Precision Lift. Level Ride. Expert Mobile Support for Your Cantilever Gate.
Cantilever liftgates offer one of the most stable and versatile loading platforms in the industry. Known for their level-ride function, tilt control, and seamless dock alignment, these gates are ideal for cargo that demands balance, care, and precision.
At Liftgate Repair & Service, we provide on-site mobile service, inspection, and repairs for all cantilever-style liftgates across San Diego County. Whether you’re running refrigerated trucks, fragile goods, or specialty deliveries—we keep your liftgate safe, smooth, and fully functional.
What Is a Cantilever Liftgate?
A cantilever liftgate uses twin parallel arms to keep the platform level while raising or lowering, even with heavy or awkward loads. Many models also offer tilt adjustments for perfect dock alignment or easier rolling loads on inclines.
Key Features:
- Level platform throughout movement
- Adjustable tilt angles for loading control
- Ideal for fragile, bulky, or palletized cargo
- Safer for transporting carts, racks, and wheeled bins
