Compact, Convenient & Ready for Service—We Keep Your Tuk-A-Way Liftgate Working Right
Tuk-A-Way liftgates are one of the most popular liftgate styles in North America. Designed to fold and store neatly beneath the truck bed, these gates offer unmatched versatility, allowing for full rear-door access when not in use. Whether you run box trucks, cube vans, or delivery vehicles, your Tuk-A-Way gate works hard—and so do we to keep it that way.
At Liftgate Repair & Service, we specialize in mobile repair, inspection, and maintenance for all brands and models of Tuk-A-Way liftgates throughout San Diego County. We come to you—fast—and fix it right the first time.
What Is a Tuk-A-Way Liftgate?
A Tuk-A-Way liftgate (also called a “fold-under” or “flip-away” liftgate) is a hydraulic gate that folds in half and stows under the truck when not in use. To deploy, the gate is pulled out and unfolded manually or hydraulically, then raised and lowered for loading.
Key Advantages:
- Frees up access to rear doors
- Ideal for dock-height loading and urban routes
- Less exposed to road debris or weather when stowed
- Lightweight designs available in aluminum or steel
Common Applications
Tuk-A-Way gates are perfect for:
- Final-mile and parcel delivery
- Foodservice and grocery fleets
- General freight and LTL carriers
- Moving and storage trucks
- Retail distribution
