Telescopic Gate: Up to 30% More Clearance in the Same Footprint

How CETA's cantilever telescopic gate with two separately driven leaves delivers up to 30 % more clear opening on the same plot width.

Telescopic Gate: Up to 30% More Clearance in the Same Footprint

Classic cantilever sliding gates need lateral space to retract the full length into the yard. That space is often missing — on corner plots, in narrow industrial entrances, or where existing vegetation gets in the way. The CETA Telescopic Gate solves this with a clever piece of engineering: two separately driven leaves that telescope into each other as they open.

How it works

Where a single-leaf sliding gate needs its entire opening length as parking space, the telescopic gate splits that distance across two leaves. Both leaves move in sequence — the outer one first, then the inner — fitting into a much shorter stretch of fence. The result: up to 30 % more clear opening at the same plot width.

Typical applications

  • Narrow industrial entrances with heavy truck traffic
  • Private properties with limited side clearance
  • Yards where existing trees or walls must stay
  • Storage areas hemmed in by buildings on both sides

Made-to-measure in Austria

Every telescopic gate is built to order in our workshop in Fladnitz an der Teichalm — clear openings up to 8 m × 2 m, available with bar, perforated-sheet, or design infills. Optional combination with IntelliGate controls or solar operation.
