Tonneau Gate is the first and ONLY tonneau cover with its shape, features and design. It has been designed to fit any truck application with a bed, regardless of dimensions, shape, make, model, or even the year of the truck.
The current prototype will give you a good example of what a production piece could look like. Since the tailgate is being lifted instead of being lowered, you gain up to two feet of loading and unloading room using Tonneau Gate. Gas mileage is also increased due to better air flow with the more aerodynamic design.
The handles and keyed locks that are commonly located on top of the cover have been eliminated, giving it a smooth custom look, similar to that of a car trunk. So, how do you open the "trunk"? Simple. To open or unlock Tonneau Gate, you raise the license plate to reveal the hidden handle and locks. Another possible feature is a keyless barcode entry system, similar to what can be found on Ford vehicles.
The handle triggers latches on the "tailgate" and releases the striker bolts. The gas struts do their job which help raise, hold, and lower the tonneau cover. After that has taken place, you now have more access to the inside of your bed than ever before!
Tonneau Gate is the World's First Patented "Trunk" Tonneau Cover.
This is only a prototype. This prototype gives you an example of what a production piece could look like for your truck. The overall style and design is not set and will be worked out once production has started.
I am currently looking for a manufacturer to team up with for mass production.
