Pivot doors are increasingly popular in modern Gold Coast homes due to their impressive appearance and smooth operation. These big doors are loved for their clean look, large size, and the fact you can’t see any hinges.
But here’s the problem many homeowners discover after getting their dream door installed. You can’t fit regular security screens to pivot doors the way you would with hinged doors. This means families can’t open their door for fresh air without worrying about security.
At Screen and Blind Master, we have a solution for this problem. Our custom solutions mean your pivot door retains its beautiful look and functionality, as well as keeping your family safe..
Understanding the Pivot Door Security Screen Challenge
Pivot doors work completely differently from normal hinged doors. Instead of hinges on the side, they spin on special pins at the top and bottom of the frame.
This is what gives them that smooth, seamless look. But it also means there’s nowhere to put a security screen like you normally would.
When the door opens, it sits flush or slightly past the door frame. There’s simply no space left for a standard security screen to fit.
Our Custom Prowler Proof Frame Solution
Screen and Blind Master has a reliable solution to solve this common problem. We build a custom Prowler Proof aluminium frame that bolts straight onto your house’s brickwork or timber frame.
This custom Prowler Proof frame works completely separately from your existing pivot door frame. It creates the space we need while giving us something solid to attach our security screen to.
Our solution doesn’t interfere with your pivot door at all. The door still swings freely without hitting the security screen. Please note that automatic door closers cannot be fitted to Pivot door security screens as there is not enough available space.
Side Panel Security Solutions
In some cases, pivot doors come with side panels, which add an extra layer of complexity to the security situation. Screen and Blind Master provides solutions that extend beyond the main frame, ensuring that the side panels are effectively covered.
By creating separate Prowler Proof frames for the pivot door and the side panels, we eliminate potential weak points that intruders could exploit. Your whole entrance area gets the same level of protection.
