Elite Doors & Windows

The statement entrance.

Pivot Doors

A pivot door is not merely an entry, it is the first gesture of the architecture. Elite pivot systems rotate on a floor-to-ceiling offset axis, balancing panels that reach up to twenty feet and thousands of pounds with the lightest fingertip pressure. Every hinge block, threshold seal and thermally broken frame profile is engineered in-house so the finished installation feels inevitable rather than mechanical.

Engineering details

What sets every pivot doors apart.

Counterbalanced Pivot Hardware

Stainless-steel pivot sets rated for panels up to 800 kg, precision-ground to eliminate sag, drop and seasonal binding over decades of daily use.

Thermally Broken Aluminum Frame

Polyamide thermal break separates interior and exterior aluminum profiles, holding temperature and dramatically cutting condensation on cold-climate installations.

Hurricane & Impact Ratings

Laminated impact glass and reinforced frame extrusions meet Miami-Dade HVHZ and Florida Product Approval requirements, available on all panel sizes.

Panel Spans to 20 Feet

Custom-engineered sash profiles handle floor-to-ceiling openings up to six meters wide, no catalog limits on what the architecture requires.

Multipoint Locking

European-grade multipoint lock bodies engage simultaneously at header, threshold and mid-stile, air-tight, weather-tight and tested to 100,000 cycles.

Limitless Finish Options

Powder coat in any RAL or NCS color, anodize in four grades or specify a Kynar 500 fluoropolymer finish for coastal and high-UV environments.

Applications and benefits.

1

Statement Residential Entry

Replace a standard front door with a floor-to-ceiling pivot that doubles as sculpture, the single change with the highest visual return on investment.

2

Interior Grand Hall Divider

Pivot systems work indoors too: a pivoting glass wall between a foyer and living space that opens fully or closes for acoustic separation.
