Product Information
Full details
The Standard Thrust Bearing Pivot Set is an essential hardware solution for professionals and DIY enthusiasts installing double-action doors weighing up to 80kg. This pivot set offers smooth, reliable operation and long-lasting durability, making it ideal for high-traffic entryways in residential or light commercial settings. While it provides excellent structural support and quiet movement, it is specifically engineered for doors within its weight rating and should not be used for heavy industrial-grade installations exceeding 80kg.

FAQs
Can this pivot be used on single-action doors?
This model is specifically designed for double-action doors where the door needs to swing in both directions.
What is the maximum weight capacity?
The maximum load capacity for this pivot set is 80kg.
Does it come with mounting screws?
The set is supplied as a complete unit for installation; however, ensure your chosen fasteners are appropriate for your specific door material (wood, metal, etc.).
Is the silver finish weather-resistant?
The silver finish is durable for interior and sheltered applications, though it is primarily intended for indoor use.
Can I use this for a glass door?
This pivot set is designed for standard hardware applications; please ensure your glass door has the correct mounting plates to accommodate these pivots.
Troubleshooting
Door is dragging on the floor
Check if the pivot set screws have loosened or if the door alignment has shifted. Re-adjust the pivot mountings to lift the door slightly.
Door movement feels stiff or noisy
Inspect the pivot bearing for debris and apply a light silicone-based lubricant to the bearing surface.
Door does not center correctly
Ensure that the floor pivot and the top pivot are perfectly aligned vertically using a plumb line or laser level.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High weight capacity for standard residential doors

Cons
- Not suitable for doors exceeding 80kg
- Requires precise installation to ensure proper alignment
- Limited to double-action door configurations
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires basic carpentry tools and careful measurement to ensure the door remains perfectly plumb. Always verify that your door weight does not exceed the 80kg rating before beginning the installation.
- Measure the pivot point locations accurately on both the door and the frame.
- Secure the base plates firmly using appropriate heavy-duty screws.
- Test the alignment of the door before fully tightening all mounting hardware.
To maintain the hardware, periodically check for any loose screws that may have vibrated during use. A light application of silicone-based lubricant on the bearing contact points once a year will preserve its smooth operation.
