Automatic Two-Panel Opening / Automatic Telescopic Opening — This refers to a side-opening automatic door configuration where two panels slide and stack to one side (telescopic motion). It requires less hoistway width because the doors stack on top of each other.
Click and drag to rotate the 3D model in full 360° space.
Both panels move in the same direction to one side, telescoping past each other.
Requires less hoistway width because the doors stack on top of each other.
Slightly slower perceived opening time; asymmetrical design.
Small shafts, residential elevators, or space-constrained areas.
A specialized multi-speed rope-and-pulley system links the two door panels, ensuring they reach the fully open position simultaneously.
