A lift gate is a hydraulic or electric platform attached to the rear of a truck or trailer, designed to simplify the process of loading and unloading cargo between the ground and the truck bed. It serves as a bridge between ground level and the vehicle’s tailgate, making it easier to move heavy items without the need for a loading dock. Lift gates are especially useful in locations without dock access, such as residential areas, to facilitate deliveries.
