Motorised Retractable Gates
Compact-opening perimeter gates for wide vehicle entrances.
Every day of the year support for selection, commissioning, operation and service
What this system does
A configuration for the real operating conditions.
Retractable gates fold or telescope back into a smaller parking area than a single rigid sliding leaf. They suit large driveways where run-back space is constrained. We review the ground track, drainage, wind exposure, opening width and manual release before recommending a configuration.
TekRabbits reviews the site and recommends a system with the necessary controls, protection and manual procedures. Final capacities, options and interfaces are confirmed in the quotation for your installation.
Available configurations

Compact stowage, wide opening
The ground route and drive need equal attention.
A retractable gate relies on its guided sections to travel smoothly and fold into the available parking space. Civil conditions and manual access matter as much as the motor.
Specification guide
What we check before recommending a system.
The questions below shape capacity, installation effort, controls and safety. A short site survey or clear photographs and dimensions can resolve many of them before the quotation.
- Measure full opening and available parked-gate space.
- Check pavement, track line and drainage.
- Specify obstacle detection and power-fail operation.
From width to working gate
A retractable system starts with the route.
Map the opening and storage
Measure the full vehicle opening, the ground route and the space where sections will gather when open.
Prepare the travel path
Review pavement level, track fixing, drainage, wind exposure and buried services before choosing the gate assembly.
Commission safe travel
Verify end positions, straight movement, obstacle response, operator controls and manual release on the installed gate.
Keep the route clear
Maintain guides, wheels, cables and sensors so daily operation remains predictable through the year.
TekRabbits support
Every day of the year. The whole system.
Our support covers product selection, installation coordination, commissioning, user guidance, maintenance planning, spare parts and fault diagnosis. We agree any project-specific response and service terms before deployment.

Motorised Retractable Gates: common questions
Specific answers about configurations, site preparation, safety and support for motorised retractable gates.
Ask about your siteWhat configurations of motorised retractable gates are available?
The TekRabbits range covers Motorised retractable gate. We narrow the choice using the site conditions and confirm the exact capacity and options in the proposal.
What does Motorised retractable gate do?
A powered, multi-section gate that extends across a broad opening and retracts compactly when open. The final arrangement depends on the site's layout and operating procedure.
What measurements are needed before choosing motorised retractable gates?
Measure full opening and available parked-gate space. Measurements let us check capacity and fit instead of guessing from a product name.
Which operating conditions affect the recommendation?
Check pavement, track line and drainage. Tell us about peak use and any unusual environment so the equipment and controls fit daily operation.
What should be planned for safety and abnormal operation?
Specify obstacle detection and power-fail operation. We agree the protective devices and manual procedure for the installed configuration before commissioning.
Can this system connect to other controls?
Remote controls, switches, RFID or other access systems can trigger compatible gate controllers. We confirm the interface and safety interlocks before quotation.
Can this be added to an existing site?
Often, but gate movement must be smooth first. We check hinges or track, rollers, posts, foundations and clearances before adding an operator.
What maintenance should the system receive?
Check gate travel, rollers or hinges, drive and rack, limit devices, safety photocells and manual release at an interval matched to daily cycles.
Does support every day of the year end after the first year?
No. “Every day of the year” describes when the TekRabbits support route is available, rather than a one-year after-sales term. On-site attendance, parts and response targets are set in the project agreement.
How do I request a recommendation for motorised retractable gates?
Use the Automation Services enquiry page. Share site location, dimensions, expected use, existing equipment and your preferred timeline. The selected product family is carried into the form.
Ready to specify motorised retractable gates?
