Threshold Type

You can choose from two standard threshold configurations, depending upon your project specifications: type 1 or type 2.

If there is any type of wood covering on the interior of the house, you will need a type 2. The type 2 threshold has a 90 degree angle on the interior facing side for the wood covering to butt up against.

If the exterior floor is the same level as the interior floor, you will need a type 1 threshold. More commonly, though, the exterior floor is lower than the interior floor and you will need a type 2 threshold.

You may choose between two different finishes for the aluminum threshold cover plate: black or grey.

Face Material Explanation

Please tell us a brief explanation of what face material you plan on applying.

Examples; unique lumber, siding, cold rolled steel, leather, reclaimed barn wood, drywall, tile, sugi ban, powder coated metal.

We can order many specialty woods, please contact us if the wood selection on our website does not have what you’re looking for. This product is for woods we’re unable to work with in our shop.

Face Thickness

The thickness of the face material you are applying will determine; the overall thickness of the door, how large the side caps should be and the jamb depth sizes available. Please contact us if the size you are doing is not listed.

Choosing a Wood Species…

We offer a range of wood species to go standard with our doors. If you would like something other than what we have, in most cases we can source other wood types that are not listed below, though prices will vary. All our doors are shipped out unfinished and stain ready. (No stain or clear coat)

As you decide which wood you’ll choose please consider these important factors. How the wood species will react to your climate and site condition. Also, how it collaborates with the overall design of the door and your project. If you have specific questions about what wood to choose that are not answered here, feel free to reach out to us.

Our Standard Selection

Mahogany (Sapele)
African Mahogany (Sapele) is a reddish-brown hardwood wood and is desired for its rarity, strength, and beauty. It is one of our most durable, and resists swelling and warping, making it ideal for harsher environments and coastal climates. With its stability and smooth surface, Sapele is also used as our Paint Grade wood selection.

Walnut
American Black Walnut hardwood is naturally darker in color, much like an espresso brown. It is strong, hard, and exceptionally durable, without being excessively heavy. When sealed there is a dark contrast from the heartwood and sapwood offering an exotic finish. Although Walnut is naturally dark it has the propensity to lighten over time.

White Oak
White Oak hardwood has a medium brown grain with an olive cast, while the sapwood ranges from a light cream to tan. Its moisture movement is medium to high and it has a good density with a medium to coarse texture. White Oak is more resistant to weathering issues than Red Oak.

Cedar
Cedar is a light, reddish-brown softwood. This wood is softer than most hardwoods. Cedar’s fine, straight grain and uniform texture provides a smooth surface ideal for staining, although it requires more maintenance than Mahogany. Cedar remains stable and resists warping, making it a reliable and attractive lighter option.

Premium Alder
Alder is a light brown with a yellow or reddish tinge. The wood is fairly straight grained with a uniform texture. Alder is a relatively soft hardwood of medium density that has low bending strength, shock resistance, and stiffness. Premium Alder captures the grain beauty without the rustic feel of open knots, will contain some closed knots.

Separate Sidelight Frame Width

In many cases, customers wish to purchase sidelights for their door units. The Ogden sidelights are built as a separate unit. You will need a 2 inch structural support post installed between the sidelights and door frame. We do not provide this structural support. The size of your sidelights will be the size of the separate sidelight unit. For example, if you have a 48″ wide door and a 12″ left sidelight, your total unit width would be 48″ door + 2″ post + 12″ sidelight, totaling 52″ in width.

For larger sizes please contact us

Glass Sidelight Placement on Door

You can choose between the following sidelight configurations:

– Right Sidelight

– Left Sidelight

– Transom light

– Double Sidelight

– Left Sidelight with Transom

– Right Sidelight with Transom

– Double Sidelight with Transom

Sidelight placement is specified with reference to the exterior view. If you want a 12″ sidelight that is on the right side when viewed from the exterior, click on the dropdown options under “Right Sidelight” and select the option: 12″ right sidelight. If you want a double sidelight, simply a size under both the the Right Sidelight and Left Sidelight options. Double sidelights can be of different sizes.

