Extra Support
Pivot hinges work by supporting a door at two points, typically at the top and bottom, rather than on the side like traditional hinges. This allows the door to rotate around an axis, creating a smooth and elegant swinging motion.
Pivot hinges consist of a pivot set, which includes a top pivot and a bottom pivot. The bottom pivot is attached to the floor or the threshold, while the top pivot is mounted to the top of the door frame or header.
Effortless Entry
Because the weight of the door is supported at the bottom pivot, pivot hinges can handle heavier doors and provide a smoother operation compared to traditional side hinges. The top pivot mainly guides the door’s movement and keeps it aligned.
Pivot hinges are often hidden from view when the door is closed, contributing to a clean and modern aesthetic. They allow for larger and heavier doors to open effortlessly, providing both functional and visual benefits.
