Roto-mechanism for doors: cost, comparison of popular models

The rotary door is an innovative system that will help decorate any interior and make it more functional. The rotary mechanism for interior doors appeared not so long ago; previously it was more often used in public places: hotels, shopping centers, airports, business centers. Of course, a rotary door mechanism has a higher cost compared to conventional interior doors. Nevertheless, a high price is not a hindrance to having such an exclusive item at home. You can do it yourself. The following article is a guide to the complex mechanisms and prices of pivoting interior doors.

Doors for small apartments

An ordinary swing door in a small apartment, you will agree, will look out of place

An ordinary swing door in a small apartment, you will agree, will look out of place. Such a door does not save space and does not contribute to the visual expansion of the room. For apartments that are small in size, you need to look for another solution. Fortunately, the modern market for interior doors offers a large selection of door leaves varying in style, design and technical performance.

Now it will not be difficult to simulate the design of a small-sized apartment using interior doors and make it not only free, but also convenient for modern life. Sliding doors, folding doors, sliding doors and doors with a rotary system will come to our aid.

Doors with a rotary system are an excellent solution for saving space. The rotor mechanism is a rotating structure around its axis. The design guide is fixed in the doorway, or more precisely, in the upper part. The universal fastening makes it easy to open the door in any direction, which is an excellent option for those families with small children, pensioners or people with disabilities. You don't have to make a lot of effort to open the door. This model is ideal for high-tech and minimalist interiors; it can harmoniously fit into a classically decorated home. The asymmetrical installation of the door looks especially original.

Interior revolving doors

Interior revolving doors came to us quite recently, but have already proven themselves to be an excellent solution for small apartments.

Traditional hinged interior doors create some inconvenience in cramped hallways and narrow corridors. And door leaves with a rotary mechanism save precious centimeters and provide the opportunity to make efficient use of space.

In addition, they solve the problem of lack of free space for opening the sashes in closely spaced openings. And they eliminate the possibility of damage due to collisions of the canvases. And I would also like to note that thanks to the unusual opening-closing pattern, such doors will serve as an important element in the interior.

Roto-doors

Pivot and slide interior doors provide maximum space savings due to the ability to open them in any direction

Pivot-sliding interior doors provide maximum space savings due to the ability to open them in any direction. The rotating system on which the door leaf is attached rotates it around the circle within the door frame.

Roto doors look very unusual, so they can become a real highlight of the interior. In addition, their soundproofing properties are much better than those of other types of sliding models - the closed leaf is adjacent to the frame, and the lock does not allow the door to swing open on its own. When open, half of the door leaf ends up in one room, and the other in the next room. Most often, rotary-sliding models are preferred when installing doors to a bathroom, corridor, or dressing room.

In connection with the restyling of the shoulder straps, changes were made to the design of the Roto-door, namely: The groove in the frame was increased from 3 to 6 mm. The upper decorative element of the box has increased in thickness from 10 to 16 mm. The aesthetic appearance of the product has changed, but there have been no changes in design. The minimum opening depth is 95 mm.

Advantages of doors with a rotary system:

• The mechanism is designed specifically for people with limited mobility.
• Single-leaf and double-leaf options are possible: the second gives more significant space savings.
• The rotating mechanism of the rotary door operates smoothly and absolutely silently.
• Any fabric can be used in the form of a revolving door, which allows you to decorate it with glass or stained glass. You can also make a door according to your own sketch.
• Good noise insulation is achieved due to the built-in brush seal.

Flaws:

• It is advisable to make such doors from lightweight material to ensure a longer service life of the rollers and grooves, since there are maximum permissible loads for them.

Design flaws

It is worth understanding that any design has disadvantages. Based on the significance of the shortcomings, the real value of the product and its functionality under certain conditions are determined. Pivoting interior doors have a number of the following disadvantages:

• Requires the use of only light types of canvas;
• Complexity of design;
• High price.

