What Our Customers Say

Advice, options, price, fitting service and communication were excellent. These people could not be more helpful and they will get my business again without question. I would recommend them to friends and family.

Glide-Rite carried out the annual hydraulics check/service and the installation of an air suspension assist system on our motorhome earlier this year. As always, the work was done to the high standard I have come to expect, and in an agreeably timely manner. This company is easy to deal with, and I commend their products, personnel and level of service to all who have need of these.

Excellent company with fantastic service. The air suspension and hydraulics installed on my vehicle have been tremendous. Carl, David and the team are experienced professionals who are so easy to get along with. Couldn’t ask for a better service.
