Facts Modern doors for an impressive pres-
tige object
The Motor-Nützel Group is represented at eight German
locations, where it sells the brands Audi, Porsche, Skoda,
Volkswagen Passenger Cars and Volkswagen Utility Vehic-
les. In the northern Bavarian city Hof a trend-setting auto-
motive center was built on a total area of 55,000 m², combi-
ning state-of-the-art showrooms and workshops, a modern
car body and paint center as well as a building for tire logis-
tics.

Customized solutions
The requirements for doors in such varied building areas
such as direct reception, test hall, workshop, car handover
and used cars pavilion are much diversified. Butzbach was
able to meet all the expectations with specially adapted
versions of its stacking door SPACELITE HT40: Three of the
doors are made of the Butzbach classic fibreglass material
in Brilliant colour, which provides a soft and glare-free but
very deep reaching room illumination due to its special sur-
face structure.
All other doors have been designed in the real glass versi-
on‘-‘the door panels consist of a high-quality insulation glass
with double tempered safety glass. In contrast to conven-
tional acrylic glass these real glass panels are permanently
protected against scratches and cleaning traces as well as
against fogging, condensation or dirt between the panes. In
addition to that, optical deformation with disturbing reflecti-
ons is avoided. An excellent thermal insulation value of Ug
= 1.1 W/m²K supports the concept of an energyefficient
building.
Three of the real glass doors (in the area of the car handover
of VW Passenger Cars) are designed in the new version wit-
hout vertical interspacers. These doors no longer remind of
a classic industrial door but create the visual impression of
a glazed curtain wall and thus contribute to a sophisticated
architectural solution.

Safe and long-lasting
For all doors the customer can rely on the special advan-
tages of the stacking door technology: Upon opening, the
door panels stack safely and compactly behind the lintel
and devices on the ceiling such as lighting fixtures or lifting
platforms are not impaired. The low-wear design of Butz-
bach stacking doors purposely avoids protruding hinges,
helix cables or springs susceptible to faults and thus redu-
ces maintenance work and contributes to the creation of an
economic building.
For our new automobile center we were looking for
door solutions which are equally representative and
reliable.
The space-saving and low-wear design of the Butzbach
stacking doors combined with the particularly highquality
visual appearance has convinced us.
