Pivot Doors
A modern design project, whether it is commercial or private, that wants to set itself apart through innovative features and elements should consider including a pivot door into the design space. Pivot doors are an unexpected feature that allows for clever use of the space and can be utilized to separate rooms, enhance privacy, and create a more open, cohesive area when the doors are open.
What You Need to Know About Pivot Doors
Pivot doors can be traced back for centuries and can be seen in some ancient ruins across the globe. In the centuries since the technology of the pivot door has come a very long way and they are now regarded as incredibly sophisticated and elegant design features.
Today, pivot doors are made in a variety of materials, with metal pivot doors being especially popular as they exude minimalism and sleekness.
Steel pivot doors use a hinge system and a top pivot, both of which are invisible in the final product. The result is a door that can be pushed from either side and will swing open. Many luxury properties use an incredibly large metal pivot door as the entrance into the home, which accentuates the height of the ceilings and creates a very unique and impressive effect.
How to Incorporate a Pivot Door
Pivot doors can be used both externally and inside the home. An exterior pivot door is an elegant way to welcome residents and guests alike. It sets a sleek and eye-catching tone for the rest of the home.
An interior pivot door steel provides a very modern aesthetic that also creates a dynamic and adaptable living space. For instance, for a more open-plan atmosphere, you can open large pivot doors to expose certain rooms.
However, if you are looking for a cozier or more private feeling, then the doors can be closed when needed and can blend into the rest of the wall for a seamless look.
Benefits of Installing a Pivot Door
There are several benefits to choosing a pivot door that will improve the look of the space and also elevate one’s lifestyle. Consider the following:
- Innovative and unique look - those that want a more dynamic and interesting interior space should consider a pivot door. They are under-utilized but very beautiful and can allow for a more interesting use of the space.
- Design freedom - due to how pivot doors are made and installed, they can be customized to nearly any measurement and weight. This allows for an exceptional degree of freedom when it comes to design.
- Sleek and subtle - pivot doors require no visible hinges and some do not have frames. This creates a very visually impactful aesthetic that retains the clean lines of the interior space.

There are various places you can install a pivot door. One is the corridor, which was created to link various rooms in the house—providing the ideal location to make distinctive creative decisions and experiment with various materials and colors.
By incorporating the smooth and precisely controlled movement of a pivot door in the design of the corridor door, you can transform a plain opening into a warm and welcoming passage to the subsequent room in the house. Pivot hinges give the door a completely different movement from that of a door with traditional hinges.
Exterior entry doors can be made in any shape or size. There are numerous materials with which to work.
Popular materials for entrances include glass and steel, glass and aluminum, complete steel or aluminum, or a specific type of wood. Copper-clad doors, on the other hand, are becoming increasingly popular too.
Wood is widely regarded as the best material for any entry door. The wood color and design can be chosen based on the overall design of your project. Mahogany, red oak, white oak, and walnut are typical wood options. Each type of wood has its own distinct charm and attractiveness. While another attractive option is glass.
There are no size restrictions on doors, and custom doors can be made to fit your project specifications.
