We’ve listed the main types of garage lifts below, and links to some additional helpful resources, but if you need any additional help or advice please call our friendly team on 0113 469 0572 today.
2 Post Lifts
2 post lifts are a staple in any vehicle workshop. They offer excellent versatility and are suitable for a wide range of vehicles, from cars to light vans. Their design means they take up minimal floor space when not in use, whilst allowing for easy access to the underside of the vehicle, making tasks such as maintenance, repairs, and inspections much more manageable.
Car Scissor Lifts
Car scissor lifts are compact and space-saving, making them ideal for smaller garages or workshops with limited space. They operate using a scissor-like mechanism, lifting vehicles vertically. Despite their smaller footprint, they offer impressive lifting capacities and can accommodate various vehicle sizes.
4 Post Lifts
4-post lifts are renowned for their stability, lifting capacity and ease of use. They feature four support columns, providing a sturdy platform for lifting vehicles. These lifts are particularly useful for tasks that require extended periods of elevation, such as storage or wheel alignment.
Jacking Beams
Jacking beams are essential accessories for vehicle lifts, enhancing their functionality and versatility. A jacking beam is an adjustable, steel-framed hydraulic device used in conjunction with a 4-post lift, to lift a car further from the platform of the lift.
Motorcycle Scissor Lifts
Motorcycle lifts are a smaller version of the vehicle scissor lift, specifically designed to hold two-wheel vehicles, and much like car scissor lifts, are typically made of steel and powered by air or hydraulic cylinders.
ATL MOT lifts
For MOT testing bays, these 4 post lifts offer advanced features such as automated operation and precise positioning, streamlining the testing process and minimising downtime, as well as being certified by DVSA for use during an MOT test.
Commercial Van Lifts
Commercial vans often require specialised lifting equipment due to their size and weight. Commercial van lifts come in several types, these can be 2-post, 4-post, or scissor lifts, as long as the lifting capacity is suitable for van lifting.
