Frequently Asked Questions
What is a pivot door?
A pivot door rotates on a central pivot point rather than swinging from side hinges. This allows for wider, heavier doors and creates a dramatic, architectural entrance. Pivot doors require a dedicated pivot frame and pivot hinge set — they cannot be hung in a standard hinged door frame.
Is a frame included with this door?
No. This listing is for the door only. A compatible pivot frame must be sourced separately. Browse the Pivot Door Frame — 1200 x 2032mm on this product page.
Is hardware included?
No. Hardware is not included. Pivot doors require specific pivot hardware — standard hinges are not compatible. Browse the compatible pivot hinge set, pivot door lock kit, and back-to-back handles on this product page.
Can this door be used with standard hinges?
No. This is a pivot door and must be installed using a pivot hinge set and a compatible pivot frame. It cannot be hung in a standard hinged door frame.
What finish should I apply to this door?
This door is supplied raw and unfinished. For exterior use, we recommend a quality exterior wood oil, stain, or paint. Seal all six faces — including top and bottom edges — before installation to protect against moisture and weathering. Reapply the finish periodically to maintain protection.
Is Meranti suitable for exterior use?
Yes. Meranti is a dense, durable hardwood widely used in South African exterior door and window manufacturing. It has good natural resistance to weathering and is well-suited for exterior pivot entrance doors when properly finished and maintained.
Are custom sizes available?
Yes. Custom sizes are available on request. Mail us with your opening dimensions and we will quote you accordingly.
