Most Innovative Entry Door | 555 Series Pivot Door System

The 555 Series Pivot Door by Awake Window & Door Co. is a proprietary pivot assembly. Designed as an unrestricted pivot point assembly, it allows for full flexibility in pivot location, enabling designers to adjust door movement and proportions without being constrained by fixed hardware positions. This level of flexibility supports larger panel sizes while maintaining performance and usability and enables some of the largest pivot door configurations in the residential market, according to company officials. 

The system integrates a concealed overhead closer and a magnetic catch mechanism,  removing the need for exposed hardware and providing a silent, seamless and adjustable latching force. The door system also supports independent size options as large as 120 inches wide and a max panel height of 168 inches. It can be configured with no sill or low sill conditions. A range of insulated glass options incorporating low-emissivity coatings and argon-filled units supports energy performance, while multiple finish options provide design flexibility. 

At Canyon Vista, a private residence and retreat space in Sedona, Arizona, designed by The Ranch Mine, the 555 Series Pivot Door plays a central architectural role. The home is designed to dissolve the boundary between interior space and the surrounding red rock landscape, with floor-to-ceiling glazing capturing expansive mountain views and minimal wall conditions throughout. An 8-foot-wide Series 555 pivot door marks the primary entry, operating not only as a functional element but as a key design gesture that reinforces the home’s connection to its environment.
