Wrenchers Four-Post Auto Lifts used for Protecting Paint and Body-while providing Safety
A Four-Post lift can make your home a happier place too. Here’s how. With your motorized and chromed pride-and-joy stored over 6 feet in the air, others can continue to use the garage and you don’t need to keep “reminding” them to be careful with those bikes. Or be worried when everyone jumps out of the SUV after a Saturday afternoon Costco run. No more checking your quarter panels 8 times a day.
An Open and Shut Case
Know, that there are special garage door opener drive assemblies that can help free up ceiling room. If the installation of a four-post lift and its operation is somewhat limited with a center operating garage door opening mechanism, consider installing a high-lift kit to the existing garage door. This means setting up a jackshaft garage door opener that performs its duty off to the side of the door. Not like traditional garage door openers, a jackshaft doesn’t use up space operating from the middle of the ceiling to the center of the garage door. Since jackshaft openers are installed to the area of the wall alongside your garage door, unobstructed ceiling height is made available for your four-post vehicle lift. Your local garage door experts should be able to help you with this installation.
