Elevate Your Entrance with a Spitfire Pivot Door
Your front door isn’t just an entry point; it’s an opportunity to make a statement, set the tone, and enhance your home’s curb appeal. For a truly distinctive entrance that combines design and functionality, Spitfire’s S-600 and S-700 pivot doors are in a class of their own. Known for their sophistication, security, and smooth operation, these doors bring elegance and modern innovation together.
What Are Pivot Doors?
Unlike traditional doors that rely on hinges along one side, pivot doors operate on a central axis with the pivot mechanism placed at the top and bottom of the door, offset from the frame. This unique setup allows pivot doors to rotate smoothly around the pivot point, creating a stunning effect when opening and closing.
The pivot point can be positioned closer to the edge or toward the centre, depending on the design, allowing for doors with large, visually striking panels.
How Do Pivot Doors Work?
Pivot doors are anchored by a pivot hinge system that distributes the door’s weight effectively, allowing for larger, heavier door panels without compromising stability or ease of use.
When the door opens, it pivots in and out, creating a wider, welcoming space that isn’t restricted by hinges. The pivot system offers robust strength and allows the door to rotate effortlessly, no matter the material or size.
The Benefits of Choosing a Pivot Door
1. Modern and Stylish Design
- Pivot doors provide a sleek, minimalistic look that complements modern architectural styles. The design creates a clean, uninterrupted line that gives a sense of spaciousness and sophistication.
2. Larger Door Panels
- The pivot mechanism supports larger and wider door panels, ideal for making a grand entrance. This allows you to choose a substantial door that immediately grabs attention without compromising functionality.
3. Smooth Operation
- The pivot hinge mechanism enables smooth, quiet operation, even with heavier doors. This smooth function makes the door feel effortless and adds a touch of luxury to everyday use.
4. Enhanced Security
- Both the S-600 and S-700 models are constructed with security in mind. The design and engineering of Spitfire pivot doors ensure they are resistant to forced entry, offering peace of mind alongside their stylish appearance.
5. Durability and Weather Resistance
- Spitfire pivot doors are built with materials that withstand the elements. They are designed for durability, meaning your door will continue to look beautiful and function perfectly, even in challenging climates.
