Introduction of GateKEEPER by Leitner Designs
Leitner Designs has introduced the GateKEEPER, a foldable and lockable gate specifically designed for pickup trucks. When used in conjunction with their Active Cargo System (ACS) FORGED, the GateKEEPER provides an aluminum barrier that helps secure the contents of the truck bed.
Customer Feedback and Design Inspiration
Bernhard Leitner, the Founder and Chief Designer of Leitner Designs, shared, “Our customers expressed a need for a secure way to store larger equipment in their pickup beds, similar to how they can with GearPODs. We took their feedback into account. No matter the size of your equipment, GateKEEPER provides a secure solution.”
Features of GateKEEPER
The GateKEEPER features a modular design that allows it to be installed on any size pickup compatible with the ACS FORGED range. Additionally, the component is designed to be maintenance-free and uses friction hinges instead of gas struts. Its molle panel design permits users to attach lightweight gear directly to the GateKEEPER.
