In one of the most beautiful Italian squares, in the Grand Hotel Duchi, a historic building in Trieste

The world still has very famous historic hotels which still maintain the charm and atmosphere of times gone by, when royals, aristocrats, artists and other celebrities in the world of politics, culture, science, entertainment used to walk over the red carpets laid for them.

One of these examples is without doubt the Gran Hotel Duchi of Trieste, which overlooks one of the most beautiful Italian squares, the Piazza Unità d'Italia in Trieste.
A huge number of celebrities have stayed in the belle Epoque atmosphere of this large hotel.
Some of the latest celebrities include Noor queen of Jordan, Nobel price winner Rita Levi Montalcini, Sting, Claudio Abbado, Francis Ford Coppola, Eduardo De Filippo.
In the stunning setting of this hotel building, which dates back to 1872, we find ‘Harry’s Grill, the hotel restaurant, designed by the famous Arrigo Cipriani, who also managed the more renowned Harry’s Bar in Venice.
The restaurant, one of the most exclusive establishments in Trieste, still has the charm and atmosphere of the furnishings found in the Venetian bar; likewise, Harry's Bar in the hotel has been fitted with an identical copy of the famous bar.

The doors connecting the small entrance to the main lounge, crossed by the distinguished and international clients of Harry's Grill, have recently be fitted with one of the most innovative Ditec curved automatic sliding doors, the Volo model.
In addition to its smart look, Volo boasts a quiet operation, a smooth opening action and the interesting feature of being able to better match any architectural frontage project.
The automation is very compact, with a thickness of just 10cm.
The door fitted at Harry’s Grill is very large, with wings reaching almost three metres in height and perfectly blends in with the somewhat retrò look of the restaurant, as well as with the sober elegance of a refined and discreet environment, which requires top quality products to be selected, even highly technological products, such as those offered by Ditec, and that, above all, these products are discreetly integrated in the architectural features and the ambience of the establishment they are fitted to.