Net Sidelight Size

This is the size of the actual Door jamb and Sidelight jamb combined. When inputting the net frame size you want to put in a number that is at least a half inch less than the rough opening size to allow room to square and level the unit. The door will be built with the sidelight as a separate unit so be sure to factor in the 2″ structural post into your net sizes. For example, if you have a 48″ x 96″ door and a 12″ left sidelight, your total unit width would be 48″ door + 2″ post + 12″ sidelight, totaling 52″ in width (the rough opening size should be somewhere around 52 1/2″ X 96 1/2″). If you have a 48″ x 96″ door, a 12″ left sidelight and a 22″ right sidelight, your total unit width would be 12″ sidelight + 2″ post + 48″ door + 2″ post + 22″ sidelight, totaling 86″ in width (the rough opening size should be somewhere around 86 1/2″ X 96 1/2″).

Sidelight Frame Width

In many cases, customers wish to purchase sidelights for their door units. We build sidelights directly into the door unit, so the jamb and sidelights connect seamlessly. All you need to do is tell us what kind of sidelights you want, what size they should be and what kind of glass you want.

For larger sizes please contact us

Glass Sidelight Placement on Door

You can choose between the following sidelight configurations:

– Right Sidelight

– Left Sidelight

– Transom light

– Double Sidelight

– Left Sidelight with Transom

– Right Sidelight with Transom

– Double Sidelight with Transom

Sidelight placement is specified with reference to the exterior view. If you want a 12″ sidelight that is on the right side when viewed from the exterior, click on the dropdown options under “Right Sidelight” and select the option: 12″ right sidelight. If you want a double sidelight, simply a size under both the the Right Sidelight and Left Sidelight options. Double sidelights can be of different sizes.

Net Sidelight Size

This is the size of the actual Sidelight jamb. When inputting the net frame size you want to put in a number that is at least a half inch less than the rough opening size to allow room to square and level the unit. The door will be built with the sidelight attached so be sure to input the height of the door and the height of the sidelight the same. Example: 48″ X 98″ door with a 18″ X 98″ sidelight will get you a door and sidelight combo that measures 66″ X 98″ (the rough opening size should be somewhere around 66 1/2″ X 98 1/2″).

Our standard color for the integrated handle is BLK-120 (black). You may choose any color available. We can purchase colors from the link below. Please look through the options, Prismatic Powders allows you to buy samples if you’d like to see the colors in person. We only need to know the color code.

Kogan Custom Wood Handle

The Custom Wood Handle for the Kogan door is 3″ wide, 1 1/4″ deep. The length will be determined by your door size in order to fit within the top and bottom rail correctly. the Custom Wood Handle will come unfinished, stain ready (same as the door). Handle is sold as a set (one for interior and one for exterior). You have an option to choose a different wood type for the handle than for the door. Mahogany – Sapele is shown in the product photo above.

When purchased alongside the Kogan, Pivot Door Company will custom make your handle to fit your door size, prep your door appropriately. The handle will still need to be installed on site after the door is installed. This ensures we’re able to appropriately package the handle so it is not damaged during shipping and the door can lay flat for shipping.

Pivot Placement

The pivot placement is the distance the pivot pin will be placed away from the vertical edge of the rough opening. Generally speaking, we suggest placing the pivot over one quarter of the distance of the door width. We find that this presents a solid aesthetic for most door dimensions. See table below for suggested pivot placements.

If your rough opening is 48” and you choose a 9” pivot placement, the door will roughly have a 37” pass through opening. You want to ensure you leave at least a 36” opening. See diagram for details or contact us for clarification.

Suggested Pivot Placements

Door Size Width	Pivot Placement
42″ – 44″	4″
45″ – 47″	6″
48″ – 53″	9″
54″ – 60″	12″

FedEx Freight® Curbside Delivery

Our standard shipping method is FedEx Freight® Curbside Delivery. This means a driver will arrive at the delivery site, and will not assist in getting the door off of the truck or moving it up the driveway. You will need to have 4-5 able-bodied laborers available to unload the crate off of the truck, to help balance the crate as the driver lowers the lift-gate. Your laborers can then move the crate up the driveway, to the garage or front for installation. You may also have a forklift with extensions to unload or a receiving dock if you’re unable to have laborers available to receive the delivery.

Most customers receive their crate in about 4 business days. FedEx takes 3-5 business days to receive your crate in your local dock. Then they will call the shipping contact to arrange a delivery window based on their specific truck/driver availability. They can hold it for a maximum of 72 hours before they will label it as rejected and ship it back to us.

Inside Delivery – $3000

If you are not able to receive a curbside delivery. We do offer an inside delivery option. Please contact our sales department to discuss this option. (719) 425-4289

Pivot Door Company will hire a local third party moving company to move your crate from your FedEx local dock or accept delivery at your job site. The shipping contact will still need to be available to coordinate the delivery onsite. The moving company will then transport your crate inside your garage or house. Please note, the customer will be responsible for the conditions of the area it is stored. Our crates are not weatherproof. The shipping crate cannot be stored or transported on its side, only flat. While the moving company may take off the top crate lid for you to inspect the contents, they are not responsible for fully uncrating or removal of any trash.

