PIVOT by Neoporte
Phoenix, Arizona May 15th 2013 – Neoporte Modern Door® has introduced a new entry door system named PIVOT by Neoporte. PIVOT combines the best of design and performance in a modern, pivoting door system.

Derek Maczka, Director of Sales & Marketing, said “Pivoting door systems are at the forefront of contemporary architectural door and entry design. We’ve taken our classic Neoporte entry system and replaced the heavy-duty, side mounted hinges with pivoting hardware. The pivots are offset from the door edge and located in the top and bottom of the door, creating a unique and impressive swing path for the ultimate “wow factor”.”

PIVOT by Neoporte features:

• Single 1.0 and Double 2.0 swing configurations
• Optional sidelites and transom configurations
• Custom door leaf sizes from 42” to 57 ½” wide x 120” tall

Project Location: Scottsdale, Arizona
Architect: Michael Rust – Architect LLC
Home Builder: Gemini Development Corp
Square Footage: 4864 sq. ft enclosed air conditioned space
Date Completed: May 2012

This 4864 SF four-bedroom home is in balance with the environment and in-line with Frank Lloyd Wright’s concept of organic architecture. The well-insulated home is sited on a north/south axis, with broad overhangs on the north, east and west sides and larger overhangs and covered patios on the south. It is designed with 8″ solid grouted split-face concrete block around the entire exterior. Over 1300 glass blocks were used to give the effect of a continuous floating metal roof. Natural and diffused light from the glass blocks along the roofline combined with “solar tubes” bring in natural light to the interior space without the normal heat-gain of typical skylights. Inside the home, contemporary yet warm materials and appliances reaffirm modern Frank Lloyd Wright inspiration.

This home is also in balance with the needs and lifestyles of the clients. As the homeowners are getting older, all spaces are designed to exceed standard ADA accessibility requirements. And, the home is maintenance free with minimal areas that need cleaning and dusting. Because of health requirements, the kitchen area includes an adjacent space for an indoor growing room, where the couple grows a food supply of wheat grasses, sprouts and edible plants. The main living/entertaining area is designed with ample space to freely move two concert grand pianos for performances by the homeowner, a concert pianist. In addition, the homeowners are art collectors with an extensive collection of Middle Eastern art. Therefore large, open, 11′ high walls were designed in the great room to showcase large art pieces. Concealed, continuous LED strip lighting at the ceiling line gently provides a wash of light. Other low ceiling rooms in the house contain LED light fixtures in the ceiling to showcase the art at night.

As an item of interest, the front entry has a wall with approximately twenty-five ½” x 8″x 8″ glass inserts into the vertical joints of the split face block. This creates a random decorative lighting pattern in the interior of the home during the day and a decorative lighting element at the front door in the evening.

The entry door is a Racerback 2.0 double door system from Neoporte Modern Door®. The homeowners decided on an unequal pair of doors that features a wider than standard-width “active” door for normal day-to-day entry and exit and a narrower “inactive” door that can be opened when necessary to move large objects in and out of the home. While the Racerback door system is undeniably beautiful, the key factors in selecting an entry door system were performance related: energy efficiency, security, durability and low-maintenance. Having installed a Neoporte entry system on a previous home in Utah, the homeowners were familiar with Neoporte’s unparalleled quality and attention to detail including 2 ¼” door thickness, high-performance door insulation, an advanced weather seal system, commercial-grade stainless steel door skins and components, and heavy-duty, commercial-grade hardware.

Kessler’s first foray into online purchases involved ordering these front doors from a company in California called Neoporte

Not long ago, a Washington area homeowner looking for the airiness of a Noguchi lamp or the clean lines of European-style cabinetry would be forced to journey between the handful of modern furnishing stores scattered across the metropolitan region — or head to New York City. In what our children still regard as the summer from hell, my wife, Cindy, and I once spent weekend after weekend fruitlessly in search of new front doors that would bring a contemporary edge to our 1960s-era split-level home in McLean.

Now, thanks to the Internet, time-strapped contemporary lovers who feel trapped in the staid and traditional homes of the DMV can outfit their homes without ever leaving their couches.

Cindy and I stumbled into this discovery more out of desperation than design. But once we realized the vast array of goods available with a click of a mouse — including custom-made doors, flooring, lights and even fancy toilets, often at deep discounts — we were able to obtain a large chunk of the materials we needed for a recent expansion of our house.

. . . We had had luck with the Internet before; we had finally replaced our front doors after I discovered a company in California called Neoporte that made stainless steel doors with contemporary glass enclosures. Once we had crossed that Rubicon—ordering our front doors without ever seeing them in person— we were ready to try anything.
