What we do at Precision EndGate - Save Money … Increase Safety

At Precision EndGate Safety, we work with independent dump truck owners, construction companies, and executives concerned about being sued and the impact of rising insurance costs due to accidents involving their trucks and trailers.

Jurisdictions across North America are holding employees and executives directly responsible for accidents, leading to lawsuits and penalties.

Just one accident could result in skyrocketing workplace insurance rates and fines that can, and do, cripple companies. All as a result of accidents that are preventable.

Companies are frustrated by the loss of time and money that occurs when an end gate / tail gate opens accidentally and spills debris all over the road or when an accident occurs when a lift system is left in the raised position.

Our clients appreciate the fact that our Dump Box Safety System saves time, reduces the risk of accidents, and increases productivity.

Put an end to dump box spills and overhead collisions forever!

Precision's Dump Box Safety System is a proven fix, guaranteed to keep dump trucks loads where they belong; securely behind the endgate / tailgate. Our innovative patented system works by overriding the tailgate locking mechanism to ensure no tailgate will ever open accidentally. The new Elevation Indicator System has a dashboard light indicator and in cab audible alarm that activates when the lift is up in a potentially dangerous posistion.

Our Dump Box Safety System and Elevation Indicator System works on all trucks with a lift system including; dump trucks, flatbeds, garbage trucks and haulers with a lift system.

Say Goodbye Forever To :
• Time delays and lost productivity related to spills
• Costly repairs to property, vehicles and equipment damaged by spilled debris or a lifted truck box
• Fines and penalties
• Compromised public confidence
• Crashes that occur when truck boxes are left up
• Skyrocketing costs related to accident clean-up, fines, and insurance premiums

What Is a Box Truck?

There are many manufacturers of box trucks for the US market. While there are differences in each model, box trucks do have many similarities:

  • Box trucks have separate, box-like cargo areas that sit on the frame.
    The box on some trucks is completely separate from the cab. The cargo area of those trucks cannot be accessed from the cab.
  • Some box trucks have a cargo area that is grafted to the cab. In such cases, the cargo area may be accessed from the cab.
  • Most box trucks have a roll-up rear door that is similar to a garage door.
  • Box trucks are generally used by companies that need to haul large items such as furniture, appliances, and large boxes.
  • Box trucks are very common. You probably see them every day. They are frequently used as rental moving vans by companies like U-Haul and Ryder.
  • Box trucks are not all large. They come in all sizes.

Given the size and nature of box trucks, there may be a number of ways in which a serious injury can result due to negligent actions on the part of the operator.
