Aluminum-Framed Glass Pivot Entry Door

In modern architectural design, entry doors are no longer just a security barrier but also the first element that showcases the building’s aesthetics and the owner’s taste. Aluminum-framed glass pivot doors, with their unique design concept and outstanding functionality, are becoming a popular choice for high-end residential and commercial spaces.

Design Features

Pivot doors (also known as pivot-hung doors) adopt a non-traditional installation method, where the door leaf rotates on top and bottom pivot points instead of being fixed on the side with conventional hinges. This design offers several significant advantages:

Possibility of oversized dimensions: Easily achieves heights of over 2.4 meters, with single-door widths reaching up to 1.5 meters or more
360-degree rotation capability: Some designs allow the door leaf to swing freely in both directions
Frameless visual effect: Minimalist design creates the illusion of "floating" in space
Customizable glass options: Choices range from fully transparent to frosted, tinted, patterned, or wired glass

Structural Advantages

The core of aluminum-framed glass pivot doors lies in their precision engineering:

1、High-strength aluminum alloy frame: Made from aerospace-grade aluminum profiles, treated with anodizing or powder coating for superior weather resistance

2、Hidden pivot system: Concealed top and bottom load-bearing pivots support weights exceeding 200kg

3、Multi-layer sealing system: Ensures excellent sound insulation, thermal insulation, and waterproof performance

4、Safety glass configuration: Typically uses tempered laminated glass for both safety and transparency

Application Scenarios

This door type is particularly suitable for:

Main entrances of villas and luxury homes
Commercial spaces such as hotels and private clubs
Interior partitions requiring natural light penetration
Transitional areas connecting indoor and outdoor spaces

Maintenance & Care

Despite their precision structure, aluminum-framed glass pivot doors require relatively simple daily maintenance:

Regularly clean the aluminum tracks and pivot points
Wipe glass surfaces with a neutral cleaner
Inspect pivot system lubrication every 1-2 years
Avoid using strong acids or alkalis on metal components

As an innovative product in the architectural hardware industry, aluminum-framed glass pivot doors perfectly combine engineering technology and design aesthetics, providing modern architecture with a highly functional yet visually striking entry solution.

This product is manufactured with precision craftsmanship in Foshan, China—a globally renowned hub for architectural hardware and door/window production.
