Best Use Cases

Automotive lifts and hoists from During Days are engineered for versatility, making them indispensable in a variety of settings:

Professional Repair Shops and Service Centers
Lifts and hoists are the backbone of any automotive workshop. They enable mechanics to raise vehicles to a comfortable working height, improving access to the undercarriage for repairs, inspections, and maintenance. Two-post lifts are ideal for general repairs, while four-post lifts provide extra stability for heavy vehicles or alignment work. Specialty lifts, such as motorcycle or in-ground lifts, cater to specific vehicle types and repair needs.

Home Garages and DIY Enthusiasts
For hobbyists and car lovers, a reliable lift or hoist transforms a home garage into a functional workshop. Low-rise and mid-rise lifts are perfect for spaces with ceiling height restrictions, while portable engine hoists allow for safe removal and installation of engines or transmissions. These tools make it easier to perform oil changes, brake repairs, or full restorations at home, saving time and money.

Vehicle Dealerships and Showrooms
Car dealerships use lifts for pre-delivery inspections, undercarriage cleaning, and elevated vehicle displays. Four-post lifts with extended runways are ideal for showcasing vehicles or preparing them for customer delivery. Hoists also help with efficient movement and storage of inventory.

Fleet Maintenance and Commercial Operations
Companies with large fleets—such as delivery services, trucking companies, or government agencies—rely on high-capacity lifts for routine inspections and maintenance. Mobile column lifts and heavy-duty four-post lifts make it easy to service multiple vehicles quickly, reducing downtime and improving operational efficiency.

Motorcycle and Small Equipment Shops
Motorcycle lifts and small equipment hoists are tailored for two-wheeled vehicles, ATVs, and other compact machines. They provide stable, adjustable platforms for repairs, cleaning, or storage, and often include extension kits for wider or longer vehicles.

Space Optimisation and Storage
Automotive lifts allow for vertical stacking of vehicles, freeing up valuable floor space in garages or workshops. Four-post lifts can double as parking solutions, enabling you to store one vehicle above another or create additional storage for tools and equipment.

Insulation
A well-insulated garage or workshop is essential for maintaining a comfortable working environment and protecting your equipment from temperature extremes. Explore our range of insulation products to improve energy efficiency, reduce noise, and create a safer, more productive workspace. Proper insulation also helps protect sensitive tools and vehicles from moisture and condensation, extending their lifespan.

Tool Storage & Cabinets
Keep your tools organised and accessible with heavy-duty tool chests, cabinets, and wall-mounted storage solutions. A tidy workspace improves efficiency and safety, making it easier to tackle any repair or maintenance task.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQS)

What are the main types of automotive lifts and hoists, and how do I choose the right one?

Automotive lifts and hoists come in several types, each suited to different vehicles and tasks. Two-post lifts are popular for general repairs and take up less space, making them ideal for smaller garages. Four-post lifts offer greater stability and are perfect for heavy vehicles, alignments, or storage. Scissor lifts and low-rise lifts are great for quick maintenance and spaces with height restrictions. In-ground lifts provide a clean look and save space but require professional installation. Engine hoists are designed for lifting engines or transmissions out of vehicles. When choosing a lift, consider your vehicle types, weight capacity needs, available space, and how often you’ll use the equipment. Always check safety certifications and manufacturer recommendations before purchasing.

How do automotive lifts and hoists improve safety and efficiency in a garage?

Lifts and hoists provide a stable, elevated platform for working on vehicles, reducing the risk of accidents and injuries compared to using jacks or ramps. They allow mechanics to access the undercarriage comfortably, making repairs faster and less physically demanding. Modern lifts include safety locks, reinforced construction, and automatic shut-offs to prevent unintended lowering or shifting. By optimising workspace and enabling vertical vehicle stacking, lifts also free up floor space for tools, storage, or additional vehicles, enhancing overall garage efficiency.

What weight capacities and lift heights should I consider?

Weight capacity is crucial—choose a lift rated for the heaviest vehicle you plan to service, with a safety margin. Two-post lifts typically handle 7,000–15,000 lbs, while four-post and mobile column lifts can exceed 18,000 lbs. Lift height determines undercarriage access: low-rise lifts raise up to 36 inches, mid-rise up to 48 inches, and full-rise lifts can go higher, allowing you to stand comfortably beneath the vehicle. Consider your ceiling height and the types of repairs you’ll perform when selecting lift height and capacity.

Are automotive lifts and hoists suitable for home garages or just professional shops?

Many lifts and hoists are designed for home use as well as professional settings. Low-rise and portable lifts are ideal for home garages with limited space or ceiling height. Two-post and four-post lifts can also be installed at home, provided you have adequate space and proper installation. Engine hoists and motorcycle lifts are popular among DIYers for specific tasks. Always follow installation and safety guidelines to ensure safe operation in any setting.

What maintenance is required for automotive lifts and hoists?

Regular maintenance is essential for safety and longevity. Inspect lifts for wear, leaks, or damage before each use. Lubricate moving parts, tighten fittings, and check hydraulic fluid levels as recommended by the manufacturer. Keep lift areas clean and free of debris. Schedule professional inspections periodically, especially for commercial or high-use lifts. Proper maintenance prevents breakdowns, extends equipment life, and ensures safe operation.

Are automotive lifts and hoists safe to use?

Yes, when used correctly and maintained properly. Look for lifts certified by industry standards and follow all manufacturer instructions for installation and operation. Modern lifts include safety features like locking mechanisms, overload protection, and emergency shut-offs. Training and adherence to safety protocols are essential for all users. Never exceed weight limits and always secure vehicles properly before lifting.

Can automotive lifts help with garage space optimisation?

Absolutely. Lifts allow you to stack vehicles vertically, creating more usable floor space for tools, equipment, or additional vehicles. Four-post lifts are especially effective for parking solutions, while portable lifts can be stored when not in use. By maximising vertical space, you can make even a small garage more functional and organised.

What insulation products are recommended for garages with lifts and hoists?

Proper insulation helps regulate temperature, reduce noise, and protect vehicles and equipment from moisture. Consider wall and ceiling insulation panels, weatherstripping for doors, and insulated garage doors. These upgrades create a comfortable, energy-efficient workspace and help preserve your investment in lifts and tools.

How do I install an automotive lift or hoist, and do I need professional help?

Some portable or low-rise lifts can be installed by experienced DIYers, but most two-post, four-post, and in-ground lifts require professional installation to ensure safety and compliance with local codes. Installation involves anchoring the lift, connecting hydraulics or power, and calibrating safety features. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions and consult a professional if you’re unsure.
