Head turning door design! Aluron introduces the state-of-the-art pivot door system, AS 100 Pivot, offset rotation axis. This solution combines unconventional design with advanced sealing technologies and smart access systems. Pivot doors are becoming increasingly popular among both architects and investors – see below why you should choose the AS 100 Pivot system.

Pivot doors are distinguished by the offset rotation axis of the door leaf. As a result even massive and tall doors open easily and effectively. This design features enable the creation of unique large-size entrances. They blend in perfectly with modern design trends - from minimalism to loft style - giving the facade a prestigious and modern look.

Such pivot doors are increasingly found in prestigious residences, mansions and apartments, where they play the double role of both a functional entrance and an eye-catching architectural feature. They are also frequently used by designers of commercial properties – office buildings, hotels, boutique stores and art galleries. The massive, yet elegant structure of the AS 100 Pivot doors will emphasize prestige and modern character of any facility.

AS 100 Pivot – freedom of configuration and personalization

The AS 100 Pivot system offers a wide range of possibilities for adapting the door to the customer's individual needs. Clients can choose between single-leaf or double-leaf layout and perfectly match the appearance of the door leaf to the aesthetics of the building. Leaf filling is available is three variants:

  • Glass insert – a classic filling option, where the glass insert is embedded in the door leaf profile. This solution enables the creation of elegant doors with large glazed surfaces providing maximum interior lighting.
  • Door panel – variant with a full, uniform panel instead of glass inserts. Frequently used in exclusive mansions and office buildings. The panel can be made of various materials (aluminum, quartz sinter, natural stone, composites), which provides exceptional personalization options. Door leaf design can be adapted to double-sided or single-sided flush-mounted panels.
  • Glass Line variant Glass is glued onto the aluminum structure on both sides of the door leaf. As a result the profiles are completely concealed. Other options include stepped insulating glass units and mirrored-effect glass for increased privacy and a futuristic look. This variant is perfect for ultra-modern office buildings and luxury apartments where investors seek to emphasize the open and spacious nature of the interiors.

AS 100 Pivot leaf filling variants:

Regardless of the chosen filling option, the AS 100 Pivot door system allows for full color customization thanks to the Aluron Color Collection2coloring scheme. Thanks to the possibility of choosing the color, surface texture and accessories (e.g. stylish recessed handle, LED lighting for the handle and/or the threshold, concealed hinges), the door system can be perfectly matched to the character of the given building and the preferences of the investor.

Easier installation and exceptional durability

The advanced structure of the AS 100 Pivot door system is intended to ensure efficient installation and long-term durability. The non-rebated (i.e. rimless) design structure simplifies prefabrication and speeds up the process of installation on the construction site. Additionally, such design ensures an elegant appearance without visible fasteners (all screws and bolts are cleverly concealed).

Innovative technical solutions used in the door system design guarantee stability and durability even in difficult conditions. Eco-friendly TPE gaskets and split anti-bimetallic thermal dividers prevent deformation of the door leaf in at large temperature differences (they eliminate the so-called bimetallic effect). As a result the door retains its shape and functionality both during hot weather and during winter frost, thereby ensuring longevity and trouble-free use.

An automatic drop down gasket (the so-called drop down threshold) is used on the lower edge of the door leaf, which activates when the door is closed. This gasket is pressed against the ground. In this way, it increases the structure's tightness from the bottom and protects the interior from cold, dust, water or noise ingress. As a result, excellent door tightness and thermal insulation properties have been achieved – Ud coefficient values reaching 0,6 W/m²K. This is a parameter at the level of passive doors, important for energy-efficient houses, where heat loss minimization translates into lower heating costs.

The combined effects of these solutions will be appreciated by both contractors and end users. For installation teams, AS 100 Pivot door system means faster and easier installation work. Meanwhile, investors can be confident that they are choosing a reliable, highly-durable and innovative, product that will meet the requirements of prestigious construction projects.

Smart equipment for comfort and safety

Pivot doors AS 100 Pivot doors can be equipped with modern technologies that increase the comfort of use and the level of safety:

  • Instinct by Maco – an advanced, fully electronic system for locking doors without keys. Thanks to its integration with smart home systems, the user can control the door using a smartphone application or, for example, a fingerprint reader, which provides both convenience and exceptional safety.
  • Electromotive locks – multi-point locks, such as the Autosafe 835 from Fuhr or the M-TS from Maco, provide automatic door locking and enable remote access control. In practice, this means that the door can be opened with a code, with a phone or with a fingerprint. It is particularly desirable in modern homes and offices.
  • Concealed Pivot hinges with high load-bearing capacity – specialized hinges from renowned suppliers (including WALA, FritsJurgens, JNF) allow for the installation of even very heavy door leaf units (weighing up to 500 kg 500 kg!) while maintaining smooth, effortless movement. These hinges enable independent, smooth adjustment in three planes (left/right separately at the top and bottom, as well as up/down), which ensures perfect door leaf leveling. In selected models cable duct are also applied inside the hinges. This allows for wire routing – e.g. to supply power to the LED door lighting system or to connect the access control system.
  • Linear drainage – water drainage system mounted at the floor level, specifically dedicated to use with the AS 100 Pivot door system. It ensures effective collection and drainage of rainwater and condensation both from the outside and inside of the door structure. The aluminum gutter with a grille cover (perforated or mesh profile) ensures that the door and the floor in the entrance area are not affected by precipitation, which is crucial in adverse weather conditions.
