional compromises – insects, glare and loss of privacy. Operating with just a fingertip, Centor’s unique load balancing technology allows screens and shades to glide smoothly across the whole door opening to effortlessly stop at any desired position. When not in use, the screen or shade retracts discreetly into the frame removing visual distractions to the view outside whilst also protecting it from damage, dust or dirt. This is especially important for a seasonally used product.

  • Pair with new or existing doors or windows
  • Operates from any height with one hand so the youngest of family members can operate the screen.
  • Screen and shade fabrics are held securely in place by top and bottom tabs, preventing screen blow-out – even in a breeze.
  • The screen and shade are fully retained within the frame on all sides to allow total control of insects, sunlight and privacy. 
  • Screen mesh is available in two different weave styles with no pleats or sliding panels to detract from the view.
  • Luxury shade fabric is available in light-filtering and blockout with a choice of stylish patterns and a range of colors to suit every home.
  • Screens and shades are available in four configurations to suit any home 
  • The durable aluminum frame can be painted in any color for full personalization.
  • Can be mounted on the inside or outside – drainage holes are added to the sill for externally mounted systems. 
  • Sill cover is quick and easy to remove to make cleaning trouble free
  • Backed by a 5-year limited warranty

Installation

S4 can be specified for new doors or windows, of any brand or composition; it can also be retrofitted to existing doors. Its 44mm sill height allows S4 to be easily aligned with finished floor level. The system can be easily installed on the inside or outside of the opening. Sill drainage holes are provided for systems positioned on the outside to allow water to flow out of the door drainage. The drainage holes are not visible and won't block holes in the existing door sill.
