Trade, fleet and specification

Buying one lift for a home garage and buying six for a shop are different transactions. These are the things trade buyers ask us that consumers do not.

Certification documentation

If your insurer, your landlord or your state references the ALI standard, you need the certificate for the specific model and capacity, not a brand-level assurance. Tell us at enquiry stage and we will confirm what exists before you specify anything. Where a model is not certified we will say so. See ALI certification.

Multi-bay quoting

Freight economics change substantially when several lifts move on one consignment instead of four separate LTL shipments. If you are equipping a bay at a time over a year, say so, because the sensible answer may be to schedule deliveries rather than to order as you go.

Installation and commissioning

We do not install. What we will do is tell you honestly what a given model needs: the concrete specification, the ceiling height, the power supply, and whether the manufacturer requires or recommends a trained installer. Coordinating that with your own contractor is normally cheaper and faster than a national install service.

Power

Single-phase 208-230V is the usual requirement for a two-post lift and it is not a normal domestic garage circuit. Three-phase changes the model options. Confirm your supply before you shortlist, because it is a genuine constraint rather than a detail.

Where we are

We are agreeing dealer terms and are not quoting firm lead times. What we can do now is price against the current market, confirm which certification and specification documents exist for a given model, and tell you honestly when we expect to be able to fulfil.

If you have a project with a date on it, put the date in the enquiry and we will tell you whether we are a realistic option for it.

Send the bay count, the vehicle types, the ceiling height and the programme through the contact page. Enquiries with measurements come back faster than enquiries without them.
