Explanation:
cancelleti is a typo for cancelletti. See http://www.dibiporteblindate.it/eng/idxprod.htm I've only found "extending grilles" on sites translated from the Italian, so I think I can improve on that!

'Retractable security grilles' is a term used by UK companies for the same thing.

Sorry, the first site above is for \"sliding security grilles\", which I decided not to offer as it got far fewer hits than \"retractable security grilles\" on google.

neutral  Jane Griffiths (X): Vittorio, I looked at the photos and think pantograph gates are something specific to trains - one at each end of a railway carriage. The pantograph connects the train to overhead wires, and I guess the pantograph gates are for preventing access to them.
