MB-86N Pivot Door Exterior door with an off-center rotation axis

The MB-86N Pivot Door is an external structure. Its primary features are its impressive dimensions and out-of-the-box design. The off-center rotation axis endows the door with a unique look, while the concealed hinges provide a very high load capacity. Structures of this kind are popular with architects and are often used for projects where large-scale dimensions and original design play a major part. Pivot doors are recommended whenever there is a requirement to ensure that an entryway is powerfully accentuated and performs as a showpiece element of a building’s façade.

ALUPROF’s MB-86N Pivot Doors are a statement alternative to their classic profiled, sliding or bifold counterparts. The system can be used to create paneled and glazed doors featuring excellent thermal and acoustic performance, along with first-class air- and watertightness, making it possible to meet requirements for energy efficiency and environmental protection. Other unique aspects include a customized locking system offering one- or two-latch options. System features:
