The McDonald’s restaurant in Teruel had a large outdoor dining area that could only be used on days when the climate was mild. They wanted to be able to offer this terrace to customers all year round. They needed to cover a very spacious area with a lot of height (4 metres), preserving the aesthetic of the premises and providing the possibility of an outdoor space.
In restaurants, the comfort of customers and the efficient use of hospitality space must be combined. To achieve this, Kauma created a closure system with Gravital 400. Without bottom tracks, it allows access for people with reduced mobility, as well as being maintenance-free, as there’s no floor track that needs to be kept clean, which is more difficult in a restaurant setting.
As the area to be protected was triangle-shaped, a unique oblique parking arrangement was devised to take advantage of the corners of the triangular angle. This minimal space requirement for the system translates into more square metres to accommodate customers. Furthermore, one of the panels is an access door to a completely outdoor children’s play area.
McDonald’s Alberto Alcocer now offers an open-air lounge by combining the Gravital 400 enclosure with a cellular polycarbonate retractable roof.
