Seamless Elegance, Compact Power: The Concealed Self-Closing Pivot Hinge
Transform interior spaces with effortless, self-closing motion for doors up to 100kg—without disturbing underfloor heating.
Rethinking Standard-to-Medium Weight Interior Doors
Pivot doors make a sleek, contemporary architectural statement. However, traditional pivot hardware often presents frustrating compromises: unsightly, bulky floor boxes, destructive slab cutouts, or doors that bounce and fail to sit flush with the wall over time.
Enter the Arlu® (Argenta) Pivotica Pro 100 FM F0.
Engineered in Europe, this concealed self-closing pivot hinge system provides architects, builders, and interior designers total creative freedom. Supporting interior doors weighing up to 100kg, the hardware stays completely hidden when closed. The result? Clean, uninterrupted wall lines and smooth, controlled motion with every push.
What Does the “FM F0” Configuration Mean?
- FM (Floor Mounted): Uses a surface-mounted footplate with minimal drilling depth, making it 100% safe for floors with underfloor heating.
- F0 (Free Swing): Opens up to 150° in both directions and automatically glides back to a flush 0° closed position—keeping doors neatly shut without a 90° hold-open catch.

Selection Guide: FM vs. BI & F0 vs. F90
Ensure you specify the correct model variant for your project:
- F0 (Free Swing) vs. F90 (Hold Open): F0 (This Product): Always self-closes to 0°. Ideal for utility rooms, ensuite entries, or feature doors where you want the door to stay closed when not in active use.
F90: Includes a mechanical hold-open catch at +90° and -90°. - FM (Floor Mounted) vs. BI (Built-In): FM (This Product): Installs directly on top of finished floors with a 13mm bottom gap. Ideal for retrofits, timber floors, or slabs containing underfloor heating.
BI: Embedded into subfloors prior to finishing for a tighter 5-11mm bottom clearance.
