Pivot Door Construction

About Pivot Doors Video

There are many features that make the Glenview Doors pivot door collection special and better than Pivot doors offered by other manufacturers.

First and foremost, unlike most pivot doors, our doors have incredible insulating technologies. Our Pivot slab comes in unprecedented three and a half inches of thickness, made possible by our unique Euro Technology, dramatically improves stability and insulation and allows us to provide warranty against warping and or cracking.

This increased thickness of 3-1/2” of our Pivot slab also allows us to offer our unique double rabbeted jamb construction, which dramatically reduces the gap between the slab and the jamb, further improving the door’s insulation. Moreover, we even install additional insulation at the top and bottom of our pivot doors, allowing for an even better control of airflow.

To top it all off, our multi-point lock system, which, as the name suggests, places locks at multiple points on the door rather than just on one, provides stronger security, greater resistance to warping and, as always, increased insulation.

With a Glenview Doors Pivot Door, you get all the benefits of a pivot door without having to worry about the typical issues that pivot doors face. We have taken all possible measures to ensure that our doors will sustain their long-lasting effectiveness and beauty for many years to come.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) about Pivot Front Doors

Why is a multipoint lock important for a Pivot Door?

Multipoint locks are essentially a tool to increase security, increase insulation, and eliminate warping. While all of these are great benefits, the one that interests us most here is the reduced warping. Pivot doors are big and can have a good weight to them, so warping is a pressing concern. The multiple locking points make it so that the door is more anchored and less likely to warp. All of our Pivot doors are equipped with this locking system.

What are double rabbeted jambs and how do they set our Pivot Doors apart?

Pivot doors have some inherent drawbacks due to the hinge system. They have less insulation because more space is needed around the frame for the door to operate smoothly. While most companies do not have a solution for this, we have a double rabbeted jamb system that decreases the airflow on the side of the frame. It allows the door to be closer to the side of the frame, reducing the gap.

What makes Pivot Doors different?

A Pivot door differs from traditional doors in one crucial way. The hinge is offset from the frame of the door, which allows it to be bigger than a door with a traditional hinge. The Pivot hinge is set on the top and bottom of the frame using pins, and the door revolves around it. While the size of the opening is only as big as the distance between the hinge and the other side of the door, it has the appearance of being much larger due to the side of the door that is on the other side of the hinge. Also, Pivot doors fit into modern, contemporary, and transitional architectural styles because of their unique hinge system that separates itself from the pack. It contributes to the flow of sleek, modern homes.
