KEY FEATURES/PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS
• The Series 410 Bi-fold door is an exceptionally strong bi-fold

system designed to accept the heavy duty Elevate™ Series 50, 51
and 52 doors.
• Can accommodate compliant bi-fold panels up to 3000mm high.
• Rebated door stiles give a flush appearance when the two doors
meet and provide superior weather protection.
• A variety of lever and lock options including multi-point and lever
compression locking for added security and improved weather
performance.
• Successfully tested for water resistance at 450Pa.
• Can be configured to incorporate single or double entry doors.
• Custom door co-extruded Santoprene bulb seal for maximum
weather performance.
• Door panels are supported on quad rollers running on heavy duty
dual bottom rails.
• As the doors are supported at the sill (sill rollers) we can fit
overlights. Overlights can be fixed glass or opening sashes.
• The maximum panel weight is 60kg, on bi-parting doors this would
be 45kg.

DESIGN FEATURES
• The Elevate™ Series 410 FoldMASTER™ Bi-fold door has been designed to accept the
heavy-duty Series 50, 51 and 52 doors. Being significantly stronger than conventional doors,
we can offer bi-fold panels up to 3000mm high that comply with AS 2047.
• Bold square frame is strong enough to support heavy duty doors.
• Rebated French door stiles give a flush appearance when the two doors meet and provide
superior security and weather protection. Applied rebates are not required.
• Concealed lock keepers specially designed to fit in the cavity on the leading edge
of the "lazy side" door and eliminates the need to mill holes in the aluminium
for latch and lock bolt. This recessed keeper plus the rebated stile makes
it extremely difficult for intruders to access the latch and bolt for forced
entry.
• Doors can be supplied with a variety of lever lock options including
multi-point and lever compression locking for added security and
improved weather performance.
• The Bi-fold doors have been successfully water tested at 450Pa.
• Seamless type door panel construction conceals the assembly
joint.
• Custom injection moulded lock keepers, flush bolt blocks
and extruded bolt guides complement the door system.
• Custom hinges wrap around the door stile and jamb
removing the need for shimming. These custom
components dramatically improve the appearance.
• Bi-fold door can be constructed to incorporate French
doors. The unit can be used as single or double entry
doors but when the occasion arrives the whole unit
can be opened.
• Custom door co-extruded Santoprene bulb seal
for maximum weather performance.
• Bi-fold doors are supported on quad rollers
running on heavy duty dual bottom rails.

• Bi-fold panels can be secured with key
operated twinbolts.
• Highlights (fixed or awning) above
the doors can be fitted into very tall
openings.
• Optional Centor™ roller flyscreen
behind the bi-fold doors available.
Compatibility:
We have designed a number of compatible framing
suites that can be coupled or used together:
• Series 400 CentreGLAZE™ framing.
• Series 406 FrontGLAZE™ framing (102mm wide).
• Series 461 to 467 Commercial windows.
• 424 Double glazed CentreGLAZE™ framing.
• 426 Double glazed FrontGLAZE™ framing.

MEETING STILES – QUAD ROLLER
Roller hinges designed for this product nest easily into stiles and

sweeps the running track as panels are opened and closed.
For coastal installations we offer bottom rollers with marine

grade 316 stainless steel cowling over the rollers.
Co-extruded Santoprene door bulb seals fitted to stiles inside

and out.

FRENCH MEETING STILES

French meeting stiles have been designed to accept:
• ANDO™, ICON™ and MIRO™ lever twinbolt for the keeper stile as illustrated
below.
• MIRO™ lever latch set illustrated below.
These proprietary locks come in two or four point locking.
When the panel height exceeds 2100mm we recommend four point locking to
keep the top and bottom of the stile against the seals under wind load.
• Lock stile will also accept Lockwood 3580 and Legge 995MF latch sets.
• When using the Lockwood or Legge latch sets, use finger operated flush-bolts
on the keeper stile.
We have dedicated proprietary glass filled nylon keepers for all of these lock options
as shown later in these notes.

CENTOR SCREEN PRODUCTION FEATURES
By far the largest and most robust retractable screening sys-

tem on the market. The detail in this section show the screen
fitted behind Series 410 Bi-fold door. The screen can be fitted
to any of the Bi-fold door configurations up to 8811mm wide
(with Standard weave mesh).
The S4 screen frame can be coloured to match the Bi-fold
door frame.
Load Balancing Technology™ (LBT™) allows for effortless
fingertip control. With no spring-loading to fight against, the
screen's lead-stile remains firmly in any chosen position until
further pressure is applied. Load-balancing also means far
greater mesh tension across the screen, eliminating any ten-
dency to sag.
Tight Technology™ manufacturing techniques ensure control
of the horizontal edges of the screen so they remain straight
and tight across the widest spans.
A shock absorption system allows visitors taken in by the
screen's unobtrusiveness and near invisibility to walk away
with little more than a surprise.
Should strong winds blow the screen out of the top or bot-
tom channels the mesh will self-feed back onto the roll as it is
rolled away.
The S4 screen is an evolution of the highly successful S1
screen with completely redesigned operating system including
top and bottom tabs on the mesh to improve blowout resis-
tance and allow blockout blinds to be added.

S4 is manufactured in stainless steel and reinforced engineered
polymers. PetScreen Lite, the tough PVC coated polyester
