When space is limited but security, aesthetics, and automation are non-negotiable, Telescopic Automatic Sliding Gates emerge as the most intelligent solution. From compact residential driveways to high-traffic commercial entrances, these gates redefine how access control works in modern architecture.

At LMT Automations, we design and install advanced Telescopic Automatic Sliding Gates in Kerala, Bangalore, Chennai, and Hyderabad, delivering European-grade automation tailored for Indian conditions.

What is a Telescopic Automatic Sliding Gate?

A Telescopic Automatic Sliding Gate is a specialized sliding gate automation system made up of two or three overlapping gate leaves. Unlike conventional sliding gates that require long side space (back run), telescopic gates collapse into themselves, drastically reducing the space required for opening.

This makes them ideal for:

• Narrow plots
  
• Properties with compound wall limitations
  
• Commercial entrances with restricted side clearance
  

In simple terms: maximum clear opening with minimum available space.

How Does a Telescopic Gate Work?

The brilliance of a telescopic automatic sliding gate lies in its intelligent, synchronized movement system, designed to deliver maximum opening within minimal space.

A telescopic gate is built with two or three gate leaves mounted on parallel ground tracks. Unlike conventional sliding gates, these leaves are engineered to slide, fold, and overlap smoothly when the gate opens, dramatically reducing the total travel distance.

A gear motor is installed on the primary (main) leaf, which acts as the driving force of the entire system. The remaining leaves are interconnected using a precision-engineered cable pulling kit. When the motor is activated, the main leaf begins to slide, and through the cable system, the secondary and tertiary leaves are pulled into motion simultaneously.

To ensure quick operation without jerks or imbalance, the additional leaves are designed to move slightly faster than the first leaf, allowing them to overlap neatly and efficiently. This coordinated movement enables the gate to open wider in a shorter span of time, even where space is restricted.

For enhanced safety, accuracy, and long-term reliability, low-voltage heavy-duty sliding gate motors with encoders are used. These advanced motors allow precise speed control, smooth start and stop, obstacle detection, and controlled gate travel, making telescopic gates both powerful and safe for residential, commercial, and industrial applications.

Key Advantages of Telescopic Automatic Sliding Gates

1. Maximum Space Optimization

Perfect for sites where traditional sliding gates are impossible due to limited back run.

2. Wider Clear Opening

Achieve large entry widths even in tight spaces.

3. Faster Operation

Because multiple leaves move together, telescopic gates open significantly faster than single-leaf sliding gates.

4. No Internal Space Loss

The gate does not intrude into internal driveways or landscapes.

5. Ideal for Automation

Designed specifically to work flawlessly with automated motors and smart access systems.

Telescopic Sliding Gate vs Conventional Sliding Gate

A telescopic sliding gate and a conventional sliding gate differ primarily in how they use space and operate. A telescopic sliding gate is designed with two or three overlapping leaves that move in a synchronized manner, allowing the gate to open fully while requiring significantly less side clearance. This makes it an ideal solution for properties where back run space is limited, such as urban homes, commercial buildings, and industrial sites. In contrast, a conventional sliding gate consists of a single long leaf that slides along the compound wall, demanding a clear side space equal to the full width of the gate opening.

In terms of performance, telescopic sliding gates offer faster operation because multiple leaves move together, reducing the overall travel distance and opening time. They also make better use of available space, as the gate does not intrude into internal driveways, parking areas, or landscaped zones. Conventional sliding gates, while mechanically simpler and generally more economical, operate at a slower pace and are best suited for properties with ample side space. Overall, telescopic sliding gates represent a more advanced, space-efficient, and modern automation solution, whereas conventional sliding gates remain a practical choice where space constraints are not a concern.
