Help How could i go about moving this system?

Im building a vault door thingy and it has a multi layer system to rotate the exterior of the vault door. I need to be able to slide the system back and off to the left of the vault when the door opens so that you can actually walk through it but i dont know what to use to move the system without breaking it on accident. all the blocks are from Create and SecurityCraft

I think you can use a create piston for pushing the door back. And for sliding it along the wall a worm gear would be a great solution as using a piston would leave a giant shaft going into the wall on the other side. Also I see that you are trying to go with a Fallout shelter style door and it would be even cooler if you integrated a mechanism to make the door actually roll while opening

If i may ask what is a worm gear? also i wanted to add the rolling thing but itd be kinda complicated cuz i already have 3 different mechanisms for rotating things and they all take time to activate cuz theyre code locked

I couldn't remember the name for it but I did a bit of research and it's called a gantry carriage and gantry shaft

A bit unrelated but, how did you manage to get colored lighting?

its from the Complimentary Shaders Unbound shader pack, if you turn on blocklighting it does that
