Words by the architects
Hidden in the door
Besides art and design, functionality is also important. Inside these pivot doors is the System M pivot hinge by FritsJurgens. Almost invisible, like all systems by FritsJurgens, because they are integrated in the door itself. Only a small ceiling- and floor plate are visible. The attention goes towards the design of the pivot door, one with the interior.
Endless possibilities
By choosing the System M pivot door hinges by FritsJurgens the possibilities regarding weight and dimensions are unlimited. The systems by FritsJurgens give architects the freedom to bring the creativity in their designs to new heights.
Smart installation
Every pivot hinge system by FritsJurgens is easy and quick to install, thanks to the full integration in the top and bottom of the door. Structural elements and floor installations are not necessary. Just the small and after installation barely visible floor- and ceiling plates have to be placed. The floor plate fasteners only have to be mortised 8mm in the floor. This means that the systems are suitable for every type of floor, even when floor heating is applied.
Ultimate elegance
A pivot door exceeds the function of a door: combined with the design and architecture of a building, like the Nordiawerf, it is a unique design statement. The System M pivot hinge has hold positions at 0, 90 and -90 degrees and an adjustable opening- and closing damping as well. With just the touch of a finger the pivot door is set into a single fluent motion. Ultimate elegance with FritsJurgens Inside.
