Short side run-back
Multiple panels stack as the gate opens, making telescopic gates useful where a standard sliding gate would need too much side room.
Telescopic gates Sydney
Telescopic sliding gates for wide openings with limited side room
Rapid designs, installs, automates, repairs, and maintains telescopic gates for driveways, strata entries, car parks, warehouses, and commercial sites. We recommend telescopic systems when the opening needs to be wide but the available run-back space is too short for a standard sliding gate.
Best fit
Use telescopic gates when the opening is bigger than the side room
Telescopic gates suit wide openings with limited run-back space, helping entries open efficiently where a single sliding leaf would need too much side room.
Wide clear openings
Good for driveways, loading areas, strata entries, and commercial sites that need a wider opening than the available boundary space suggests.
Premium constrained sites
A practical option when the gate still needs to look clean, operate smoothly, and integrate with intercoms, remotes, and access control.
