Ocean view entrance The entrance pivot door is everything but ordinary. Walking through this door feels like opening up an entire wall to promptly welcome you into the heart of the house. That was a well-thought-out design choice, as it impacted the entire lay out of the living area. Architect Gavin Maddock: “The client required direct view to the ocean upon entry. The form and space created was generated through a response to the site conditions and the planning of the house working best on the site. “Considering the size, weight and quality of the door, FritsJurgens was our immediate choice.” FritsJurgens has various pivot hinge systems that are suitable for use in exterior pivot doors. Take a look at the different features each product offers you. The full height of the door is 5,7m, and it is 1,6m wide. Since pivot doors make it possible to design with limitless heights and irregular proportions, and the right hardware offers extreme load-bearing capacity, it seemed the obvious choice to choose this type of entrance. Gavin Maddock: “When designing an entrance like this, every detail is important. The size, weight and flush, streamlined design of the door required tremendous consideration of hardware and detail, including the internal framing of the door panel. It’s actually a wall.” The door is fabricated with an internal welded frame and is clad with aluminum composite panels, inside and out. Both internal and external handles are recessed into the thickness of the door.
