Production is set to begin on the new Tommy Gate Cantilever Series, a hydraulic lift designed specifically for commercial panel vans, including the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, Nissan NV, and the Chevy Express.

In development for over two years, Tommy Gate said the lift features:

  • Bolt-on installation that eliminates welding
  • Large aluminum platform that is corrosion-resistant and pallet-jack compatible
  • Lift controls strategically placed to ensure operator safety.

Additional features include a laterally-folding platform that allows access to the rear of the vehicle when not in use as well as standard cart stops and internal bridge mounts to make the lift “cart-friendly.”

The unit will be produced at Tommy Gate’s Woodbine, IA, manufacturing plant.
