External Sliding / WS
Centor's WS is a stylish, slide system that provides a silky
smooth operation which allows a wider passage to be enjoyed over the
conventional sliding systems.
The WS system has been designed to operate to a massive expanse of 6.1 metres
in width and 2.4 metres in height, whilst each operable panel can hold up to
150kg of door weight. This system has one fixed panel at one end and 2 sliding
panels which go back to the fixed panel position when opened. A maximum of six
panel configuration is possible with four of the six panels operable.

The WS system is designed to feature the look and feel of crafted
wood doors, with hardware almost entirely concealed. The very limited
exposure of the aluminium tracking system is required to provide the
combined functionality of reliable operation, security and weatherproofing.
Dropbolt locking hardware is also available in distinct complementing finishes
to add to the elegance of the sliding timber panels while providing a high
level of security.
The best part of the WS systemis that it provides an opening
that allows for the majority of the vista to be enjoyed without impeding
on limited or valuable indoor and outdoor areas, even when your doors
are closed to protect you from the elements you can enjoy the larger
sized glazed panels providing less interruptions than standard sliding
doors.
Outdoor views can be appreciated in any weather, be it coastal, mountain
or your own back yard vista. It’s a question of lifestyle and space…
