Winner of the FritsJurgens World Best Exterior Pivot Door for 2023

The FritsJurgens Best Pivot Door Contest is an annual competition that celebrates the pinnacle of pivot door design and functionality. It attracts entries from around the globe, showcasing the creativity and skill of carpenters and designers in the industry.

Hardwood Projects, led by Luke Wainman, emerged victorious in the exterior pivot door category, an achievement made even more remarkable considering the competition from over 130 submitted projects worldwide. This award underscores Hardwood Projects' position at the forefront of innovative and sustainable carpentry solutions.

• Custom Collaboration: The winning door is a bespoke creation, brought to life through a collaboration between Hardwood Projects and Details by Ned. From the steel plates and handle to the modified mortise lock, each component was meticulously crafted, excluding only the pivot mechanism itself.
  
• Superior Construction: The door's construction showcases the exceptional skills at Hardwood Projects. Featuring steel frames with recycled Mixed Australian Red Hardwoods, the door is insulated to combat the harsh climate of Canberra, ensuring durability and alignment over time.
• Innovative Design: Incorporating the FritsJurgens System M+ pivot, the door epitomises quality and innovation. Weighing 290kg and standing 3180mm tall by 1450mm wide, its massive stature required ten people for installation, reflecting the sheer scale and ambition of this project.
