Southern California's Commerce Truck & Equipment recently became a stocking dealer of VersaLift, a manufacturer of bucket trucks, digger derricks, cable-placers and high reach aerial lifts for a wide range of industries.

As a designer and manufacturer of bucket trucks, VersaLift has an established history of changing the game as well as leading change with important innovations in design and manufacture of bucket trucks since 1965, according to the company. The engineering and manufacturing teams at VersaLift have led the industry by creating several of the most important innovations in the bucket truck industry.

In the 1980s, VersaLift created the Electroguard system, which continues to ensure a significant insulation gap at all times, no matter how the boom is positioned: either extended or stowed. Electroguard has since been replicated and has become an industry-standard safety feature on insulated aerial lifts produced by all manufacturers.

VersaLift's invention of the articulated telescopic aerial lift in the late 1980's revolutionized the way that linemen would access the elevated workplace, according to the company.

Bucket truck safety and efficiency are what drive innovation at VersaLift, which is a correlating importance to Commerce Truck & Equipment Sales. The next major innovation in lineman safety for VersaLift is the TruGuard bucket truck safety.

TruGuard is a passive safety feature that functions similarly to an airbag or seatbelt, preventing injury by isolating the entire work platform, including the upper controls. Extensively tested, TruGuard creates an isolation barrier through which hydraulic fluid must flow. This prevents technicians, both in the bucket and on the ground, from exposure to electric current. As of 2019, TruGuard comes standard on nearly every VersaLift insulated unit.
