The Telescopic High Speed Rigid Door uses rigid panels that telescope (slide and nest) rather than spiral or roll, so it delivers a hard, secure curtain where headroom is too tight for a spiral track. It suits openings that need a rigid, insulated leaf but cannot accommodate the overhead radius of a spiral door.
As a rigid-panel design it behaves like other spiral / rigid high speed doors, which typically run about 0.6-1.0 m/s (industry synthesis). RAX builds the panel set, telescopic guides and drive to your opening and confirms travel speed, sealing and wind class per project rather than publishing generic figures.
As a pure manufacturer, RAX makes each telescopic rigid door to your exact opening and RAL color – from prototype to container-load delivery order – with wiring diagrams and English manuals for your local installers.
Sources & honesty: RAX-company facts on this page (materials, 100,000-cycle fatigue testing, certifications held, warranty, lead time) are from RAX Door Technology’s approved brand brief. Industry benchmark figures (typical opening speeds, cycle-life ranges, EN 12424 wind classes, ISO 14644-1 cleanroom classes, competitor reference points) are drawn from our sourced category research (research/high-speed-doors.md) and are marked as industry-typical or attributed to the named manufacturer. RAX’s own measured speed, U-value, wind-class certificate and cleanroom class are confirmed per project by test – we do not publish them as generic figures. Fire resistance (EN 1634-1) and ATEX suitability are project-specific capabilities, not blanket certificates.
Telescoping panels give a hard, secure curtain without the overhead radius a spiral track requires.
Aluminum alloy 6063-T5 panels (RAX); insulated double-skin option with polyurethane core for thermal performance (U-value per project).
Closed-loop servo or VFD – both manufactured in-house by RAX for precise control of a rigid curtain.
Telescopic guides, panels and drive validated against RAX’s 100,000-cycle fatigue protocol; servo motor backed by a 5-year warranty.

Provide clear opening width x height, headroom and side room – or site photos. We produce the confirmation drawing and confirm the feasible span against wind class.
Cycles per day, operating temperature range, wind exposure, and clean / cold / washdown / hazardous-area duty.
Target speed, thermal (U-value), wind (EN 12424), fire (EN 1634-1), acoustic or cleanroom class – we match the applicable standard and confirm by test.
Servo or VFD drive, sensing (radar / geomagnetic / light-curtain), safety edges and any safety-interlock or smart (WiFi/RS485) control needs.
Where ceiling space is too tight for a spiral track but a rigid, secure door is still required.
Weather-tight, thermally efficient rigid leaves for conditioned buildings.
Hard-panel security with faster cycling than a sectional door.
Upgrading slow sectional doors where headroom constraints rule out a spiral door.
RAX supports full private-label production of the Telescopic High Speed Rigid Door: custom RAL panel colors, operator matching, packaging printing and installation-manual translation (EN/ES/FR/AR/RU). Start with an OEM sample and scale to container-load branded production. Custom molds, Tooling records are archived for up to 5 years — no extra tooling fee on repeat orders, all under strict NDA.
Product standard for industrial, commercial and garage doors – the harmonized basis for CE marking. Covers mechanical and power-operated safety, wind-pressure and water-penetration resistance, thermal (U-value) and air-permeability performance, with technical documentation retained 10 years.
Safety in use of power-operated doors – operating-force limits and entrapment protection, and the test methods behind our operator safety data.
Wind-load resistance classification (Class 0-5) and the test method for doors. Class 0 denotes no declared wind performance; Class 5 (‘Exceptional’, above 1000 Pa) is set by special maker-buyer agreement.
Fire-resistance test method for door and shutter assemblies. RAX can engineer fire-rated curtains/panels (EI60/EI120) and arrange EN 1634-1 testing per project – a project-specific capability, not a blanket held certificate.
Any opening size within the High Speed Doors range – large industrial doors from prototype to container-load, full flexibility on order quantity. Share your opening width x height (or site photos) and our engineers confirm the feasible span, wind class and drive sizing, then produce technical drawings.
As a rigid-panel door it behaves like other spiral / rigid high speed doors, which typically open around 0.6-1.0 m/s (industry synthesis). The telescopic action is chosen for low headroom rather than for extra speed. RAX confirms the travel speed and panel build for your opening in the quotation.
Both use rigid panels, but a spiral door needs overhead radius for its spiral track while a telescopic door nests its panels in a flatter arrangement – so the telescopic version fits openings with limited headroom. If you have the headroom, a spiral door is often the faster, more compact choice. Share your opening dimensions and headroom and our engineers will recommend the right configuration.
We are a pure manufacturer and do not provide on-site installation. Every order ships with an English installation manual, wiring diagrams for your local installation team; operators are pre-set and tested before dispatch.
RAX holds ISO 9001:2015 and CE to EN 13241 (industrial door) and EN 12453 (operator safety), with SGS material reports and product liability insurance. Fire resistance (EI60/EI120) and an EN 12424 wind-load class are project-specific capabilities we test and certify per order against the matching standard – we do not overclaim a blanket rating.
Yes. RAL panel colors, operator matching, packaging printing and manual translation (EN/ES/FR/AR/RU) are all supported, from an OEM sample to container-load branded production, under strict NDA.
