Wood Doors
Our wood pivot doors are warm and inviting, yet maintain an ultra modern edge. Hardwood planks are worked and finished to perfection. The rich colors and flowing grain of the wood add an additional dimension to the door. Lighter woods such as White Oak maintain a cooler toned appearance, while Walnut Wood introduces rich color.
Our wood doors are available in two distinct methods of construction: as metal pivot doors with wood panels or as wood doors with a supporting metal frame. Each method offers a unique combination of wood, metal, and glass. Our wood panels are never laminated and are made exclusively from quality hardwood.
Metal Doors
Metal pivoting doors are the icon of modern home design. Pivot or hinged, our modern metal doors are built from the bottom-up. Each step of our production process is done in-house and held to the highest quality standards. Keep it simple with a monochromatic look or introduce a dimensional appearance with one of our metal skins.
Our unique door skins bring out metal’s natural beauty. Modern doesn’t have to be cold and synthetic. Modern can be organic and sophisticated. Your home entry will be like no other with our exclusive organic metal finishes and hand-sculpted pivoting door hardware.

- 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. A pivot door is also referred to as a swivel door because the door “swivels” upon this offset pivoting point.
- 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.

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.
