Däckcenter lets the light in with new fully glazed doors
Däckcenter in Anderstorp was founded in 1970 by Anders Åstmar, but has been owned by his son Henrik since 2007. They currently have three employees. At Däckcenter they also have a tyre hotel which currently stores tyres for some 900 cars. The premises were built in 1982, with doors from EAB, two manual inward opening folding doors with sheet plate cladding. The installed doors were unusually large for the time, 3.6 metres wide and approximately 5 metres high. Today, they have proved to be the perfect dimensions to also be able to drive in modern lorries, which are considerably higher than those back in the 80’s.
“My first thought was to change to the same doors that we had earlier, but with an electric drive. But after having looked at your website and having discovered fully glazed doors that also had automation the choice was simple. The fact that we chose doors with so much light transmission has really changed the environment inside the premises as things have become much brighter and more pleasant. We also chose solar control glass to limit the heat transmission, which can otherwise occur with so much glass. The fact that the doors are quick to open and close and that you can control both with the same remote control is also brilliant!”
A MATTER OF COURSE
At EAB, durability is important. The fact that EAB’s doors last is something we stand behind, which Henrik Åstmar at Däckcenter also confirms.
Their existing doors were installed in 1982 and have worked in wind and rain since then. The reason why Henrik chose to update his building with new EAB doors was because he wanted automated doors instead of manual. There was no doubt in his mind that the new doors would come from EAB.
”The old doors have worked here since 1982 and still work just as well, so it was self-evident that it would be EAB doors this time too.”

Recycling with EAB
”As our old doors still functioned just fine despite being well used, I put them up for sale on the internet.” It barely took a week until the doors were with their new owner in Sundsvall. So EAB lasting is something I can certainly attest to!,” explains Henrik.
