- Pemko Auto Door Bottom amzn.to/20zMlPl
This beautiful entry door is an Architect's dream! This giant pivot door uses Rixon offset hinges and a Pemko Automatic door bottom for a zero threshold entry. I'll also tell you why I prefer Mortise Locksets at the front door.

This is not a pivot door. it's a conventional swing hinge door where the hinges are attached to the side of the door.
A pivot door rotates on a vertical axis via a spindle offset from the side of the door towards the center. Usually a pivot is used on large doors because the door is far too heavy to be hung via hinges.
I've watched this video no less than 100 times in the last two or three years.
Great ideas, beautifully executed. Thanks for sharing Matt.
Another great video. Thanks again for all your tips and ideas.
Hey Matt, I would love to see a video of different high-end exterior door options
Good stuff Matt! I've got to find some more deep pocket clients....
Hi Matt - I am building my own home and am fascinated by this door. I have a well equipped wood shop and quite a bit of experience but have never built a front door. Plus I am finding the hardware options, and the vendors websites, confusing. I got the Pemko auto door bottom saved in my amazon queue but can't figure out or find the Rixon offset hinges. Any hints? Is Raleigh NC temperate enough for this setup? Thanks
How thick is the door to accommodate both the automatic door bottom and the pivot hinge at the bottom?
I love your videos, Matt, but no hinge, that I know of, that opens inward reveals itself on the outside.
What about at the top of the door? What kind of sealing is done there? On my pivot door (Australia market, Corinthian doors) there is just a brush seal at the top which is pretty useless.
Hi Matt..could you share which company made the door itself?
Yeah... and it only rains 7 days a year in Austin.
All that beautiful attention to detail and then the lever set screws are facing out...???
What is the brand of the full mortise lockset used in the door?
That's an FSB set
