The BendPak HD-9STX does not. It squeezes down to 89.75\" between the columns and a 76.5\" drive-thru clearance, yet it still raises to 82\" of rise and 86.5\" maximum lifting height on 188\" runways. That is the specific trade this model refuses to make, and it is the reason to look at it rather than a shorter narrow lift.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eWill It Fit?\u003c\/h2\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCeiling first — this is the model that fails on height, not width.\u003c\/strong\u003e The columns are 100\" tall. Add the height of anything you intend to park on the raised runways to the 86.5\" maximum lifting height and check the total against your lowest overhead obstruction, not your highest ceiling point. Garage door tracks and openers are the usual surprise.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFloor.\u003c\/strong\u003e Overall width is 110.25\" and outside length is 198\"; overall length including the approach ramps is 224\".

A wide-body pickup measured mirror-to-mirror can exceed that drive-thru figure. Measure your widest vehicle at its widest point — usually the mirrors, sometimes the bed flares — before you order a narrow lift.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRunways and wheelbase.\u003c\/strong\u003e Runways are 19\" wide and 188\" long, set 37.5\" apart, with a 56.5\" centerline and outside edges at 75.5\". Minimum wheelbase at the full rating is 135\"; shorter wheelbases are handled at reduced capacity — 115\" at 75%, 95\" at 50%, and 80\" at 25%. That derating is not a formality. A short vehicle puts its whole mass near the middle of the runway span, which is the worst place for it.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower.\u003c\/strong\u003e 220 VAC \/ 60 Hz \/ 1 Ph.

Read the site-requirements section of the installation manual and have an electrician sign off on the circuit.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eWhy a Narrow Lift Is Not a Weaker Lift\u003c\/h2\u003e  \u003cp\u003eRated capacity is 9,000 lbs, with a per-axle limit of 4,500 lbs front and 4,500 lbs rear. Reducing width does not reduce those numbers, because the load path in a four-post lift runs through the columns and the cables, not through the gap between them. What narrowing does change is which vehicles physically fit — a constraint of geometry, not of strength.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe lifting mechanism is a single hydraulic cylinder mounted underneath the runway, with heavy-duty 3\/8\" aircraft cable running the load through four columns. The cables, safety locks and sheaves are fully enclosed inside the structure. On a narrow lift this is worth more than it sounds: with less space between the columns, exposed hardware would be exactly where a door edge or a mirror passes. Enclosure keeps the mechanism away from the vehicle and the grit away from the cable.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eCable rollers are oversized and self-lubricating, running on 1.25\" roller axles. Internal anti-sway slider blocks in each column control carriage rock — the movement you notice when you lean on a raised vehicle, and the movement a narrower frame would otherwise show more of.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eFifteen Lock Positions, One Release\u003c\/h2\u003e  \u003cp\u003eEach column carries multi-position safety locks on adjustable lock ladders, giving 15 locking positions spaced every 4\". On a lift that is often chosen for stacked parking in a tight garage, that 4\" granularity is the feature that lets you set the upper vehicle at precisely the height your ceiling permits instead of settling for the next lock down.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eOnce set, the mechanical locks carry the vehicle — not the hydraulics. Release is a push-button pneumatic control acting on all four columns together, so you are not walking the lift down one corner at a time. Independent backup slack-cable safety latches engage if a cable loses tension, which is the failure that would otherwise let one carriage drop while the other three hold.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eRamps, Runways and Storage Options\u003c\/h2\u003e  \u003cp\u003eMinimum runway height is 5\", and the approach ramps are removable to add drive-under clearance when the lift is down. Longer approach ramps are available for low-ground-clearance vehicles; the shallower angle is what keeps a front splitter off the ramp edge. Optional drive-thru ramps let you exit forward rather than reverse — genuinely useful in a narrow bay where reversing is awkward.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch2\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h2\u003e  \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eTall, narrow home garages.\u003c\/strong\u003e The case this lift was designed for: limited floor width, generous ceiling.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eShops adding a bay without adding a building.\u003c\/strong\u003e A narrow lift fits where a standard-width one will not, and this one keeps the working height.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eCar collectors stacking two vehicles\u003c\/strong\u003e in a single-width bay, using the 4\" lock spacing to make the most of available ceiling.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eOwners of narrower vehicles\u003c\/strong\u003e — sports cars, sedans, compact trucks — who want service capability rather than storage alone.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/h2\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe lift arrives as a freestanding four-post assembly: four columns, runways with the rail kit, the electric-hydraulic power unit with a customizable mounting position, cables, locks and removable approach ramps.
