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 time. 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.

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 forboth labeled fire doors, lead-lined doors and regular doors. Pivots for20-minute fire doors shall be non-ferrous and match the finish ofadjacent hardware. All pivot sets are required to meet ANSI gradeone standard as listed in ANSI 156.4. Caps shall be hex type toincrease security.

Safety & Security

• Models are available for labeled fire and lead-lineddoors.
• Doors cannot be removed by vandals.
• Virtually concealed, pivots are not abuse or vandalprone.
• All offset pivots shall be UL10C compliant.

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.
