There are also plans to build a new 4 star hotel. The shopping centre includes Ipercoop, a large hypermarket, where several Ditec BIS automatic doors were selected for the offices, whilst Ditec FLAP flexible swing doors were selected for internal departments and access doors between warehouses and sales departments.A further 44 Ditec BIS automatic sliding doors were installed at the entrances of underground car parks. BIS automatic doors, all TUV certified, are the most popular solution selected for large distribution shopping centres, an area where Ditec has already gained a wide experience. BIS automatic sliding doors brilliantly cope with all heavy traffic areas and are fitted with the very latest safety systems, capable of handling emergency situations. These doors are also Energy Saving as they allow power to be saved both during operation and when in stand-by mode. FLAP flexible swing doors are by far the most widely used doors to divide and to provide access between the loading areas and the warehouse thanks to their good value for money, sturdiness and safe operation. Ditec model boasts PVC flexible curtains reinforced in the highest contact and highest stressed points, and is available in the see-through, colour or in the special anti-abrasive rubber version. The uprights used to insert the curtains are monolithic metal structures (made of galvanised or stainless steel) with wings supported by ball operated mechanisms. FLAP doors are available in three styles: Standard, automation free, push to open; Contact, semi-automatic and operated by a piston which opens the doors in both directions by gently pushing the curtain; and Automatic, with full one-way automation by means of a radar or a remote control operated by two pneumatic pistons.
