CA 2347353
A device consisting of three panels, a rear panel and two side panels, hinged to the tailgate of a pick- up truck and to each other in such a manner that when unfolded and secured with the tailgate in a lowered position, it results in an increased and enclosed area of the pick-up box to permit carrying oversized objects by pick-up trucks with six foot or eight foot nominal length boxes. The device can be hinged downward when the tailgate is in a lowered, horizontal position thereby not obstructing the loading or unloading process. The device folds for storage against the closed tailgate by means of adjustable hinges, taking a minimum of space when not in use without unduly obstructing the pick-up box loading area. Materials chosen may be of any kind such as, but not limited to, steel, plastic or wood and painted to suit requirements with suitable lights and/or reflectors installed. The device provides an enclosed, increased loading area for pick-up trucks beyond the extreme end of the open tailgate and enhances road safety and can be installed as an aftermarket items or incorporated into the original manufactured vehicles.
