Commercial-Grade Safety Meets DIY Convenience – Atlas Apex 8 ALI Certified 4 Post Lift

 

Shopping for a reliable 4 post car lift can be a hassle—especially when you're looking for something that’s certified, safe, and flexible enough to use at home. Most lifts either lack certification, require permanent installation, or don’t offer enough clearance for stacking vehicles. The Atlas Apex 8 ALI Certified 8,000 lb 4-Post Lift solves all of that. It’s engineered with hobbyists in mind but still built to commercial-grade standards where it counts—offering ALI certification, heavy-duty construction, and portable convenience without the need to anchor it down.

This Atlas 4 post lift includes an upgraded frame that’s nearly 200 lbs heavier than most other hobbyist lifts, giving it extra stability. It features a lifting height of 72" to the top of the runways and 67" of clearance underneath—enough room to stack most sedans and smaller SUVs. Whether you're storing an extra car or doing light maintenance work, this four post car lift offers serious vertical space without needing a high-ceiling shop. Add in the included caster kit with polyurethane wheels, and you’ve got full mobility from bay to bay or even outdoors.

The Apex 8 isn’t just about strength and lift height—it’s about convenience and peace of mind. From the powder-coated finish to the single-point lock release and redundant safety locks, every detail is designed to make DIY lifts smoother and safer. It runs on a standard 110V outlet with a 30 amp breaker, so there’s no complicated wiring needed. It’s plug-and-play, stack-and-store simplicity. *The concrete must be at least 6" (101 mm) thick and have a minimum strength of 3000 PSI. Installing this lift on inadequate concrete may lead to serious injury or death. It is the customer's responsibility to confirm the concrete's thickness and strength before purchasing and installing the lift.

The Atlas Apex 8 Four-Post Lift (8,000 lb. ALI Certified) demonstrates its residential utility by securely elevating one vehicle over another—an efficient solution for maximizing floor space in tight garages.

Garage-Friendly Setup | Freestanding design with 110V plug.

Key Features of the Atlas Apex 8 ALI Certified 8000lb Four-Post Vehicle Lift You'll Love:

  • ALI Certified for Safety & Reliability: The Apex 8 is ALI certified, which means it meets rigorous safety and performance standards. Whether you're storing cars or working on them, you can trust this lift to deliver the kind of stability that serious users expect—every single time.
  • Heavy-Duty Design: Weighing nearly 200 lbs more than similar models, this lift offers superior rigidity and less sway under load. The extra weight isn’t just a number—it’s your insurance for safer stacking and smoother lifting.
  • Portable, Freestanding Construction: No anchors? No problem. Thanks to the included caster kit with polyurethane wheels, the lift can be moved with ease. Perfect for homeowners or restorers who need garage flexibility.
  • Single-Point Lock Release System: Easily engage or disengage all four locks with a single lever. It’s a time-saving feature that makes operating the lift quick and intuitive—even for first-timers.
  • Double Lock Safety System: A backup lock automatically engages if the primary one fails, giving you peace of mind every time the lift goes up. It’s one of those “just in case” systems that you’ll be glad you have.
  • All-Inclusive Accessory Package: Steel ramps, wheel chocks, wheel stops, and a jack tray-compatible design—all included. Everything you need to start stacking or servicing the moment it's set up.

Shipping Policy

  • Large items ship via commercial freight carriers using 53-foot enclosed tractor-trailers. Please ensure your delivery address is a legitimate business location that can accommodate this size vehicle. Residential addresses, farms, and limited-access locations (e.g., schools, storage units, government facilities) may incur additional charges.

Delivery Access

  • The truck must have clear access in and out of your property.
  • We cannot ship to vague locations (e.g., “end of Sam’s Club parking lot”) or addresses that require passing through gates or checkpoints without prior coordination.
  • If a semi cannot access the location, delivery will be delayed or denied.

Unloading Responsibilities

  • Customers are 100% responsible for unloading the shipment. You will need a forklift, skid steer, rollback wrecker, or similar equipment. The truck driver will not help unload, and disassembly inside the trailer is not permitted for safety and insurance reasons.
  • Liftgate service is available for lighter items (under 1,000 lbs) for an additional fee, but most heavy equipment, especially lifts, cannot be unloaded by liftgate.

Scheduling and Communication

  • Most freight carriers offer a free 24-hour call-ahead when the product reaches the terminal near you. Make sure we have a cell or work number on file to avoid missed calls and delays.
  • “Call when 30 minutes away” requests cannot be guaranteed.
  • Missed appointments may delay delivery and require rescheduling at the carrier’s discretion.

Freight Terminal Pickup or Alternate Delivery

  • If you can’t unload at your location, we can ship to a local freight terminal for pickup.
  • Alternatively, consider shipping to a friend’s business that has unloading equipment. Ensure they know how to inspect for damage and note it properly.

Inspection & Freight Damage

  • Inspect the shipment before signing the delivery receipt. If there is damage, note it clearly on the bill of lading and take photos.
  • Failure to note visible damage may forfeit your right to file a freight claim.
  • All freight-related damage or shortages must be reported within 24 hours of delivery.

Self-Arranged Freight

  • Customers using their own freight carrier must:
    • Provide a Bill of Lading
    • Be available 10 AM – 4 PM EST for truck loading
    • Accept that skid and brace fees ($20–$30) may apply for packaging safety

Returns & Cancellations

  • If you’re not satisfied with your purchase, please contact us within 10 days of purchase for return or exchange authorization.
  • Return Conditions:
    • All returns must be pre-approved in writing.
    • Items must be new, uninstalled, and in original packaging.
    • Buyer is responsible for return shipping costs.
    • All returns are subject to a 15% restocking fee.

  • Cancellations:
    • A 5% cancellation fee applies to any order that has been processed but not yet shipped.
    • We do not issue refunds for unauthorized returns.

Warranty Policy

  • Most of our products come with a 1-Year Limited Warranty covering structural, hydraulic, and electrical components (where applicable). Wear items like belts, pads, and hoses are covered under a 90-day warranty.
  • What’s Covered:
    • Defects in materials or workmanship under normal use.
    • Coverage applies to the original purchaser only.
    • Parts will be repaired or replaced at our discretion.
  • What’s Not Covered:
    • Labor or shipping for warranty work.
    • Normal wear and tear items.
    • Equipment damaged by misuse, improper installation, neglect, or unauthorized repairs.
    • Equipment not maintained according to manufacturer guidelines.
