Screening Systems

Centor’s award-winning retractable insect screens and blinds have solved the problem of screening folding doors, hinged patio doors, sliding glass doors, larger windows and more.

Our screening systems can be elegantly paired with new or existing doors and windows to unobtrusively keep insects out. They also provide the additional benefit of protection from the sun & privacy in your home.

How Door and Window Screens Work

Centor’s door and window screens retract into the system’s frame when not in use. Moving in a horizontal, retractable action, the screens or blinds can be drawn across the opening from any height on the stile.

Not relying on awkward hand-brake mechanisms, the style is elegantly load-balanced. When open, it remains in any position without snapping shut, allowing for easy transitions from inside to out. While our vertical, chain-operated systems for windows – including casement, louvre, and awning – are easily controlled with one hand.

The durable insect mesh has no pleats or lines to detract from the view, making them a stylish alternative to other types of blinds. Installing a flyscreen means that doors can be opened more often, increasing ventilation and reducing air conditioner use. Additionally, the blind allows for discreet control of glare and privacy, featuring flat fabric panels that maintain a sleek appearance.

Centor’s large vertical panels are designed to provide expansive coverage for wide openings, ensuring seamless functionality and aesthetic appeal.

Do you offer a warranty on your sliding screens and blinds?

Can insects get through the mesh?

There are two types of mesh available. The standard mesh guarantees to keep out insects such as flies, wasps, and bees. The tight weave will keep out the tiniest of insects such as mosquitos and midges.

How do I clean a sliding screen?

Regularly wiping the screen lightly with a microfiber cloth or a duster should keep them as new. Remember to keep the track clean by vacuuming too. The frames can be easily wiped down with a damp cloth.

Do Centor S2 screens provide UV protection?

While Centor S2 screens primarily serve as insect screens, the mesh does offer some level of UV protection by blocking out direct sunlight.

Are Centor S2 screens child and pet-friendly?

Yes, Centor S2 screens are designed with safety in mind. The retractable mechanism is smooth and safe for children and pets, reducing the risk of injury.

How do Centor S2 screens differ from vertical blinds?

Purpose: Centor S2 screens keep insects out and let fresh air in. Vertical blinds are for privacy control and light control.
Appearance: Centor S2 screens disappear when not in use making them the perfect choice for a minimalist design; vertical blinds stay visible.
Operation: Centor S2 screens slide into a frame. Vertical blinds rotate and slide to the side.

What are the advantages of Centor S2 screens over roller blinds?

Purpose: Centor S2 screens keep bugs out and allow airflow. Roller blinds block light and provide privacy.
View: Centor S2 screens don't block the view when retracted; roller blinds do.

How do Centor S2 screens compare to Roman blinds?
