Italian term
Anta tagliata
Italian to English
Tech/Engineering
Architecture
Industrial doors
E' un'anta (wing) tagliata a metà in modo che se deve uscire una persona non si necessita aprire tutta l'anta ma solo la parte inferiore, mentre la metà superiore rimane chiusa. E' come la porta pedonale ma meno cara in quanto bisogna solo tagliare l'anta già esistente. THANKS :) :) :)

cut half door
Non molto usata nei paesi anglosassoni per cui non mi sembra che esista un nome suo proprio.

: Stable door is the nearest in UK English that matches your description and people would understand what you mean. Personally I have not heaard the term Dutch door used over here....

I know stable door more, I'm not very familiar with Dutch doors either, but have seen them mentioned a bit in UK; perh. more of a US term

Comment: "Thank you very much, but for what I have understood the Dutch door is for doors opening in the upper part so I think it may get confusing for customers. Thanks anyway!"

Panic door
These cut doors are used in aircraft hangers and are called panic doors.

The door is cut into the large doors of an aircraft hanger. Since there is no direct translation, maybe using a literal translation with an explanation or translator's note would be more useful. Eg. Cut Door which allows a person to exit without opening the large door (such as a hanger door.) The term panic is used for hanger doors because a sudden emergency would require someone to exit quickly, ie panic.

smaller door cut into it
propongo parafrasi perché non mi convincono le altre risposte. Digitando "smaller door cut into" in google tra virgolette vedo che richiami molti siti in cui si descrive, appunto, una porta più piccola in una più grande per far passare una persona.
le altre alternative proposte (dutch door/stable door e half door)sono molto frequenti (almeno in USA), ma la parte che si apre è quella in alto così l'apertura funge da finestra. il tuo caso è opposto.
se poi qualcuno trovasse il termine perfetto...
