Tailgate Theft Protector for 2019-2026 Chevy Silverado/GMC Sierra

MPN: CR4465

Tailgate theft takes under a minute, needs no tools, and is expensive to fix. The Tailgate Theft Protector for 2019-2026 Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra from Cali Raised LED is a vehicle-specific tailgate lock that bolts straight to your tailgate with tamper-resistant security hardware and shuts down the method thieves actually use.

Stop the Lift-Off, Keep Your Tailgate

Here is how tailgate theft works: drop the gate, lift it straight off the hinge, walk away. It is quiet, it is fast, and it does not require a single tool. This protector blocks that lift-off point, so the easiest way to take your tailgate stops being an option.

Laser-Cut 304 Stainless Steel, Left Uncoated On Purpose

Cut from 304 stainless steel, so it stands up to rain, road salt, and trail abuse without rusting out. We leave it uncoated by design. Stainless does not need paint or powder coat to survive, and skipping the finish means there is nothing to chip, scratch, or peel down the road. Made in the USA by Cali Raised LED and backed by our limited lifetime warranty.

Two Security Bolts, Bit Included

This one mounts directly to the tailgate using two tamper-resistant security bolts, and the bit you need to install them comes in the box. No drilling, no cutting, and about 5 to 10 minutes with basic hand tools.

Fits Silverado and Sierra, 1500 Through 3500 HD

Chevy Silverado in Work Truck, Custom, Custom Trail Boss, LT, RST, LT Trail Boss, LTZ, High Country, and ZR2. GMC Sierra in Base, SLE, Elevation, SLT, AT4, AT4X, Denali, and Denali Ultimate. Your tailgate keeps opening, closing, and latching exactly the way it always has.

Q: Will this fit my 2021 Silverado LTZ?
A: Yes. It fits the 2019-2026 Chevy Silverado in Work Truck, Custom, Custom Trail Boss, LT, RST, LT Trail Boss, LTZ, High Country, and ZR2, and the 2019-2026 GMC Sierra in Base, SLE, Elevation, SLT, AT4, AT4X, Denali, and Denali Ultimate, across 1500, 2500, 3500 and HD.

Q: Does one part fit both the Silverado and the Sierra?
A: Yes. The Silverado and Sierra share the same tailgate for these model years, so a single protector covers both trucks.

Q: I have the MultiPro or MultiFlex multi-function tailgate. Will this fit?
A: Yes. Our fitment covers the AT4 and Denali trims that carry the multi-function tailgate as standard, along with the rest of the Silverado and Sierra lineup. If your truck also has a power or motorized tailgate, contact us before ordering, since that has not been tested.

Q: I have a 2019 Silverado 1500 LD or a 2019 Sierra 1500 Limited. Will this fit?
A: Contact us before ordering. In 2019 GM sold the previous body style alongside the new truck under the LD and Limited names, and those use the earlier tailgate. The same applies to 2019 HD models, which moved to the current body for 2020.

Q: What hardware is included?
A: Two tamper-resistant security bolts and the bit needed to install them.

Q: What is it made from?
A: Laser-cut 304 stainless steel, made in the USA by Cali Raised LED and backed by a limited lifetime warranty.

Q: Is it painted or coated?
A: No, and that is deliberate. It is left as raw 304 stainless steel. Stainless resists rust on its own, so a coating would only add a finish that can chip, scratch, or peel over time.

Q: How does it stop tailgate theft?
A: Thieves drop the tailgate and lift it off the hinge, which takes seconds and requires no tools. This protector blocks that lift-off point so the method no longer works.

Q: How long does installation take?
A: About 5 to 10 minutes with basic hand tools. No drilling or permanent modification.

Q: Will it work with a motorized or power tailgate?
A: This has not been tested on motorized tailgates. If your truck is equipped with one, contact us before ordering.
