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.

Rixson® offers a wide variety of Special Layouts to accommodate most any door and frame application. Some of the most frequently used include: longer pivot pins to extend center hung doors completely to the ceiling and angle pivots for hanging a door without a frame headerwhere a standard center hung pivot cannot be used. Consult your local representative or the factory for detailed information on Special Layouts for Pivots and Pivot Sets.