International FedEx Freight Curbside

Canada shipping includes standard international curbside shipping as stated in the above “FedEx Freight® Curbside Delivery”. All taxes, duties and custom fees are included in the flat rate price. You will not receive another bill for importing/shipping.

Swing Configuration Double Door

When you order your pivot-hung entryway, you have options when it comes to how the door will swing. Though 99% of the time, you will want a door that swings into the interior (in-swing), we are set up to build jambs where the door swings out to the exterior (pushing your visitors out of the pathway of your tremendous door).

However, when it comes to right-hand or left-hand swing, the layout of your installation site will determine the swing configuration. To determine if the door is left-hand or right-hand in-swing, imagine you are looking at the door from the street. If the pivot point is on the left side, it is a left-hand in-swing. If the pivot point is on the right-hand side, the door is a right-hand in-swing.

Interior Prebuilt Wood Type

Choosing a Wood Species…

For pre-built Flat doors we offer four wood veneers: Mahogany (Sapele), Walnut, Paint Grade, White Oak. If you would like a greater range of wood types to choose from, you will need to order a customized exterior door. All our doors are shipped out unfinished and stain ready. (No stain or clear coat)

As you decide which wood you’ll choose, the most important factor is how the wood species goes with the overall design of the door and your project. If you have specific questions about what wood to choose that are not answered here, feel free to reach out to us.

Our Wood Selection for Pre-built

Mahogany (Sapele) Veneer

This exotic reddish-brown wood is desired for its rarity, strength, and beauty. It is very durable, and resists swelling and warping, making it ideal for marine uses and high moisture areas.

Walnut Veneer

Walnut is straight-grained in the trunk of the tree, but possesses a wavy grain in wood found closer to the roots. Walnut wood finishes beautifully, holding paint and stain exceptionally well.

White Oak Veneer

White Oak is valued for its light and even color.

Paint Grade

We offer a paint grade option made from Mahogany (Sapele) veneer. This is acceptable for painting using a variety of paint (pigment) products.

Inside Delivery

Pivot Door Company will hire a local third party moving company to move your crate from your FedEx local dock or accept delivery at your job site. The shipping contact will still need to be available to coordinate the delivery onsite. The moving company will then transport your crate inside your garage or house. Please note, the customer will be responsible for the conditions of the area it is stored. Our crates are not weatherproof. The shipping crate cannot be stored or transported on its side, only flat. While the moving company may take off the top crate lid for you to inspect the contents, they are not responsible for fully uncrating or removal of any trash.

Pivot Hardware

In almost all cases, customers will wish to specify the Free-swing A pivot hardware, which allows the door to move as a standard hinge hardware would. We offer a Free-swing B pivot hardware for applications that could benefit from pivot hardware with a lower profile. We offer the Closer hardware upgrade for customers using the door in commercial applications or for customers who want the doors to always return to a fixed position automatically. See descriptions and diagrams below.

Free-swing A and B Pivot Hardware

Our standard pivot hardware is a durable, specially engineered free-swing pivot. This pivot hardware works for a wide range of doors, from small to very large. Use the diagram below to determine if your application is better suited to Free-swing A or Free-swing B. No matter the door size, the free-swing pivot hinge allows for effortless door operation. The hardware incorporates sets of ball-bearings for smooth, long-lasting performance. The door swings freely around the pivot point. There are no springs or tension pulling the door closed.

Closer, Dorma BTS/80

In commercial applications and in rare residential applications, we install a bottom closer. The bottom closer creates constant tension on the door’s swing to pull the door into the closed position. This means one must hold the door in order to keep it open. With a closer the door will not rest in an open position unless the hold-open feature is activated, which holds the door open at a 100° angle.

Net Frame Size Wall System

Measurements to Know

When sizing the door you will need to consider two principle measurements, rough opening and frame size. See the image below for reference.

Rough Opening

The rough opening is the distance from stud to stud for framing purposes. We advise that you build a rough opening that is ½ in. wider and 1/2 in. taller than the total door unit. We find that this allows for sufficient shimming and adjustments during installation.

