The door slab, a top pivot, a ceiling plate, a pivot system and a floor plate comprise the basic components of a pivot door. The pivot can basically divided into two types, the top, and the bottom ones. Whichever hinge system the pivots are embedded inside the door thus both invisible on the main finished door.
