Car Lifts
A car lift transforms any garage or shop, giving you clean, safe access to the underside of a vehicle or a way to store a second car overhead. From two post service lifts to four post storage and parking lifts, scissor lifts, and alignment racks, the right lift depends on whether you're servicing vehicles or saving space.
Match the lift type and capacity to your work and your heaviest vehicle, and confirm your ceiling height, concrete, and power supply before installing. Choose from home-garage models up to heavy-duty commercial and truck lifts, all built for safe, reliable lifting.

Choosing the Right Car Lift
The right car lift depends on what you do most: service or storage. Two post lifts raise the vehicle by its frame for open-underbody service, four post lifts drive on for storage and heavy service, scissor lifts save space in tight garages, and alignment lifts add the level platform needed for wheel alignments. Match the type to your work, then size the capacity to your heaviest vehicle.
Before buying any lift, confirm three things: ceiling height, concrete, and power. Overhead lifts need more clearance than low-ceiling and scissor models, most lifts require a qualifying concrete slab, and many run on 220V single-phase power. Getting these right ensures a safe, proper installation.
Which Lift Type Is Right for You
Choose a two post lift for the best all-around service access, a four post lift for storing a second vehicle or heavy-duty and alignment work, a scissor lift when floor space or ceiling height is limited, and an alignment rack if you offer alignment service. Many garages start with a two or four post lift and add from there.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size car lift do I need?
Match the capacity to the heaviest vehicle you'll lift, with a safety margin. A 9,000 to 10,000 lb lift handles most cars and light trucks, while heavier trucks and commercial use call for 12,000 lb and up.
How much ceiling height do I need?
It depends on the lift type. Overhead two and four post lifts often need around 11 to 12 feet, while low-ceiling, floorplate, and scissor lifts fit shorter garages. Always add the height of your tallest vehicle to the lift's rise.
Can I install a car lift at home?
Yes, provided you have adequate ceiling height, a qualifying concrete slab, and the right power supply. Many lifts are sized for home garages, and low-ceiling and scissor models exist for tighter spaces. We can help you match a lift to your garage.
