Modern Performance Meets Industrial Elegance
Premier Door Co. recently completed the installation of a custom Zero Hinge Single Panel Hydraulic Door for a private residence in Birmingham, Alabama. This striking entry solution blends the raw, weathered aesthetic of Corten steel with the smooth durability of anodized aluminum—offering a bold architectural statement backed by rugged performance.
Architectural Door Design with Seamless Movement
This door features our exclusive Zero Hinge Collection pivot system, which eliminates traditional hinge mechanisms in favor of a top-mounted pivot block design. The result is a clean exterior profile with unobstructed operation. When opening, the door lifts effortlessly as one single panel using our Smart Door Technology hydraulic automation, offering one-touch open/close control, soft-start/stop ramping, and integration with home automation systems.
Exterior: Industrial Corten Patina
The exterior face of the door is clad in Corten weathering steel, chosen for its evolving texture and earthy rusted tone that matures naturally over time. The steel surface provides a rugged, low-maintenance facade that pairs perfectly with the industrial-modern architecture of the residence.
Interior: Brushed Anodized Aluminum Finish
The interior features a brushed anodized aluminum cladding, giving the door a bright, contemporary feel. This dual-surface design offers a unique contrast between warm, organic exterior elements and sleek interior materials.
