A telescoping frame system comprising a non-telescoping frame with a longitudinal side, first and second attachment arms; a main arm that is parallel to the longitudinal side of the non-telescoping frame; a first pivot arm with a top surface that acts as a rail for a first roller wheel; a second pivot arm with a top surface that acts as a rail for a second roller wheel; and first and second brace arms that maintain each pivot arm at a ninety-degree angle to the longitudinal side of the non-telescoping frame when the first pivot arm is fully extended. The first and second pivot arms are pivotally attached to the first and second attachment arms, respectively. The first roller wheel is pivotally attached to a first end of the main arm, and the second roller wheel is pivotally attached to a second end of the main arm.

1. A telescoping frame system comprising: (a) a non-telescoping frame comprising a longitudinal side, a first attachment arm and a second attachment arm;(b) a main arm that is parallel to the longitudinal side of the non-telescoping frame;(c) a first pivot arm with a top surface that acts as a rail
1. A telescoping frame system comprising: (a) a non-telescoping frame comprising a longitudinal side, a first attachment arm and a second attachment arm;(b) a main arm that is parallel to the longitudinal side of the non-telescoping frame;(c) a first pivot arm with a top surface that acts as a rail for a first roller wheel;(d) a second pivot arm with a top surface that acts as a rail for a second roller wheel;(e) a first brace arm that maintains the first pivot arm at a ninety-degree angle to the longitudinal side of the non-telescoping frame when the first pivot arm is fully extended; and(f) a second brace arm that maintains the second pivot arm at a ninety-degree angle to the longitudinal side of the non-telescoping frame when the second pivot arm is fully extended;wherein the first pivot arm is pivotally attached to the first attachment arm, and the second pivot arm is pivotally attached to the second attachment arm;wherein the first roller wheel is pivotally attached to a first end of the main arm, and the second roller wheel is pivotally attached to a second end of the main arm;wherein when the roller wheels are moved toward the longitudinal side of the non-telescoping frame, the main arm is also moved toward the longitudinal side of the non-telescoping frame and remains parallel to the longitudinal side of the non-telescoping frame; andwherein when the main arm has been moved so that it is adjacent to the longitudinal side of the non-telescoping frame, the brace arms are removed to allow the pivot arms to pivot, and the pivot arms are pivoted inward and secured to a center bracket on the main arm. 2. The telescoping frame system of claim 1, wherein the non-telescoping frame comprises a rectangular perimeter frame, one or more forklift pockets, one or more longitudinal skids, and a cable tray. 3. The telescoping frame system of claim 1, wherein the non-telescoping frame comprises a first lateral end and a second lateral end, wherein the first attachment arm is perpendicular to the longitudinal side of the non-telescoping frame, wherein the second attachment arm is perpendicular to the longitudinal side of the non-telescoping frame and situated a second distance inside of the second lateral end of the non-telescoping frame, and wherein the first distance is roughly equal to the second distance. 4. The telescoping frame system of claim 1, further comprising an actuator that extends laterally through the non-telescoping frame, the actuator having a first end and a second end, wherein the first end of the actuator is secured to the center bracket, and the second end of the actuator is connected to a motor. 5. The telescoping frame system of claim 1, wherein the first and second pivot arms each comprises a distal end, and wherein the distal end of each pivot arm comprises an upwardly extending stop that prevents the roller wheel from traveling off the distal end of the pivot arm. 6. The telescoping frame system of claim 1, wherein the main arm further comprises a saddle bracket for installing a structure on top of the main arm. 7. The telescoping frame system of claim 1, wherein each of the first and second brace arms comprises a first extension on a first end of the brace arm, a second extension in roughly the center of the brace arm, and a third extension on a second end of the brace arm, the first pivot arm having an inside surface and a center, the telescoping frame system further comprising a first receptacle secured to the inside surface of the first pivot arm at roughly the center of the first pivot arm, the second pivot arm having an inside surface and a center, and the telescoping frame system further comprising a second receptacle secured to the inside surface of the second pivot arm at roughly the center of the second pivot arm; the longitudinal side of the non-telescoping frame having an outside edge, a center, a first end and a second end, the telescoping frame system further comprising a third receptacle secured to the outside edge of the longitudinal side of the non-telescoping frame between the center of the longitudinal edge and a first end of the longitudinal side and a fourth receptacle secured to the outside edge of the longitudinal side of the non-telescoping frame between the center of the longitudinal side and a second end of the longitudinal side;wherein each of the first, second, third and fourth receptacles is configured to accept one of the first, second and third extensions of the first and second brace arms. 8. The telescoping frame system of claim 1, the pivot arm has a vertical position relative to the attachment arm, and the vertical position of the pivot arm relative to the attachment arm is adjustable. 9. The telescoping frame system of claim 1, further comprising a power actuation system for moving the main arm toward and away from the longitudinal side of the non-telescoping frame. 10. The telescoping frame system of claim 1, further comprising a manual actuation system for moving the main arm toward and away from the longitudinal side of the non-telescoping frame.
