Why choose a pivot door?

The doors in this project have a contemporary feel with a large expanse of glass and a nearly flush installation that almost creates a floating effect. But you can also customize our Pivot Doors to match your project’s design, since they come with an array of options. Here’s what you should know:

• Sizing: Our Pivot Doors can be up to 16 feet tall with just a single piece of glass. 
• Materials: Choose from an all-wood door, all-aluminum door, or aluminum-clad wood door.
• Finishes: More than 50 exteriors colors are available along with custom colors. Other options include anodized aluminum and a variety of wood species.
• Hardware: Made to match the luxurious feel of these doors and create effortless operation, there are an array of hardware styles and finishes available, including designer hardware from FSB^®.
• Configurations: Single and double Pivot Doors are available and can include integrated sidelights. In addition, you can also create a pivot wall with multiple doors joined together.

In Conway, New Hampshire, where this project is being built, doors need to keep out rain and snow, that’s why they chose a high-performance water management flush sill. Whatever your local conditions, our Pivot Doors can perform in a way that meets your needs. Here’s what you should know:

• Sills: Various sill options are available, including those that help units certify to PG60,* those designed to meet ADA/FFHA requirements, those that have a high-performance flush sill with water management, and more. 
• Glass: All of our low-emissivity (Low-E) glass coatings are available. It’s also possible to get triple-pane glass with up to two Low-E coatings added.
• Coastal performance: Our Stormwatch® protection is available as an option, as is impact-resistant glass and monolithic laminated glass.
