Your Tommy Gate liftgate is a powerhouse of efficiency, but its performance hinges on a reliable control system. When a control switch fails, it can bring your workflow to a grinding halt and introduce serious safety risks. The Tommy Gate 987 Replacement Fixed Control Assembly is the factory-specified, genuine OEM solution designed to restore immediate and precise command over your liftgate. Get your equipment back to peak operational status and ensure every lift is executed safely and flawlessly with a control unit engineered for dependability.
Crafted directly by Tommy Gate, the 987 control assembly is not just a replacement; it’s a restoration of original factory quality. Built from a high-impact, industrial-grade polymer, its housing is engineered to resist damage from impacts, UV radiation, and harsh chemicals. The internal components are sealed to protect against moisture, dirt, and road salt, ensuring long-term reliability in the most demanding work environments. Choosing this genuine part over an aftermarket alternative guarantees perfect compatibility and upholds the high performance standards you expect from your Tommy Gate liftgate.
This fixed control unit provides simple, ergonomic, and intuitive command of your liftgate. The assembly features robust, momentary rocker switches that are clearly labeled for raise, lower, and fold functions. The momentary design is a critical safety feature, as it requires the operator to maintain pressure on the switch for the liftgate to move, preventing accidental or unattended operation. By mounting directly to the vehicle or liftgate frame, this fixed control is always in a predictable location, eliminating the risks of tangled cords or misplaced handheld pendants that can be common with other control types.
The Tommy Gate 987 is the ideal replacement for a wide range of liftgate models used in delivery, construction, and service industries. Whether your original control has suffered from physical damage, water intrusion, or electrical failure, this assembly provides a complete, all-in-one solution. Installation is streamlined thanks to its direct-fit design and pre-wired harness, minimizing vehicle downtime.
