What are Telescopic Gates
Telescopic gates are commonly used in situations where the size of the driveway opening exceeds the space available for the gates to retract or open into. To effectively secure the entire area, sectional panels are used, which smoothly slide in front and behind one another, enabling the gate to open within a smaller space than its full opening length. To accomplish this, a telescopic system is built into the gate panels, The telescopic system attaches all the gates in a sequence, and they are operated from the rear gate, which is mechanically driven by a motor.
Can telescopic gates work on an angled or sloped driveway?
The simple answer is YES ABSOLUTELY they can. In fact, 80% of our gates are custom-made to suit angled driveways both across and also up and down directions. We custom fabricate the gates to suit the area, style and design.
How much do telescopic gates cost?
Telescopic Gates can range in price depending on the complexity and length of the gate, to the design of the gate. It’s hard to put a price on it as the variances are vast but as a ballpark figure you could expect to spend somewhere between the amount of $7500k - $20000k
What’s the process and how long does it take…?
It all starts with gate design. Knowing the design, you want is the very first step this is the most important step! After that, you leave it in our hands. We attend the site and measure the entire area with dumpy level and laser. We then take all that information and put it into our CAD software and design your gate. Once it all looks good, we send the drawing over to you so you can see the design you have chosen before we start fabrication. If there is anything needing changing this is the opportunity. When they are approved, we then get underway fabricating, powder coating and then schedule your installation. You will be notified at each process so you know where your job is at. As an estimate, the process from start to finish generally takes 4-6 weeks from when deposit is paid and drawings approved.
