Traditionally if you want a door wider than 3’ your option is to use a double door (French door where both panels operate). This can be problematic for several reasons, including air infiltration, manual head and sill flush bolts that loosen over time, and loss of security since the doors lock together instead of in a secure jamb.

Tournerr doors work by placing most of the doors’ weight on a single pivot hinge mounted inside the bottom of the frame ( up to 250 kg).
