Pivot door PV4700-2

PV4700-2 pivot door — axial geometry, premium engineering, fully customizable for ambitious architectural projects.

The PV4700 series stands at the pinnacle of exterior pivot door systems, representing the reference solution for projects demanding powerful architectural statements. The dual-axis pivot geometry delivers exceptional stability and absolutely silent operation regardless of final dimensions chosen. This design platform enables striking visual signatures in critical transition spaces, from premium office building entrances to high-end residential interventions.

PV4700-2 profiles are manufactured from German structural aluminium alloys with standard or custom anodised finishes following RAL specification codes. The door section combines optimised wall thickness with integrated thermal insulation systems, reducing cold bridges and ensuring performance in temperate-continental climates. The glazing can be configured as triple-glazed with noble gas fills and low-emissivity coatings, tailored to regional energy efficiency requirements. Isolation gaskets on both carriage and frame are engineered from UV-resistant synthetic materials, maintaining sealing integrity across wide thermal cycles and repetitive opening cycles.

Thermal performance sits in the superior class for pivot systems, with heat transmission coefficients aligned to German DIN standards and European certifications. The calibrated ball-bearing axial mechanics provide cumulative sound insulation—ground contact minimises vibration transmission through masonry. The system supports door leaves up to 400 kg without mechanical degradation, a capacity certified through extensive opening-closing cycle testing. Resistance to water ingress and urban pollutants is guaranteed for minimum 10 years under standard use conditions.

PV4700-2 configurations accept clear apertures from 1100×2600 mm through 1500×3500 mm and beyond, with field-adjustable tolerances. Available finishes span silver anodised, anthracite grey, black, and custom RAL variants on request. The opening mechanics—top and bottom pivot—adapt for symmetric bilateral swing, right-dominant, or left-dominant operation depending on architectural flow intention. Handles and finishing details are sourced from the same material palette, ensuring complete aesthetic cohesion.

This door deploys optimally in corporate foyer entries, high-end residential vestibules, galleries, and premium retail spaces. Compatibility with brick, exposed concrete, or porcelain-clad walls permits adaptation across diverse architectural contexts. Pairing with premium solid wood flooring, natural stone, or patinated concrete creates refined transitions between living zones and exterior, reinforcing intended spatial impact.

The pivot door uses adjustable pivot pins instead of hidden hinges: the top and bottom pins anchor into the head and threshold structure, allowing 360° opening fluidity. This enables larger architectural proportions—up to 2000×3000 mm—and a pure geometric line without hinge recesses.

The PV4700-2 achieves a thermal coefficient Ud = 0.69 W/m²K through a 113 mm frame with a 32 mm anti-distortion polyamide insert that interrupts thermal bridging. Sealing is achieved through 2-level EPDM around the full perimeter, ensuring hermetic closure and EN ISO 10077-2 certified performance.

The BKS security cylinder includes 5 keys and a card—standard for high-security residential and commercial applications. The system enables custom locking configurations and compatibility with smart access; the exact break-in resistance classification (RC2/RC3) is determined during customization based on project requirements.

Installation requires precise structural preparation—the top pin anchors in the beam, the bottom in the threshold with a 20 mm accessible ramp. The PV4700-2 is fully customizable for any standard or custom frame—masonry, brick, concrete, steel structures—with adjustable pins accommodating minor level variations. We recommend consulting the design team for each specific situation.

The PV4700-2 offers full dimensional customization—the reference is 2000×3000 mm, but the pivot system allows made-to-order production within extended ranges based on architectural and structural requirements. Exact minimums and maximums depend on frame profile and installation details; consultation with the design team is essential to validate proportions, pivot adjustments, and compatibility with available space.

doors with premium painted finish require regular cleaning with soft cloth and water to prevent dust buildup. The pivot pins and mechanism should be checked annually—minimal adjustment may be needed if the door drifts slightly. The painted finish is durable and UV-resistant for exterior applications, and minor damage can be touched up. For optimal lifespan, avoid standing moisture and keep the threshold clear of seasonal debris.
