Leyman's Latest Hide-a-Wayâ„¢ Style Liftgate Offers Large Platform, Higher Load Capacity
New Leyman LHLP Heavy Duty Tuckunder Style Gate Includes Auto-Tilt Feature; Design Ideal For Pallet Loading and Combination Dock/Street Delivery
CINCINNATI - Leyman Lift Gates has brought the increased productivity of a large, high-capacity platform to the popular tuckunder style of heavy duty liftgate with the new Leyman LHLP Hide-A-Way Series. Leyman LHLP gates are available through leading truck equipment distributors across North America.
Available in 4400 and 5500-pound-capacity models, Leyman LHLP liftgates quickly fold beneath the rear of the vehicle to ensure complete adaptability to any delivery situation. Each LHLP model features an all-aluminum bi-fold platform up to 63 inches deep and 86 inches wide to easily accommodate pallets.
The LHLP 4400 can accommodate a floor height of 45 inches to 59 inches. Standard engineering enhancements designed for maximum reliability include:
• Hand held remote control
• Automatic mechanical tilt
• Level ride platform
• Greaseless operation
• Cart stops
In addition, the LHLP features an aluminum bifold platform with closing assist springs. The threshold plate for the LHLP 4400 does not add length to the vehicle.
Sharing many standard features with the LHLP 4400, the LHLP 5500 is best utilized with vehicle floor heights from 48 inches to 60 inches. The LHLP 5500 features power down on demand and platform brackets that do not dig into the ground when tilting. Both capacities of LHLP gates are delivered fully assembled and ready for installation.
"The versatility of a tuckunder-style gate traditionally has been compromised by a limit in platform size; that's no longer true for fleets that specify the Leyman LHLP," said Leyman Liftgates President John McHenry. "This is another exclusive solution for customers seeking greater convenience and productivity in an ultra-low-maintenance design."
