Buy with confidence
Strongman Tools have been supplying Parking and Vehicle Storage equipment specifically designed for domestic customers, for years. We have more experience than any other company to help you select the right solution for your home. All our lifts and ramps are designed by us, they have passed the same stringent testing required for equipment used in Commercial Workshops. We understand that our customers may have no experience whatsover with a 4 Post Lift and will take the time to explain the advantages, and any potential drawbacks which your particular circumstances may present. Our offices in Leamington Spa include full demonstration facilities. Should you wish to collect the lift and install it yourself, we encourage you to do so and provide clear instructions and helpful videos.... on the other hand, if you prefer to let the professionals deliver, install and commission your new lift then our engineers will provide you with a first class service.
Worried about oil leaks?
Our 4 Posts can be specified with full length drip trays which will ensure that the car which lives underneath is protected from anything which may be deposited from the stored vehicle.
Please see our "Building One" page for hints and tips regarding choosing and installing a Parking Lift.
For full dimensions, specs etc. please select "4 Post Lifts".
Electrics
Our 4 Posts have been specifically designed for the domestic user. They are powered by 240V motors but users will need a 16A Motor Rated Breaker in the supply and a Female CEEForm socket to plug into.... please ask us for clarification about electrics if you are unsure.
Measure Up....
Many of our customers own Classic, Pre-War and Sports Cars as projects or weekend vehicles. They often don't even consider the possibility of a 4 Post to aid maintenance and storage as they believe, rightly, that standard commercial equipment will be too large for their available space. For owners of vehicles which have a track of less than 1760mm (measure outside edge of one tyre to outside edge of the other) and wheelbase (flats of the tyres on the floor) of less than 3100mm then they may well be able to fit our smallest 4 Post into their garage to double up parking. Our "Pocket 4 Post" is the Glenfinnan, it is extremely popular with Classic Car Users, each of its' ramps are 500mm wide and there is a 683mm gap between them, overall the dimensions of this lift come in at just 2.5m wide and 3.5m long (excluding removeable up-ramps) - it can be squeezed in to the tightest spaces. You will need to measure the height of both vehicles and add 220mm, if the roof/ ceiling / eaves or beams are lower than the combined height (and the car to be stored underneath is lower than 1800mm) then one of our Glenfinnan's will do the job nicely. The car underath the stored vehicle doesn't have to be tiny, so long as it is less than 2160mm wide overall it will fit under a Glenfinnan, but, please remember the Glenfinnan is a small lift and although a larger car will fit under you will not be able to raise the larger vehicle if the track exceeds 1760mm. We do a range of 4 Posts lifts, in different sizes, and will be able to match your requirements according to available space / height / car size specifications.
If the stored vehicle is Narrow but longer than 3.1m then we do a version of this lift which has 4m long ramps. We also sell our "Classic Parker" 4 Post which retains the same dimensions for the raised vehicle but allows a wider (up to 2640mm max.) car to fit underneath. All 4 Post lifts can be used to park one up / one down but you will find that only Strongman come 240V, as standard, in sizes and with features specifically tailored to the home garage.
