Pivot door PV1800

PV1800 pivot door — axial opening system with striking architectural presence, designed for premium entrances with generous dimensions.

The PV1800 pivot door belongs to a sophisticated product family designed for architects and designers seeking access solutions with architectural presence and gesture. The axial rotation system — with pivot mounted at top and base — enables symmetrical, fluid openings regardless of door panel width. Materials and profiles are engineered for durability and flawless finish, hallmark qualities of German-made.

The PV1800 pivot construction stands out through robust profiles and superior-quality hardware, specifically engineered to support large-format doors without flex or drift over time. Surface finishing is treated with meticulous attention to detail, delivering clean, contemporary aesthetics compatible with modern interiors and minimalist design approaches. The pivot mechanism is calibrated for smooth, controlled operation throughout the door's lifespan.

Thermal and acoustic performance are central to this model's engineering. Though an exterior door, the profile and sealing are dimensioned to minimize heat transfer and reduce ambient noise penetration. European performance certifications validate 's exacting manufacturing standards — a brand with deep heritage in German-engineered architectural hardware.

Dimensional customization is the system's defining strength — the PV1800 panel adapts to generous openings, from 2.0m to 2.5m in height and variable widths based on architectural requirements. Availability in standard RAL colors and finish options gives designers freedom to align with the building's visual identity. The pivot system accommodates different opening orientations to suit site conditions.

This door is recommended for hotels, corporate offices, commercial buildings, and luxury residences where the entrance must make a powerful architectural statement. Combined with high-performance glazing and premium metal detailing, PV1800 transforms a simple threshold into a primary design element of the facade.

The PV1800 pivot door opens on a vertical axis (adjustable top-bottom pins), not on side hinges, allowing full 180° openings and creating an architectural gesture that defines the entry experience. The pivot system is designed for generous openings and makes the door motion itself a design statement.

The Ud value of 0.69 W/m²K (at standard 2000×3000 mm size) places the PV1800 in A+ energy efficiency class, equivalent to premium last-generation doors. This is achieved through the 113 mm frame with 32 mm anti-distortion polyamide and two-level EPDM perimeter sealing, preventing thermal loss through convection and radiation.

The PV1800 is equipped with BKS hardware featuring a security cylinder with 5 keys + card for multiple access control and traceability. Co-planarity between frame and leaf combined with two-level EPDM perimeter sealing ensures hermetic and waterproof closure. The 20 mm threshold provides both efficient drainage and accessible entry for users with special requirements.

The PV1800 is available on-demand with custom dimensional configurations — both width and height can be adapted to match your project's spatial proportions and desired architectural rhythm. The reference size for thermal specifications is 2000×3000 mm, but the pivot system supports larger proportions without compromising stability or performance. Consult our showroom team to develop the optimal solution.

The PV1800 pivot system with adjustable pins installs on metal or solid wood frames, provided the structure supports the door's weight (proportionally heavier than standard doors) and ensures geometric rigidity. The 113 mm frame and co-planarity ensure tight joints in brick, concrete, or stone masonry. An on-site technical and design consultation is recommended to verify support levelness and stability.

The core mechanism — the pivot system with adjustable pins — requires annual inspections and minor adjustments (greasing) to maintain smooth operation and geometric stability. EPDM sealing should be inspected biannually and cleaned of dirt or chemical deposits to maintain thermal efficiency. BKS security hardware with cylinder requires no special maintenance beyond annual lock inspection and lubrication. For painted or veneered finishes, avoid harsh abrasives and use only neutral detergents.
