Introduction
Pivot sets provide the best possible means of hanging a
door. They are designed to work with the laws of physics to
provide long-lasting performance and reliability.
The weight of the door is supported entirely by the bottom
arm, which is directly connected to the pivot spindle. This
hanging means provides several important advantages:
• Fasteners on the door and frame are in shear rather than
tension (as with hinges) and are less likely to pull out overtime. This creates less stress on the frame assembly,
prevents door sagging and allows the door to swing with less
resistance from friction.
• A door supported in this manner relies on the strength of the
floor to carry the weight, not the frame. This allows
extremely heavy doors to be hung in an opening and allows
door adjustment throughout the life of the building to
compensate for settlement. |
Aesthetics
• Offset or center hung pivot sets are more attractive
than alternative door hanging devices.
• Full floor-to-ceiling concealment is offered for center
hung doors providing almost unlimited design
flexibility.
• Extended spindles available to raise door above
finished floor for complete concealment.
• Specification of heavy panels for door face with
standard offset pivot preparation is available.
• Doors up to 1,750 pounds are accommodated,
allowing all standard and heavy doors in a building
to be hung by same hanging means. |
Performance
• Full weight of door is borne by floor pivot, providing
long pivot life and trouble-free operation.
• Screws are in shear in pivot-set installations and are
less likely to pull out from tension–eliminates
sagging doors.
• Vertical adjustment provides for field modifications to
suit conditions |
Safety & Security
• Models are available for labeled fire and lead-lined
doors.
• Doors cannot be removed by vandals.
• Virtually concealed, pivots are not abuse or vandal
prone.
• All offset pivots shall be UL10C compliant. |
Economy
• Pivots provide longer life and more trouble-free
operation than other door hanging means.
• Door and frame life is lengthened. |
Suggested Specification
All pivots and/or pivot sets shall be the product of one manufacturer.
Sets as noted in hardware groups shall be matching in design for
both labeled fire doors, lead-lined doors and regular doors. Pivots for
20-minute fire doors shall be non-ferrous and match the finish of
adjacent hardware. All pivot sets are required to meet ANSI grade
one standard as listed in ANSI 156.4. Caps shall be hex type to
increase security. |
