Heavy Duty Telescopic Gates Hardware Kit
This is a complete telescopic sliding gate hardware installation kit with all the parts required for a 6m telescopic sliding gate with Cladding.
Example of Telescopic Sliding Gate Leaf Size Calculation: If the driveway opening is 6000mm, then 2 x 3350mm gates leaf for telescopic gate systems, (2x3000mm + add 350mm on each leaf) The formula for telescopic sliding gate calculation is: Driveway opening size divided into 2 then add 350mm for each leaf.
This kit is suitable for 6m telescopic sliding gates with uneven surfaces for example gates with pickets or colourbond on the face of the gate and regular gates.
High quality galvanised compact yet very strong conversion kits with heavy-duty stainless steel 4mm cable, and this kit is complete and ready to install for 6m telescopic sliding gates. See kit contents above.
What is a Telescopic Gate:
Traditionally a 6m sliding gate requires another 6m of space away from the driveway opening for the gate to slide into.
The telescopic systems will almost halve this space required for the gate to slide into, this is because the telescopic systems enable the second gate to be pulled by the first gate once the first gate starts to move.
Telescopic Sliding Gate Leaf Size Calculation: The formula is: Driveway opening size divided into 2 then add 350mm for each leaf.
Example: if the driveway opening is 6000mm, then 2 x 3.35m gates (2x3000mm + add 350mm on each leaf)

Key Features of Telescopic Gate:
Undermounted below gate (using flat-mount wheels) or face-mounted to the gate (using flat-mount or recess mount wheels)
Sealed bearings not bushings
Three cable tensioning points to allow an easier installation (other suppliers only one tensioning point)
Adjustable bracketing provides for the use of recess mount or flat mounted wheels
Low profile system (does not protrude above bottom section of the gate using 80x40 or greater)
