move

The key to the pivot door lies in its movement. If you've ever seen a pivot door move, you know that the difference between it and a regular hinged door is huge. The pivot door rotates on a vertical axis and is controlled by the position of the pivot hinge system and the top pivot. This makes the door move very cleverly.

FritsJurgens perfects the control of door movement with the System M pivot hinge series. The entire System M range uses hydraulic technology to focus on the movement of the door and allow you to control every part of it. Not just focus on the exterior design of your door, but also incorporate its movement, from the moment the door catches your eye to its gentle closure, bringing a complete experience.

Unlimited materials, sizes and weights

A pivot door can be crafted from any type of material. From wood to marble, from glass to metal. With the right pivot hinges, nothing is impossible, and doors can weigh a staggering 500kg without any worries.

The height of the doors is not limited, so you are welcome to add ceiling-height doors to your design. As long as there is room inside the door for the pivot hinge system, you can let your imagination run wild.

Secret passages and hidden doors

Ordinary hinged doors usually produce a large number of architectural lines caused by the door frame. A beautiful feature of revolving doors is that the door frame and door handle are unnecessary for simplicity. This means that the door can be hidden inside the wall, creating a simple and calm atmosphere.

Soundproof door

Because many different materials can be chosen when designing turnstiles, they can also easily be made soundproof. The inside of the door can be soundproofed or covered with a sound-absorbing material, such as felt. This is very useful when designing public Spaces such as offices, but it can also be a great addition to the interior of a home.

Dividing wall

Pivot doors are essentially rotating pieces of the wall. Pivot doors can make a great room divider when the pivot hinge system is placed in the middle of a wall. When the doors open, the Spaces are connected and the pivot door becomes part of the interior. When the pivot door is closed, it becomes part of the wall and is barely noticeable. With this row of pivot doors made of soundproof material, the added value of space is enormous.
