Axor™ retractable seating system
Extend and retract
at the push of a button.
Our Axor™ Retractable Seating Systems give your sports centre, theatre, church or school the flexibility to maximise space and become a multipurpose venue.
Retractable or telescopic seating is a great way to make the most of your space. When closed, the system folds neatly into a small footprint, freeing up the majority of your floor space. An entire telescopic system can be opened in less than 30 minutes, transforming your space to provide large capacity tiered seating. We custom design and build our retractable systems, working closely with you to specify and install a system that suits the needs of your space.
Completely customisable.
We work with you to design an Axor retractable system that meets your specifications.
Our telescopic seating systems are highly customisable, from bleachers to fully upholstered padded stadium seats. From manually operated systems to fully automated, we will work closely with you to specify a system that meets your needs.

How we build your system
1. Consult
No Axor™ Retractable Seating System is built the same. And neither are our clients.
Enquire below, and we will be in touch to discuss the requirements of your space or venue to make sure all factors are considered; from existing architecture, number of seats required, accessibility, health & safety protocols and more.
2. Design & Build
We will ask for existing or proposed plans of your space and our engineers will design and specify a seating plan for your personalised Axor™ Retractable Seating System, and we will work with you to decide on a number of design features.
Once we have your stamp of approval, our manufacturing team will construct your telescopic seating system, and have the parts delivered to your venue, ready for installation.
3. Install
We are with you through the whole process, including installing your telescopic seating system into your space.
Our team has experience installing a number of Axor™ Retractable Seating Systems, from big to small, motorised to manual. We will efficiently install your system, working with you and your project managers to ensure things run smoothly.
4. Service & Maintenance
Upon completion of our installation or your project completion, we will conduct a final check and train your nominated personnel to properly and safely operate the system.
We take pride in our Axor™ Retractable Seating Systems, and want to ensure their smooth operation for years to come. We will arrange a maintenance plan with you on a 6 monthly basis, where we will perform vital checks of the system, and any needed maintenance.
Platform Options
Fixed
Fixed to a wall or floor, this platform option typically closes to a 1100mm deep unit against the wall, and expands out from that point. Recommended for large-scale systems, and is an option for any size system.
Recessed
Built into existing or planned architecture such as a recess or under a mezzanine. The system moves out from this space before expanding, and when closed, aligns flush with the wall creating a seamless finish.
Mobile
When saving space is the top-priority, this platform option allows the entire system to be moved to another location for storage. Mobile platforms are possible with small to medium sized systems.
Custom
If your space has specific requirements or unusual architecture, we can work with you to build a platform that works for you. Tapered platforms, semi-mobile, interlocking and more - we can make it happen.
