A tailgate is simply the rear door or panel of a vehicle, such as the back of a pickup, and is not designed to lift loads. A liftgate is a hydraulic or electrohydraulic platform installed at the rear of a truck or trailer to lift pallets and lower merchandise, reducing the risk of handling injuries. The two terms are often used interchangeably, so our team always confirms what you need. Read our article liftgate vs tailgate: what’s the difference.

CANVEC sells and installs liftgates for trucks, trailers, pickups, dump bodies and cargo vans, including service body, stake bed, tractor, van and flatbed configurations. Available styles include tuck-away, railgate, slider and cantilever, for small, medium or heavy loads. Because every vehicle is different, there is no standard liftgate: the vehicle, the actual load and the delivery environment all matter. Our guide on how to choose the right liftgate for your truck explains the key criteria.
