12/04/2010 | 60 brand new DITEC automatic doors. All entrances of the newly opened Auchan Porte di Catania shopping centre have been automated by Ditec

Another major contract won by DITEC has been completed in one of the largest shopping centres in Italy: the brand new Auchan shopping centre, recently opened in Catania.
Porte di Catania is the name of this new shopping centre developed over a huge area of 52,000 square metres; a big mall boasting an Auchan hypermarket, as well as 150 shops and a Decathlon outlet.
This is the site where DITEC, with the cooperation of its area dealer Di.Tec, run by Mr. Pino Contina, has installed as many as 40 Valor sliding pedestrian doors. This type of door has proved a highly reliable door and is already installed in many other large distribution outlets. “We have worked with DITEC since the brand came on the market and have installed it throughout Sicily both in residential and commercial buildings. Auchan contract is certainly one of the most significant due to its complexity and size, requiring over sixty doors to be automated. The success of this work order has been achieved thanks to the major contribution of our local partners (CARUSO, of AMATO Giuseppe, suppliers of pedestrian doors, and TL IMPIANTI, of TRIPOLI Lucio, suppliers of roll up doors and sectional overhead doors, and NICOGLOBAL SRL, suppliers of automatic barriers) which have professionally installed and commissioned all entrances in record time.
The customer was very pleased with the result and we are very proud of our achievement,” said Mr. Contina.

Sixty automatic doors which operate almost all pedestrian entrances in the shopping centre – from the ground floor doors to the entrances leading to underground car parks, to the terraced areas, to Decathlon outlet doors.
DITEC Valor automatic pedestrian doors, all TÜV certified, are unique not only thanks to the wide range of models offered, to the efficient remotely controlled monitoring system (DMSC) they are fitted with, but also to the large number of additional devices, which make them highly reliable and safe, especially in high traffic areas.

However, despite their large number, Valor automatic pedestrian doors are not the only doors installed by DITEC!
DITEC has also supplied and installed, with the cooperation of Di.Tec, of Mr. Contina, and of its partners, ten Smart high speed roll up industrial doors used for goods handling and people access inside and outside the shopping centre.
Smart are sturdy flexible roll up doors, easy to install and to maintain or even repair.

Ten more industrial sectional doors have also been installed for goods loading and unloading, as well as four Qik automatic barriers fitted to control access to the car parking areas.

A very complex installation for Di.Tec dealership, but also a highly prestigious contract, which confirms once more the undisputed popularity of DITEC brand in the ever growing European large distribution industry.
A well deserved popularity, gained by DITEC thanks to its wide range of doors and efficient technical service offered, which ensure the client and every single user reliable and safe doors.
