- Door closing and latching speed are separately adjustable via screws in the header bar
Commercial Threshold
Double Ramp
Usually used when placed directly onto a floor with the same level internally as externally.
Note: this option is NOT available with a sill.
Please note: Commercial pivot doors do not have a weather rating. In exposed areas it is possible that they can be blown open, this can lead to draughts / water ingress. Consideration for additional weathering such as a canopy or porch should be made when carrying out a site survey.
