Is the Railgate compatible with most box trucks and trailers?
Yes, it installs on a wide range of vehicles and bolts on in hours, not days.

Does the Railgate require dual-pole (high-power) wiring?
No, the Beltdraulic system operates on existing accessory power, using regenerative lowering to help keep the battery charged.

Does the Railgate require a separate boost charger or low voltage disconnect (LVD)?
No, the system manages power efficiently without additional accessories. It only draws power from the truck when it is running, preventing battery drain.

What maintenance is required?
Virtually none—without hydraulic components, there are no fluid changes, cracked hoses, or pump failures to worry about.

Does the Railgate require hydraulic fluid?
No, it is 100% fluid-free, eliminating leaks, seasonal fluid changes, and hydraulic-related downtime.

Can the Railgate operate in extreme weather?
Yes, it is built with corrosion-resistant materials and sealed electronics rated to IP67, ensuring performance in rain, snow, and extreme temperatures.

Does the Railgate require special training to operate?
No, it uses a simple control interface similar to traditional liftgates, making it easy for drivers to use with minimal training.

Does the Railgate require a subscription fee for real-time monitoring?
No, the Railgate broadcasts telemetry without a subscription fee to the telematics system of your choice.  Fleet managers can monitor battery health, liftgate function, and system performance for no additional payments to RISE Robotics.
