Pivot Door

The load is carried by the top and bottom pivot spindles, not by hinges. That makes sizes possible a hinged door could never hold.

What Is a Pivot Door and How Does It Work?

A pivot door carries the weight of the leaf on a central axis at the top and bottom rather than on side hinges. That construction allows leaf sizes and weights that are impossible with hinges, and the leaf opens through anything from 90 to 180 degrees.

The load passes through floor-recessed or top-mounted pivot spindles, which is why leaves weighing 200–400 kg work without trouble. The leaf can be aluminium, steel, wood-clad, glass or a composite panel; aluminium profiles have a 2–3 mm wall thickness, steel 1.5–2 mm.

Freedom in Sizing

Standard production covers single leaves up to 150 cm wide and 400 cm high. As the size grows, the pivot spindle capacity and the floor connection detail are recalculated.

  • Single leaf up to 150 cm wide and 400 cm high
  • Aluminium, steel, wood-clad, glass or composite panel

Insulation and Security

With a thermal break profile the U-value drops to 0.9–1.4 W/m²K and sound insulation sits between 35 and 42 dB. Security class is RC2, or RC3 on steel models.

Hydraulic Damper and Automation

With a hydraulic damper the door slows and closes by itself instead of slamming. A motor option makes it fully automatic.

Performance

Classified Performance Values

The targets are Class 4 for air permeability, Class 9A for watertightness and Class C5 for wind resistance. These apply to the standard configuration and may change with the project.

Advantages

Advantages of a Pivot Door

The decisive advantage of a pivot door is freedom in sizing. On a hinged door the weight bears on the hinges at one edge and large leaves begin to sag; on a pivot door the load runs through the top and bottom spindles into the floor.

Specifications

Pivot Door Specifications

The table below gives the technical values for the standard configuration. These are typical production ranges rather than a binding commitment. Profile section, pivot spindle capacity and anchor type are calculated separately for each project against leaf size, floor conditions and local wind data.

Pricing

How Is the Price of a Pivot Door Set?

The price cannot be quoted from a ready list; leaf size, material, level of insulation and installation conditions differ in every project. A firm figure only follows an on-site measurement.

01

Leaf Size and Weight

As the size grows, the spindle capacity, profile section and floor connection are all strengthened — this is the single biggest driver of the price.

02

Leaf Material

There is a marked cost difference between aluminium, steel, wood cladding, glass and composite panels.

03

Level of Insulation

A thermal break profile and double glazing raise thermal performance; both are necessary on a door opening into a heated space.

04

Pivot Mechanism

Floor-recessed or top-mounted spindles, hydraulic dampers and motorised automation are separate line items.

05

Lock and Security Class

A mechanical multi-point lock, an electronic lock or a smart lock, and any RC2/RC3 requirement, all affect the cost.

06

Installation Conditions

Floor construction, the preparation a recessed spindle needs and access difficulty change labour time.

Modern tasarımı ile evimize gerçekten bambaşka bir hava kattı, keşke daha önceden yaptırsaydık dedik. Ürün kalitesi harika. Montajı da gerçekten çok hızlı ve titiz hallettiler. Aldığımız hizmet için ayrıyeten teşekkür ediyorum tekrardan. İşini bu kadar hakkıyla yapan bir firmayla karşılaşmamıştık.

Pergola Viva, Türkiye'den Almanya'ya tüm sipariş sürecini şeffaf ve son derece profesyonel bir şekilde yönetti. Video üzerinden yapılan sanal fabrika turu anında güven verdi. Uzman ekip tarafından biyoklimatik pergolamın kurulumu birinci sınıf, kullanılan malzemelerin kalitesi de öyleydi. O kadar memnun kaldım ki hemen motorlu açılır kapanır pencereli ikinci bir sistem sipariş ettim.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions About Pivot Doors

Is a pivot door more durable than a hinged door?

It uses a different load-bearing principle. On a hinged door the weight bears on the hinges at one edge and large leaves begin to sag. On a pivot door the load runs through the top and bottom spindles into the floor, which is why 400 kg leaves work without trouble.

What is the largest pivot door you can make?

Standard production covers single leaves up to 150 cm wide and 400 cm high. On special projects those sizes can be increased through structural calculation. As the size grows, spindle capacity and the floor connection detail are recalculated.

Does a pivot door insulate?

With a thermal break profile the U-value drops to 0.9–1.4 W/m²K. Sound insulation runs from 35 to 42 dB depending on glazing and gaskets. The targets are Class 4 for air permeability, Class 9A for watertightness and Class C5 for wind resistance.

Does the door close by itself?

With the hydraulic damper option the door slows and closes by itself instead of slamming. We recommend it particularly on heavy leaves and on entrances exposed to wind. A motor option can make the door fully automatic.

What is the security class?

Depending on the model, RC2 — or RC3 on steel models. The lock can be a mechanical multi-point, electronic or smart lock. Where a fire rating is required, a suitable model is assessed separately.

What warranty comes with a pivot door?

The system as a whole carries a 2-year warranty. The pivot mechanism and the powder coating are covered for 5 years. Installation workmanship is covered separately.
