FAQs

IS A PIVOT DOOR EXPENSIVE?

A pivoted single door may be 15% more expensive than a single door and sidelight combination and about 65% more expensive than a standard width single door. It does however provide an additional 200mm in openable space (if a stock 1200 wide pivot is used). Compared however to a double door design, the cost is very similar (5% - 7% cheaper) but the openable width is 60% less than using two stock doors.

CAN I HAVE ANY SIZE DOOR PIVOTED?

In theory, yes, but in practical terms pivots beyond 1500mm wide and 2400mm high are likely to have excessive warp. Australian standards allow for up to a 5mm warp in a standard 2040 x 820 door before it is classed as a defect. Extrapolating that acceptable warp out to doors 1500mm wide results in bows up to 16 - 18mm being within regulations. For this reason Woodworkers carry a range of pivot doors sizes 1200 wide and either 2040mm or 2280mm high (frame height 2170 and 2400 respectively) which we believe will not exhibit excessive warp over time. All of our standard pivot doors are made 45mm thick to accommodate the pivot mechanism and to reduce the capacity to warp.

WHAT TYPE OF PIVOT DO YOU USE?

Woodworkers insist on hanging all pivot doors on concealed overhead hydraulic commercial door closers. We do this for safety reasons. A large unrestrained pivot door can easily become uncontrollable in high winds but will be perfectly safe when hydraulically operated. More importantly a pivot door can be potentially lethal to children if its action is not controlled. A pivot is a large vertical lever that can crush any body part that becomes caught in the narrow side of the opening and we believe the small extra cost of the hydraulic closer is worth the peace of mind. Regrettably some of our competitors continue to use cheap, dangerous, non-hydraulic pivots & consumers should investigate what is being offered before considering any price difference. The Woodworkers pivot is fully concealed into an 88mm head section over each door and opens as standard with hold open function at 90°, although 105° option is available on request. As standard the pivot is set 150mm in from the side jambs to provide a clear opening 1000mm wide. It has been our experience that pivot mechanisms are reliable and maintenance free however the manufacturer's warranty is limited to 1 year.

WHAT HARDWARE DO I BUY TO LOCK PIVOT DOORS?

Woodworkers can provide a pivot door kit that contains all the hardware necessary to secure and operate your pivot door. The kit provides the following

  1. Mortice deadbolt
  2. 80mm Euro cylinder
  3. Pair of escutcheons.

All you need to do is then choose the pull handles you want for both sides.
