Pivot Doors

Pivot Doors

Modern house design has developed a trend towards wider doors. Originally a door and two sidelights was an entrance statement, then double doors, and now the single oversized door is very popular for architecturally designed homes. Being over width, (normally 1200mm wide) and obvioulsy heavier than a standard door, hinges are not an effective way of hanging the door. A pivot system has been developed of fitting the door to carry the weight and to provide smooth and safe working. The pivot allows for the doors to be held open, close slowly and constantly, and to shut gently. The Door Keeper has developed it's own style of frame and housing for pivot doors, and is without doubt a leader inthe development fo this style of entrance.

The popular contemporary look remains with the square profile and flush external panels.
