Folding Driveway Gate

The CHG fold-away driveway gate has three panel style options. This bi-folding gate features thin, vertical pickets. This type of stacking gate can close a space up to 23 feet with a double gate and neatly stack away, out of the way. CHG-2-30S-H12(UC)

What makes this space-saving gate different from an accordion gate is that the panels flatten when the gate is closed, showing a modern panel design instead of accordion gears. This link shows the panel design options and other details.

This example shows a gate with casters and a steel guide track on the floor. This guide rail is not necessary, but it can help keep the gate in line when you close it.

A short space like this on the side of the house could also have been closed with a multi-panel folding gate. This is the type of gate that comes from the regular pedestrian gates, which usually have one or two panels but can be expanded to four panels capable of securing a space of about 13 feet. Here are the multi-panel folding gates. Check them out.

For comparison, here are the accordion gates from Japan.
