Glass Doors
Glass is not sought after for its content, but rather for its clarity. It is characterized by the ever-changing scene that lies beyond it. Glass as an architectural material is airy, clean, and introduces natural light. See our glass door gallery here.
Wood, Metal, & Glass Doors
Skillfully combining different materials creates a complex and multisensory experience. While each brilliant on their own, wood, metal, and glass assume a new identity upon uniting. Thoughtful design allows each material to elevate its characteristics in a distinct and sophisticated way. See our wood, metal, and glass door gallery here.
Metal Doors
Metal is equal parts assertive and sophisticated, introducing structure and strength. Metal plays a role in every front door, ranging from minimal to entirely metal constructions. See our metal door gallery here.
Glass & Metal Doors
Glass and metal are a simple, classic, and timeless pair. These materials used in conjunction complement any entryway and create a balance between the defining qualities of glass and metal respectively. Uniquely inspired designs emphasize the interaction between the two materials. See our glass and metal door gallery here.

- A door that rotates about an axis that is nonadjacent to its doorjamb. The nonadjacent axis placement creates a space on either side of a pivoting door and its doorjamb. The active side of a pivot door moves in an opposing direction to the inactive side as the pivot door is operated. The dual spaces and opposing movements of a pivot door create a unique experience in contrast to the single space and single directional movement of a conventional door.
- A door that transfers its weight directly downward. Pivot doors are suspended via a hinge placed under the door and a hinge placed on top of the door. The hinge under the door transfers the door’s weight directly downward. The hinge on top of the door maintains the door’s alignment by subduing the shear force. Both hinges must be capable of mitigating the respective forces for ease of use.
- Conventionally hinged doors indirectly transfer their weight through the doorjamb. The indirect transfer is accomplished through pushing and pulling on the doorjamb. The stress of pushing and pulling causes misalignment and reduces the size and weight capacity of conventionally hinged doors.
Active Space[ak-tiv] [speys]
- The passage area of a pivot door. The passage area is functional and wider than the inactive space.
Inactive Space[in-ak-tiv] [speys]
- The non-passage area of a pivot door. The non-passage area is aesthetic and narrower than the active space.
What does all of this mean to me?
- You can have a really big front door, two to three times bigger than a regular door.
- You can have an entrance door that creates a show as it operates.
- Your front door can transcend all other doors and become an unforgettable experience.
