Millersville, MD - The new VISUR double-acting pivot system from DORMA Glas ( www.dorma-usa.com ) enables the installation of all-glass double acting doors without any visible fittings. All of the hardware components for both single- and double- door configurations are completely concealed in the surrounding structures of the door panel, making it an ideal choice for modern commercial office applications. Because of its unobtrusive appearance, the VISUR system gives architects freedom to create unique designs without the concern of conflicting door hardware.

The VISUR system includes a header tube, and top and bottom pivots. VISUR is available for a glass thickness between 3/8" (10 mm) and 1/2" (12 mm), a maximum door panel weight of 187 lbs., and a maximum door panel height of 98-7/16".

DORMA VISUR is paired with the DORMA RTS88 concealed overhead door closer to operate the closing function invisibly. RTS88 closer models meet interior barrier-free demands on 3'-0" wide center-hung single or double-acting doors and conform to ANSI A156.4 requirements.

VISUR is available in aluminum with a satin stainless steel look and aluminum clear anodized finishes.
VISUR products are not only stylish, but durable. Endurance tests have subjected the VISUR double-acting pivot system to 500,000 operating cycles, proving that the system will stand up to demanding traffic over time. DORMA offers an industry-best 10-year warranty on the RTS88 closer, five times the typical industry standard for overhead concealed closers.