It is not possible to equip a structure of this type with heavy door leaves due to a significant increase in wear of parts. Also, under the weight of the canvas made of natural materials, deformation of the elements of the rotary-motor mechanism is possible. For the manufacture of rotary doors, composite materials in the form of MDF are used, which are lightweight.

Due to the complexity of the design, making a rotary door yourself is an extremely problematic and time-consuming process. The presence of a ready-made rotor mechanism makes the procedure slightly easier.

The high cost of doors of this type of action is due to the presence of a complex mechanism and a complex assembly system. Almost always, the production of rotary doors is carried out using high-precision equipment with program control modes. The assembly procedure is carried out semi-automatically.

Rotary doors as an alternative to sliding doors

Sliding (sliding) doors, as a rule, move on roller hangers along a reinforced rail parallel to the wall. At the same time, they do not “eat up” space or block corridors. However, in this case, it will be impossible to place furniture, hang pictures, mirrors or switches next to the opening.

And a structure hiding in a wall niche will not be so cheap, and to install it, you will most likely have to build a new partition, which is why many people have a complex, two-fold attitude towards such doors. But now we have clever roto-doors, and they help solve these problems.

Note: the rotary door leaf moves sideways, towards the jamb, along a supporting rail inserted into the top block of the frame. Synchronously, the sash rotates 180° around the central vertical axis.

The rotary door mechanism guarantees easy opening and closing in both directions. The door leaf moves within the opening and does not interfere with interior design. True, in the “open” position it opens into adjacent rooms, but nevertheless, it takes up half as much space in the aisles as a standard swing door.

REZE fittings

Window fittings REZE

— fittings for rotary and tilt-and-turn plastic windows. Serial production has been organized in Turkey since 2012, so REZE fittings can be considered a relatively young development compared to most of its competitors.

REZE fittings

took about five years and became the main pride of the manufacturer. This is because the window components are based on modules that ensure quick installation.

It is worth noting the advantages of REZE

:

• Reliability and durability.
  The latest technologies were used in the development of fittings, which made it possible to create a high-quality product. For greater reliability, product parts are connected to each other using special joining elements. And the fittings themselves are made of wear-resistant alloy.
• Burglary resistance.
  The security of a closed sash is ensured by special anti-burglary pins and strikers. They are made in such a way that it is impossible to get into the room through the window from the outside, since the trunnions complicate the process of removing the sash.
• Convenient ventilation.
  REZE fittings have a multi-stage ventilation function, which allows you to tilt the window sash to a convenient angle. Also, a special unit is designed in such a way that it allows you to leave the sash open even in strong winds.
• Durability.
  Galvanic protection protects the fittings from corrosion, which extends the service life of the product. In addition, the manufacturer provides a guarantee for the opening and closing process for more than 10 years.
• High functionality.
  The middle scissor lock has a detachable connection, which allows for quick assembly of the window without the use of special tools. If the sash sag when the window is closed, the microlift will ensure it is lifted. In addition, the scissors of the fittings are equipped with an element that prevents the handle from rotating in the folding position.
• Ease of installation.
  Plastic clips that snap into the window grooves ensure quick and easy installation of fittings. The docking locks, which snap firmly into place, can be easily removed using a regular screwdriver.
• Additionally, REZE can be equipped with the function of micro-ventilation and multi-stage ventilation, when it is possible to tilt the window not in one position, but to select the desired and comfortable angle for ventilation.

How do rotary doors work?

How do rotary doors work?

The rotor assembly consists of the following parts:

• A guide in which a groove is cut into the top of the door frame;
• A rotating element where there is a roller.

Together, these two units make it easy to open and close, rotation occurs around its own axis. The rotary mechanism for doors is original in that the door leaf does not sag under its own weight and is not deformed:

• The mechanism that is responsible for rotation and shift;
• Magnetic lock;
• Tape seal.

