Tommy Gate Liftgate Surfaces
Steel

Tommy Gate uses Treadplate Steel (TP) as the standard surface for steel liftgates. A Torsion Bar (Closure-Assist) is built into the 2-piece platform to assist in liftgate closure.

As an alternative the Tommy Gate TT model platforms are built with an open diamond pattern steel-grating, for a high grip surface.

Aluminum

Tommy Gate's Aluminum Platforms are comprised of interlocking extrusions of 6061-T6 aircraft-quality aluminum for excellent strength and light-weight contraction. Double-walled construction adds designed strength. Tongue and groove connections are used to avoid unnecessary welding and to provide for easier repair. Tommy Gate uses a Torsion Bar (Closure-Assist) in Aluminum platforms to assist platform closuring.

Tommy Gate design the liftgate surface for company signage. Aluminum provides a nice surface and good looks.
