Designing a door with no limits to creativity

Doors play an enormously important role in the perception of space: a wall without doors is nothing more than a wall; on the contrary, when a doorway is created, spaces take on a different nature, horizons are expanded, new environments are created.
The positioning of a door also offers practically infinite design possibilities.

A normal door with traditional hinges, however, is often not sufficient if you want to design a door that, in terms of design and dimensions, wants to be the protagonist of the environment that houses it. Often weight, size and dimensions make the pivot door the most logical choice.

By pivoting around its own internal, invisible vertical axis, the pivot door becomes a surface that allows the designer to give free rein to his creativity. The unique and spectacular movement perfectly integrated into the design of the door will transform it from a simple doorway into a true experience.

Accompanied by the right hardware, pivot doors can truly push the conventional limits of weight and size, allowing you to design without constraints and give free rein to your creativity.

FritsJurgens has created a range of invisible pivot hinge solutions that solve all the traditional problems associated with pivot door installation. Rather than being integrated into the floor, FritsJurgens pivot hinges are totally integrated into the sash: a minimally invasive solution that is suitable for both existing configurations and new buildings.

The only external elements are two small support plates: one on the ceiling, the other on the floor; the latter is equipped with two bushings that fit only 8 mm deep. This feature also makes it compatible with any underfloor heating systems, as well as with listed buildings.

The floor plate has a special hole in which the oval pin of the pivot hinge, concealed in the lower part of the door, fits. The installation of a FritsJurgens hinged door takes no more than thirty minutes in total.

In addition to their ease and speed of installation, FritsJurgens pivot hinges allow pivot doors to be made of almost any material and size and guaranteed to support up to 500 kg in weight. No height limit and unlimited choice of materials: from wood to metal, glass to aluminium, copper, marble and even mosaic.