Frame Width

The Frame Width is the actual width of the door jamb. When determining the frame width you want to put in a number that is at least a half inch less than the rough opening size to allow room to square and level the door. For example, for a rough opening 48 inches wide, order a frame width of 47 1/2 inches.

Frame Height

The Frame Height is the actual height of the door jamb. This includes the the header and threshold. When determining the frame height you want to put in a number that is at least a half inch less than the rough opening size to allow room to square and level the door. For example, for a rough opening 96 inches tall, order a frame height of 96 1/2 inches.

Pivot Door Wall System Measurements

Pivot Placement Exterior Wall System

The pivot placement is the distance the pivot pin will be placed away from the vertical edge of the rough opening. Generally speaking, we suggest placing the pivot over one quarter of the distance of the door width. We find that this presents a solid aesthetic for most door dimensions.

The pivot placement indicates where your want the doors in the wall system to pivot. The pivot distance can be 1/4 the width of the door, which means the pivot will be placed a quarter of the way into the door. If you choose a pivot distance of 1/2 the width of the door, the pivot will be placed in the center of the door on each door in the wall system. You may also choose a fixed pivot distance of 4 inches, regardless of the door width. Please contact us if you need a custom pivot placement. See the diagram below for a visual representation.

Door Style

You may choose from a number of our popular interior doors styles. Please use the diagram below to to identify which door style you wish to incorporate into the wall system design. Contact us with questions about custom styles.

Interior Swing Configuration

Swing configuration defines the direction of the door motion and from which side the pivot is placed. You can choose either a Right-hand Swing or a Left-hand Swing. The layout of your installation site will determine the swing configuration. To determine if the door is left-hand or right-hand swing, imagine you are looking at the door from the outside. If the pivot point is on the left side, it is a left-hand swing. If the pivot point is on the right-hand side, the door is a right-hand swing.

Use the diagram below to help identify which configuration will serve your project best.

Door Action

Door Action

The Door Action describes how a door swings. A single acting door swings just one direction, in or out. A double acting door swings two directions, in and out.

Number of Doors

You must choose the number of doors that make up the wall system. We will use the Frame Width and the Number of Doors to calculate the width of the individual doors in the wall system. For example, if the frame width is 120 inches and you indicate that the Number of Doors in the wall system should be 5, the individuals doors will be approximately 24 inches wide. If the frame width is 120 inches and you indicate the Number of Doors should be 4, the individual doors will be approximately 30 inches wide. If the frame width is 120 inches and you indicate the Number of Doors should be 3, the individual doors will be approximately 40 inches wide. Please contact us directly if you wish to configure the wall system and door widths differently.

Single and Double Bore	Mortise	Other
We will pre-drill the door for a handle with 2 3/8 in. or 2 3/4 in. backset. Standard bore diameter is 2 1/8 in. The term “backset” refers to the distance from the edge of the door to the center of the bore hole. See the diagram below for more details.	We can mortise the door for many entry lock sets. Please contact us directly to configure your specific requirements.	If you wish for us to prep for a handle you purchase from another vendor, you will need to provide us with the specifications for the handle or lockset so we can properly prep. You may be required to send it to us for us to adequately prep your door.

Alternatively, you may decide that you want to wait and have a local carpenter prep the for the door handle.

Jamb Depth

Jamb depth depends on the thickness of the walls into which the door unit will be placed. Most walls are studded out with 2×4’s or 2×6’s, and so, our most common jamb depths are 4 5/8 in. and 6 5/8 in., respectively. Usually the jamb is flush with the interior and exterior wall covering, with the shim gap covered by casing.

We have standard jamb depths of

4 5/8 in.

5 1/4 in.

5 1/2 in.

6 5/8 in.

7 1/2 in.

If you wish for us to provide a jamb depth different from one of our standard options, please contact us.

Choosing a Door Size
Because each door we make is sized specifically for the project, you are not restricted to any standard sizes.

Measurements to Know
When sizing the door you will need to consider two principle measurements, rough opening and frame size. See the image below for reference.

The rough opening is the distance from stud to stud for framing purposes. We advise that you build a rough opening that is ½ in. wider and 1/2 in. taller than the total door unit. We find that this allows for sufficient shimming and adjustments during installation.

This is the size of the actual door jamb. When determining the net frame size you want to put in a number that is at least a half inch less than the rough opening size to allow room to square and level the door. For example, for a rough opening 48 in., order a net frame size of 47 1/2 in.

Vertical Plank Placement

If you choose a door style with a steel plank, you have the option to place it on the handle side or on the pivot side.
