QUADRIF'ORIS sc. janua (τετράθυρος). A door, in which each of the two valves fold back into two parts, thus forming altogether four pieces, upon the same principle as our window-shutters and folding-doors; as is exemplified by the illustration (Quadriforis/1.1), representing a cabinet or armoire, from a Pompeian painting. Vitruv. iv. 6. 5.
