Scissor lifts are ideal for many auto shops. Some models are portable, allowing you to move them around the shop or even out of the shop as needed. They’re space-efficient, and you can lower them flush with the floor when not in use. They’re cheaper than traditional lifts, making them a good choice for new auto shop owners with a limited budget. What’s more, an automotive scissor lift is easier to install than a traditional lift and can be used for a range of jobs, including brake, tire, and body work.
Types of Automotive Scissor Lifts We Offer
We provide a wide range of mid-rise and full-rise scissor lifts to accommodate various shop needs. Mid-rise lifts are ideal for low-ceiling spaces and perfect for brake, tire, and body repairs. Full-rise lifts allow mechanics to work comfortably underneath vehicles. Our selection includes top brands like BendPak, Atlas, and John Bean.
Mid-Rise
We carry mid-rise lifts with a height capacity of three to four feet. These are ideal for shops with a low ceiling, but even large shops have found them useful. These lifts can be used for brake, tire, and body repair work. They tend to have a lower weight limit than full-rise lifts but can work well for shops that primarily service passenger cars.
Full-Rise
Our full-rise scissor lifts rise higher than four feet. This means a mechanic can stand under the vehicle while doing repair work. Weight and height limits vary depending on the make and model you pick, but you can expect a full-rise lift to be suitable for repairing passenger vehicles and lightweight trucks.