There are models in automatic and mechanical versions. The latter type has advantages, such rotary doors can be bought at a low price, automation is good because it can work without touching hands. Such mechanisms are difficult to install. Only competent specialists with experience will be able to professionally install such doors for you.

Accessories

Considering the fact that swing-and-turn doors open by simply pushing forward in either direction, the door leaf does not require special designs for door handles. In fact, you can do without them altogether. If you still want to have a structure equipped with handles, the ideal option for such a door is safe recesses that do not extend beyond the door leaf. Such handles are considered safe due to the minimal risk of injury during operation.

Also, such elements allow, during the process of opening the canvas, to position it as close as possible to the adjacent walls.

The simplest locking system can be based on the operation of ordinary magnets built into the end part and the box. If it is necessary to securely lock the doors, a mortise system is used in the form of a magnetic lock with a protruding push-type handle in the door leaf. The box is equipped with brush sealing elements.

Cost of ROTO MECHANISM

It is quite logical that their price will be higher than conventional doors, due to the mechanism. But convenience comes at a price. Prices for normal rotary doors are from 25,000 to 40,000 rubles. Yes, it's certainly a bit expensive. In addition, the cost of installation will be 30 percent higher than a sliding door, because the rotary door mechanism is more difficult to install.

ROTO fittings

Accessories for plastic windows from ROTO

known everywhere. The company originated in Germany, but now its factories are spread all over the world.

The advantages include:

• the ability to purchase the necessary products in any city in the country - accessories are very common;
• technical features lead to the fact that when closing, the load is evenly distributed throughout the entire mechanism, increasing reliability and ease of movement;
• ease of installation;
• wide palette of colors;
• the presence of decorative overlays on the handles;
• protection against premature wear;
• resistance to impacts.

Soundproofing

For easy movement of both sliding and rotating interior doors, it is necessary to leave a small gap around the entire perimeter of the door leaf. So, from the point of view of isolating odors and sounds, both are inferior to swing models.

Note: some foreign companies produce custom-made rotating doors of larger dimensions that can become a fragment of an interior partition. I note that similar systems only guarantee rotation of the blade (without moving sideways) and are not so convenient.

The situation can be partially corrected using mortise brush seals. Thanks to them, a design with non-standard opening and closing will allow you to “cut off” airborne noise - 20-25 dBA at medium frequencies (quiet conversation). Note: interior rotary doors will save space just like sliding doors and are as convenient for the owner as pendulum ones.

Difficulties during installation

A necessary condition for installing a rotary door is the correct geometry of the opening (even diagonals)

Roller suspension mechanisms have long been widely popular, and the features of their installation are well known to specialist installers. In principle, their installation is within the capabilities of every home builder who has his hands and head in the right place. The design allows you to make small mistakes when organizing the opening, but in the future it will need adjustment. A necessary condition for installation is the correct geometry of the opening (even diagonals).

But if you have never encountered the installation of doors, then it is better to entrust this task to an experienced specialist who has thoroughly comprehended all the intricacies of the rotation system.

Advantages and disadvantages of rotor structures

The roto-system has many undeniable advantages. The rotation mechanism is considered universal. It can be equipped with almost any canvas - wooden or glass, solid or complemented with a glass or mirror insert. The only “but” is that the swing-and-slide mechanism of interior doors is quite fragile, and therefore it is not recommended to install it on very heavy models made of hardwood.

Nevertheless, the system is able to please:

Among the disadvantages of a swing-and-slide door is the price, which, due to the complexity of the model’s design, exceeds average values. However, an owner who wants to add an unusual detail to the interior and save useful space is ready for such investments.

Which is the best door to install?

From the point of view of saving space, which one is better to install an interior door (by the way, read about installing a door with your own hands here)? Theoretically, a sliding door, but more often the planning decision indicates the choice of an interior rotary door. Although, of course, there are situations when there is so little space (say, it’s a tiny bathroom) when all that remains is to install an accordion door or a sliding door.
