Balanced Door

Balanced Doors

Balanced doors use wind pressure to reduce the force needed to open large exterior entrances. Unlike standard doors that require more effort against strong outdoor winds, these doors have a hidden sliding pivot arm between the door leaf and frame. The pivot design uses pressure differences to allow the door to open easily even in high-wind conditions, and the hardware ensures smooth closing.

All pivots and closing devices are installed discreetly, keeping the door visually clean while ensuring durability and low maintenance. Repairs can be done without removing the door, and the system can be customized for different sizes, materials, and finishes. Balanced doors can accommodate large leaves/wings up to 8 meters high and 1.8 meters wide, which is suitable for high-end building façades.
