Lifting Equipment

Lifting equipment for vehicles and garage workshops is essential for performing maintenance and repair tasks safely and efficiently. This equipment includes hydraulic jacks, scissor lifts, two-post lifts, and four-post lifts, each designed to handle specific lifting requirements. These devices are constructed from high-strength materials such as steel and aluminium, ensuring durability, stability, and the ability to support significant weights.

Hydraulic jacks are portable lifting devices that use hydraulic pressure to raise vehicles off the ground. They feature a robust lifting arm and a pump mechanism, allowing for precise control over the lifting height. Floor jacks, a common type of hydraulic jack, are equipped with swivel casters for easy manoeuvrability and a wide base for stability. Bottle jacks, another type, offer a compact design suitable for high-lift applications. Both types are essential for quick and convenient lifting during wheel changes and under-vehicle inspections.

Scissor lifts provide a compact and versatile solution for lifting vehicles. They operate using hydraulic or pneumatic systems to extend a series of crossed supports, lifting the vehicle to the desired height. Scissor lifts are favoured for their ability to fit into tight spaces and their relatively low profile when not in use. They offer adjustable lifting capacities and heights, making them suitable for a variety of vehicles and maintenance tasks.

Two-post and four-post lifts are more substantial lifting solutions designed for comprehensive vehicle maintenance. Two-post lifts utilise two upright posts with adjustable arms that engage the vehicle's lifting points, providing clear access to the vehicle's underside. Four-post lifts feature a platform that supports the entire vehicle, often including additional features like wheel alignment kits and rolling jacks. Both types are equipped with advanced safety mechanisms, such as automatic locking systems and overload protection, ensuring secure lifting and operator safety. These lifting devices are critical for performing extensive repairs, inspections, and routine maintenance in professional garage workshops.
