Aluminum Lift Gate Platform for any Lift Gate

Aluminum?  Like aluminum foil?  No.  Well, yes.  An aluminum lift gate platform, rather than steel, is advantageous for many users.  Unlike steel platforms which can seem heavy at times, we can accessorize your lift gate with an aluminum platform to lighten the effort it takes to fold and unfold the platform.  Along with this added benefit, many enjoy the sleek look of silver shining on the back of their truck, trailer, or pickup truck, as they drive down the road.  Every manufacturer offers an aluminum lift gate option, so ask for a price quote when you order.

Another added benefit of reducing the platform weight is that it allows for more cargo to be transported on the truck or trailer.  For some companies this is a serious concern.  As the platform size increases the weight differential rises allowing for a solid consideration of whether or not to purchase aluminum.  Yet for the average company running at 80 to 90 percent capacity, comfort and style are driving factors for aluminum.

Rail Lift Gate – Is it right for your truck?

A rail lift gate is composed of two parallel rail columns which are placed on opposing sides of a truck or trailer.  These columns are usually welded onto the sides although a light duty lift gate can sometimes be bolted onto the back. The platform on the lift gate slides up and down the columns via chains or hydraulic cylinders.  When closed, the platform will collapse or fold against the back of the truck or trailer for easy storage.

The capacity of a rail lift gate ranges between 1,000 and 6,600 lbs.  This makes it a versatile gate to be used on the back of any truck, trailer, stake body, or pickup truck.  Many businesses which utilize rail gates include beverage, food, gas, tire, and liquid moving companies.  Our companies like these gates because of their high power along with ease of use.

Some rail lift gates are able to lower, and automatically adjust level with the ground. This is a great option for those who often find themselves unloading on uneven surfaces.

How will your business benefit by using a lift gate?

A lift gate can add great value to your business.  Lift gates provide a practical application to aid in the transportation of heavy or bulk freight.  Gates range in lifting capacity from 1,000 to 6,600 pounds allowing the high majority of shipments to be handled by these rugged machines.  With the ability for one man operation, a lift gate can reduce the need for multiple employees to be sent out on deliveries.  This allows you to use your business to create greater efficiency by limiting the number of needed employees and deploying the ones on hand effectively.

Using a lift gate on the back of your truck or trailer can also prevent the possibility of back, neck, or other common injuries produced by strain.  This is useful for companies with a diverse employee demographic, but still need results.

For those of you with employee “issues,” the last time a lift gate called in sick was… never.   Lift gates are very reliable.  They show up to work in the morning and do not stop until your business day is over.  And the best part is: you do not need to pay them benefits, over time, or provide severance packages!

If you believe that any of the above reasons apply to you and will make your business more profitable, please contact us today and we will get started on finding you the right lift gate for your truck, trailer, van, or pickup.
