Product overview

Oversized pivot doors for architectural impact

Aluminium pivot doors rotate on a floor-mounted pivot point rather than conventional side hinges, allowing for much larger door panels than a standard hinged door. This makes them the preferred choice for statement entrance features in luxury residential properties, commercial buildings and architectural projects where visual impact is paramount.

The thermally broken aluminium profile system maintains excellent thermal performance across the full door panel. Argon-filled double or triple glazed units achieve U-values as low as 0.7 W/m²K. The pivot mechanism is engineered to handle the weight of large, heavy panels with smooth, effortless operation.

All panels are finished in T5 powder coat in any RAL colour — satin, gloss or matt. High-end ironmongery as standard. CE marked to EN 14351-1. Supplied bespoke to your exact dimensions with CAD design drawings provided for approval. 8–10 week lead time across London, Essex and the South East.

Frequently asked questions

What is a pivot door?

A pivot door rotates on a floor-mounted pivot point rather than conventional side hinges. This allows for much larger, heavier door panels than a standard hinged door and creates a distinctive architectural aesthetic.

How large can an aluminium pivot door be?

Aluminium pivot doors can be significantly larger than conventional hinged doors — the pivot mechanism is engineered to handle very large, heavy panels. Contact us with your specific dimensions for a bespoke quotation.

Are aluminium pivot doors suitable for external use?

Yes. Our aluminium pivot doors are designed for external use with thermally broken profiles, weather seals and argon-filled glazing to meet current building regulation requirements.
