Need car lift recommendations for new home Options

[Cairo94507]

Hi Guys,

My wife and I bought a new (to us) home on 2.8 acres (hopefully she is content to stay there until I am in the ground (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hands.gif) ). It has a large 3-car that is 6' wider than my current over-sized 3-car, has a 10' ceiling and is deeper too but I can't remember how much deeper. I am going back tomorrow morning to take measurements of all of the rooms so I can start thinking what we will do inside.

I am looking for lift recommendations for that garage. I have thus far had a 4-post and a scissor-lift and loved both. But I like to begin from scratch and research what is new and see if that is a better fit for for my today needs. And, yes, I am going to completely remodel that garage.

To be honest, I am kind of liking the 2-post BendPak GrandPrix GP-7LCS. https://www.bendpak.com/car-lifts/two-post-lifts/gp-7lcs/

It is only 106.5" tall (about 8'10") so that leaves me 14" of ceiling clearance which I like. What do you guys think or recommend?

It will of course be a lot of work, but in the end should be really nice.

Thanks,
Michael

Hi Jeff,
That's a good point re the open garage door. I will do hi-lift doors like I have in my current garage regardless. I will measure tomorrow but the garage is deep enough, I believe that the 2 posts would be forward of the garage doors. But I will measure and figure that out. If the 2-post does not fit (I really think it will) then I would do another in-ground scissor lift. Mine is really easy to use and a really low-profile visibility lift. My wife thought it was a very good choice.

I had a home with a pit in the garage floor about 45 years ago (Wow! I am getting old) I did not like it. Especially now at my age it would be a pain in the rear to go up and down those stairs and even then the car is sitting on it's wheels.

Jett - I will check out their lifts- thanks.
