My ceilings are 11' 2". Model is from Direct Lift - HR8000. Needs 112" min of head room to fit lift and 135" wide. Bolts to floor need atleast 4" 3000 psi concrete

Nice lift, I lucked out with them having a supplier in Delaware. I just picked it up in my pick up (no freight charge) weighs about 1400lbs.

$1500.00

That's awesome. A friend of mine is in the market for a lift now. He just did a 40' X 30' garage.

That is awesome. My buddy picked up a nice used lift this weekend for 1k. He is getting it installed this coming weekend. So now I will have a place to use a lift . He has a huge 4 car garage he just added on to his house.

I'm sure you are in heaven with that thing.
