The Fantom Pivot Doorstop: A Hidden Marvel

The Fantom Pivot Doorstop is not your ordinary doorstop. It’s a game-changer for pivot doors, offering a seamless blend of form and function. Let’s explore its unique features:

Patented Dimple and Hold-Open Design:
- Unlike traditional doorstops, the Fantom Pivot features a patented dimple and hold-open mechanism. It allows pivot doors to swing in both directions while securely holding them in the closed position.
- Say goodbye to unsightly protrusions—the Fantom Pivot sits flush with the floor, maintaining a sleek and desirable finish.
Concealed Rare-Earth Magnet Technology:
- The magic lies in the concealed rare-earth magnet. When the door is open, the Fantom Pivot holds it securely. When closed, it remains hidden, allowing the door to swing freely.
- Ideal for both inward- and outward-swinging pivot doors.

Practical Applications

Where can you use the Fantom Pivot Doorstop? Consider the following scenarios:

Pivot Doors:
- As the name suggests, this door-hold system is tailor-made for pivot doors. Whether you have a single pivot door or a set of double doors, the Fantom Pivot ensures smooth operation and secure closure.
- Architects and designers appreciate its unobtrusive design, making it a favorite for modern interiors.
Double Doors:
- In double-door setups, the Fantom Pivot can be used on the active door. It holds the door shut while allowing bidirectional movement.
- Say goodbye to face-fixed drop bolts—this sleek alternative keeps your design aesthetic intact.

Installation Tips and FAQs

Here are some common questions answered:

Carpet Installation:
- Yes, you can install the Fantom Pivot into short-pile carpet. However, avoid deep-pile carpet, as it may create a gap between the door and the sleeve.
- Use a carpet punch or cut away the carpet pile before drilling.
Door Release Mechanism:
- To release the door, simply pull on it—the pin will slide out of the dimple and off the plate. The door is then free to close.
Drilling Hole Size:
- A standard 14mm hole in the floor, 50mm deep, is sufficient for installation.
Magnet Strength:
- The N33 Neodymium rare-earth magnet ensures reliable hold-open functionality.
