Create a true design statement in your home with our innovative "Room Dividers".
Anyway Doors set off to design a unique 360° central pivoting hinge, that can be fitted to any pivoting door or wall, tailor-made to your needs.
The virtually invisible pivoting hinges are designed to be integrated in the door panel without the need for visible floor fixtures. The compact hinge system features a high-tech comfort closure which works in both swing directions, allowing doors to revolve up to 360°.
These innovative hinges make it possible for a door as heavy as 150kg to feel as light as a feather. The Anyway philosophy allows the door to open in all possible directions. A pivoting door equipped with a 360° central pivot point can therefore revolve endless like a carrousel.
Innovative pivot hinges without built-in floor fixtures
The invisible pivoting hinges are mounted on the floor surface using a compact stainless steel part, without a floor spring or integrated floor fixtures. The minimum floor anchoring (2 bolts +-4cm deep) allows for easy installation on any type of floor even with under floor heating systems. During the development process, a great deal of attention was paid to installation and user-friendliness so that the pivoting door could be used in new builds as well as renovations regardless of the floor construction! The invisible hinges are fully integrated into the door leaf so virtually nothing is visible on the floor.
Offset axis or centrally positioned pivoting doors?
The pivoting hinges are designed to create both offset axis and central 360° pivoting doors. In an offset axis pivoting door, we use a 1/3 ratio for the pivot point mounting. All Anyway door panels can be equipped with this technology. There is a wide choice of "plain pivoting doors", "glass pivoting doors" and "framed glass doors" with an aluminium frame fitted with clear, matte, leavened or even colored glass.
Smart locking technology guarantees a perfect closing unit
All pivot doors close soundlessly by means of patented locking technology integrated in the door as well as in the minimalist frame. The male (convex) part consists of a synthetic profile on the door leaf; the synthetic fitting in the door frame is the female (concave) part. Every Anyway door can therefore be set at an opening of 90°, or 180°/360°. Even with doors swinging at 180°/360°, this guarantees perfect closure and positioning. The invisible built-in ventilation is also provided as standard with full doors and glass-framed doors.
This pivot door concept can be used frameless, but it will lose it's "closing" capabilities this way. Light and air will bleed through around the door. The pivot concept is compatible with all doorframes designed by Anyway Doors for a perfect fit.
