Okay guys, after 3 years of debating I'm about ready to buy a lift for my barn. I was all set on a 2 post lift because it would allow me more room. However, no matter where I put a 2 post lift, it will eliminate some of my pallet shelving access from my fork truck. That is not a good thing.
After reading more and more about the 4 post lifts that can be moved on casters (when not loaded with vehicles), I think that is the way to go. Here is the lift that I am seriously considering right now Panther 7K service/storage lift Also, here is one that I may have to go with because of the extra height under the lift with a car on top Extra height lift
The idea of being able to move the lift and still access all of my shelving is going to be the ticket. So far I've been able to get a quote of exactly $100 less than what is listed in the link I provided above. I'm open to cheaper prices on that same lift or hearing about pricing on comparable lifts. In all reality, here is the lift I most likely need Panther 9K storage/service lift since my big Dodge weighs in just under 8,000 pounds and I'd like to be able to use the lift to service it as well. I've found a quote of $1895 for this lift. Again, I'd welcome better prices on this lift or pricing on competitive quality service/storage lifts that are similar and can be moved on included castors.
Oh, one more link. Here is another 9k lift I'm considering if I can get more info, testamonials and better price quotes. Direct Lift 9k
Somebody help me! My wife thinks I've lost my mind...
