TUK-A-WAY®

We invented the Tuk-A-Way liftgate so that the platform can fold and stow under the truck body in the dock ready position. Today, Maxon offers a wide range of steel and aluminum platforms of different sizes along with various bed height options.


Extreme Practicality

The key to success for the Tuk-A-Way product line is that the platform is neatly out of the way when not needed and/or in the case of dock loading.

The standard Tuk-A-Way product line has evolved into a wide variety of gates accommodating light and medium-duty trucks. Economical, lightweight designs such as the TE-15/ TE-20 are ideal for smaller trucks, while workhorse models like the TE-25/TE-30 provide excellent value. 

All of our Tuk-A-Ways are low maintenance. The heavy-duty extension plates are made from 1/4” thick diamond plate and have sturdy tubing and channel to help prevent loading damage. The models also feature a weather sealed pump box that protects against the elements.
