Pivot Door Solutions
Portella only partners with the very best designers and manufacturers in the industry when it comes to hardware. We are proud to offer pivot hardware options from FritsJurgens, whose products are the most cutting-edge and advanced hardware available for pivot hinges on the market.
Pivot Hardware Details
Other types of pivot hardware on the market require the installation of bulky recessed boxes in the floor and ceiling to secure the door and control it. However, the pivot hardware offered by Portella and created by FritsJurgens uses advanced technology and materials that require only minimal hardware to be embedded in the flooring. This makes installation for both new builds and retrofits much easier because tile and concrete don’t have to be removed to install the hardware.
Pivot hinge systems can be electrified for security and controlled access and can include features like self-closing, soft closes, and various hold positions, depending on the door size and system you choose. The hidden nature of the mechanisms creates a sleek, clean look that can’t be replicated by any other pivot hinge system on the market.
