Series 540: Security with Clear Vision
When you need maximum security without sacrificing visibility, Woodfold's Series 540 delivers the perfect balance. Rigid plastic panels with steel rod reinforcement provide protection while maintaining visual access.
Visibility without compromise since 2000
Why Series 540 Changes Security Design
When detention centers need to maintain visual monitoring, retail spaces require security after hours with visibility, and secure areas need protection without isolation, they specify Series 540. This isn't just a security door—it's visibility with protection.
The Visibility Challenge
Traditional security doors create blind spots and isolation. You can't see what's happening behind solid barriers. Supervision becomes impossible, and security monitoring suffers from lack of visual access.
Series 540 solves this dilemma with rigid plastic panels that provide security while maintaining complete visibility. Steel rod reinforcement ensures structural integrity without compromising your ability to see through the barrier.
Why Series 540 Stands Apart
Rigid Plastic Panels
High-impact resistant plastic panels provide durability and security while maintaining optical clarity. Engineered to withstand rigorous use in demanding security environments.
Steel Rod Reinforcement
Internal steel rod reinforcement provides exceptional structural strength without obstructing visibility. Creates a formidable barrier that maintains security while allowing clear visual access.
Custom Security Solutions
Every security door is custom-built to your exact specifications. Widths from 3 feet to 30+ feet. Heights up to 10'1". Security with visibility tailored to your specific requirements.
High-Impact Protection
Durable plastic construction resists impact damage while maintaining optical clarity. Perfect for high-traffic areas requiring both security and visual monitoring capabilities.

Hardware & Connectors
To assure correct sizing of your Woodfold accordion door the finished opening should be measured precisely from side to side for width and from the header surface where the track will be attached, to the finished floor or counter surface for height.
Width Measure the width at the bottom, halfway up and at the top of the door and use the widest dimension you have. Note: if the widest dimension is at the bottom or center you may have to trim the suspension track to fit your opening at the top of the door as track lengths are made to the ordering width. This can be done with a hacksaw.
Height Measure from the top of the finished floor to the point where you are going to attach the track. NOTE: For those areas where the floor is uneven (e.g. concrete floors) please take 3 or 4 height measurements along the floor. Use the shortest measurement as the finished opening height except 2100, 3300 or 4100. For sound doors use tallest height.
Dimensions should be stated width first and then height and should represent sizes after any and all modifications have been done to the opening. Unless customer specified, we will allow 9/16″ floor clearance for doors over 4′ high and 5/16″ for doors 4′ and less. Beware of variations in floor and/or ceiling surfaces.
Please check your measurements for accuracy. Contact us if you need additional assistance.
