Garage auto storage lifts.

[kat hunter]

I need some input on quality auto lifts for home garages.

What are you using, likes and dislikes, and anything else you want to share.

I know Ray has a couple of Cytech Doublepark lifts that he is happy with, but
I've been calling and emailing them for several weeks with no contact made.
Their phone is still connected but they are not returning my calls, have not
responded to emails and website contact page link does not work.

Thanks

My friend Don has one I will ask him what kind it is. :biggrin:

Ken Carter From Naples Had A Couple Of Nice Lifts In His Mini-mansion Garage. You Might Contact Him. He Made A Remark How He Got Them From Somewhere In Texas I Think.

Not real sure on pricing, but you might also look at BendPak http://www.bendpak.com/ A lot of the shops in our area use them. Seems like a pretty well built piece, shop next to me has 5 of them on his floor, 4 twin post and 1 4 post. For storage only, this one looks intersting http://www.bendpak.com/cart_product_detail.php?prod_id=247&cat_id=48

Factory is about 1/2 hour drive from me.

In this part of the garage the height is 10' 6". I can put 1 car on the lift & park one under it. This is a 9000 lb. lift so I can put my Suburban on it without a worry.

Talk to Mr.Fixuuuuumm...I saw the ones he has and they are nice. If I had a memory I would be able to recall the name...smith?

Is this so you can put a new trailer under the cat?

I bought 2 lifts from www.americanautomotiveequipment.com/ (http://www.americanautomotiveequipment.com/). They have a complete selection with pricing starting around $1295.

If anything interest you on their web site, make an inquiey on line but don't purchase right away. Once they have your e-mail address, and they haven't heard from you in a week or less they will start reducing their prices. Play the game and save money on products and possibly freight also.

Hope this helps,
Ken
