Pivot Wood Doors: The Perfect Statement Piece

A pivot wood door will ensure your home will have the “wow” factor you’ve always wanted. With its extra-wide options that allow for smooth movement, they are sure to give your home a modern-looking appeal. Typically, pivot wood doors are defined by their ability to rotate on hinges on the top and bottom rather than side hinges. These wood doors are perfect for those looking to upscale their home architecturally and create a dramatic entrance. 

At Nick’s Building Supply, we highly regard these doors on their modern-looking appearance, making a perfect fit for contemporary homes and open floor plans.

Hinged wood doors are the ultimate piece that can ensure any home has a door that is complementary and suitable to create a look that will never go out of style. The best part about this door is that it will suit any style of home, making it perfect for homeowners that have already established their style. Making the installation process simple and familiar, hinged doors are a classic way to ensure your doorway is secure and durable.  For those looking for traditional or rustic styles or are in the middle of transitioning their home, hinged wood doors offer the perfect versatile and timeless style.
