The Citroen Berlingo is built around cargo space and everyday practicality, so a manual tailgate that needs shoving open and pulled shut can feel like a step backward. Decoin's power liftgate kit brings smooth, motorized control to the Berlingo's rear hatch, opened with a key fob or a single button. Details are below.
The Berlingo earns its keep hauling groceries, tools, and gear, which means its tailgate gets used constantly. Decoin's Power Liftgate kit replaces the manual lift with a quiet motor that raises and lowers the hatch smoothly, even when the Berlingo is loaded to capacity.
As the tailgate closes, a sensor checks for resistance and automatically stops and reverses if it detects an obstruction - useful protection when loading bulky items in tight parking spaces. Double bar support, stronger than the factory hinge setup, keeps the Berlingo's hatch steady under repeated daily use.
No extra remote is needed - the Berlingo's own key fob triggers the new liftgate directly. A button near the driver's seat and another on the tailgate itself let you open or close the hatch hands-free, whether you're behind the wheel or standing at the back with arms full.
Working in a garage with a low ceiling? Hold the control button once the tailgate reaches your preferred height, and the Berlingo will stop there automatically every time after that.
The kit bolts onto the Berlingo's existing tailgate hardware using ordinary hand tools, with a full manual (printed or digital) guiding the process - no specialist equipment required.
Is the kit strong enough for a work van's daily use? Yes, the reinforced double bar support is designed for frequent, heavy-duty tailgate use like the Berlingo sees.
Can I still push the tailgate closed by hand? Yes, manual operation remains available alongside the powered functions at any time.
Does installation require drilling into the body? No, the kit is designed to use the Berlingo's existing mounting points.
