Pivot doors are doors that open on a central vertical axis, which allows them to rotate around a pivot point. Here are some of the advantages and uses of pivot doors:
1. Space optimization
Pivot doors allow for a wider opening than traditional doors, making them suitable for places where space is important: main entrances for office buildings or luxury homes.
2. Enhanced functionality
Pivot doors open through a smooth rotation around their axis, which adds a touch of ergonomics and is an advantage for users with reduced mobility.
Pivot doors open in both directions, inward and outward. You can open them even if your hands are full, and they close by themselves, silently, without the noise made by standard doors.
3. Superior aesthetics
Pivot doors provide a modern and elegant aesthetic. Because they open in both directions, you don't necessarily need a handle, which allows the door to blend completely into the wall plane.
4. Versatility
Design Radar pivot doors are available in various finishes: wood, glass (translucent, opaque, textured), veneer, and leather. The most sought-after finish at the moment is smoked glass. Regarding dimensions, they are made to order: the maximum size is 1200 mm in width and 3000 mm in height.
5. Special architectural projects
Pivot doors can be integrated into contemporary architectural projects, contributing to the creation of a distinct and attractive space. Frameless pivot versions can also be installed "flush," with attachment points in the ceiling and floor.
The Suit flush-to-wall door is available as a single or double hinged, pivot, or frameless pivot door.
It is important to mention that pivot doors can be more expensive compared to traditional doors and may require more careful installation. They can also be more sensitive to the level of installation precision. Depending on the specific requirements of the project and aesthetic preferences, the use of pivot doors can bring significant advantages in certain contexts.
