We don't currently carry Gator Tonneau Covers but in my research I found quite a few styles available for your 2019 Ford F-150. Whether or not a ladder rack can be added with this cover in place will depend on exactly how your particular tonneau cover installs.

If the cover sits completely inside the bed rails on your truck and doesn't overlap the top then I highly recommend the Adarac Pro Series Custom Ladder Rack; part # A4000964 if you have the 5-1/2 foot bed, # A4000946 if you have the 6-1/2 foot bed, or # A4000947 if you have the 8 foot bed.

This is an excellent rack that mounts right on top of the bed rails, leaving the insides free for compatible tonneau covers, and vertical uprights that don't interfere with the folding covers. Four sliding load stops are also included to help contain your load.

If your existing Gator tonneau cover is not completely inside the bed rails on your F-150 then your only option will be to replace it with an inside-the-rail cover like the excellent BAKFlip MX4 ( # BAK48329 for 5-1/2 foot bed, # BAK48327 for 6-1/2 foot bed, # BAK48328 for 8 foot bed). The cover will work perfectly with the Adarac Ladder Rack mentioned above.

I have attached a couple video demonstrations that you can also check out.
