Clear filtersTwo-Post Lifts: Frequently Asked Questions
What ceiling height do I need for a two-post lift?
Most standard two-post lifts require a ceiling of at least 12 feet. Extended-height models such as the BendPak 10AP-168 (168" overall height) need roughly 14 feet, while floorplate and open-top models like the 9APF are designed specifically for low-ceiling garages.
What is the difference between a clearfloor and floorplate two-post lift?
A clearfloor lift routes hydraulic lines and equalization cables through an overhead beam, leaving the floor between columns completely open. A floorplate lift routes them through a low steel plate on the floor, eliminating overhead obstructions - ideal for tall vans and low ceilings.
How thick does my concrete need to be for a two-post lift?
BendPak generally requires a minimum 4-6 inch reinforced concrete slab (3,000+ PSI, cured), depending on model. Always consult the installation manual for your specific lift before anchoring.
Are these two-post lifts ALI certified?
Many BendPak two-post models, including the 10AP series, are ALI Certified to the ANSI/ALI ALCTV standard. Certification status is listed on each product page.
