Integrated screens and shades
Centor offers the best retractable fly screens for bifold doors, accompanied by innovative sun shades that are also built into the frame. Available on our 200 and 400 Series doors and windows, this unique offering allows homeowners to enjoy inside-outside living without the traditional compromises associated with large openings – insects, glare and loss of privacy.
Homeowners around the world are delighted with their built-in screens and shades. In Derbyshire, Deb is surprised at how much she uses the screen: “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!”
While in County Durham, Gillian is pleased with her built-in shades: “The integrated blinds really appealed to me. 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.
Our built-in blackout shade also enhances the thermal properties of the door, with independent tests showing a reduction in the U-value by 17%.
