Re: Pole Frame Garage

Been eyeing 4 post lifts. cool thing about them is usually you can get casters for them so you don't have to bolt them down, and can easily roll them to a different position. Bonus for me since I change my mind alot. Downside is the price, twice as much as a two post lift. I just like the stability of them tho.

Re: Pole Frame Garage

A 4-post affords you the ability to stack cars safely, which is a bigger bonus than you might initially expect.

I considered a 2-post when I started looking, but the mobility, safety, ability to stack cars, etc. all won me over on the 4-post. As soon as you get one, you'll complain that you should've done it so much sooner.

Re: Pole Frame Garage

Garage is about done, with the exception of the bathroom. Kids brought the air hockey table out. It has seen more use in the last few days than it has in 10 years.

Re: Pole Frame Garage

Bathroom is finished. I pick the two post lift up Tuesday. Bad time to be lift shopping. Most are backordered until August - October. I found a company that has 4 - forward i10's left. They are a family owned business in my home state so I committed. It was a little more than i wanted to spend, but i felt good about purchasing somewhat local.

Re: Pole Frame Garage

Lift is in - I'm calling it done. I was hoping I would be able to keep it back far enough off the wall and be able to keep the garage door up. Success
