									Most people own at least one or two cars for their family. Problems can arise when there isn&#8217;t enough space in your garage for more than one vehicle. You want to protect your investment from the elements, but if you don&#8217;t have the room in your garage, then an <a href="http://www.griceshopequipment.net/services/auto-lift-installation-repair.php">auto lift installation</a> is the perfect solution for you.<br><br>

<strong>Why you should buy a car lift for your garage:</strong><br><br>
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Protect Your Investment</strong></li>
</ul>
For every garage or workshop, a vehicle is a huge investment that needs protection. Your garage should be a safe space where your vehicle is protected from the elements, vandalism, and theft. All of your vehicles require equal protection, so if you don&#8217;t have the space in your garage for all of your vehicles, a car lift could be the solution you&#8217;re looking for. With the help of an auto lift, you can also prolong the life of your vehicles body and engine.
<ul>
 	<br><li><strong>Multiples Problems, One Solution</strong></li>
</ul>
If you have too many vehicles and not enough space to store them safely, auto lifts can help. Renovating your garage is an option, but often very costly. Installing a car lift for your garage is a easy, cost effective solution. A car lift creates a vertical space in your garage to store multiple vehicles, freeing up space in your garage for storage.<br><br>
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Easy Maintenance</strong></li>
</ul>
An auto lift will allow you to perform maintenance work on your car yourself with ease and safety. If you want to work underneath your car, lifting the vehicle rather that having to slide underneath it will make working on your car a lot more comfortable and less hazardous.<br><br>

</blockquote>
<ul><br>
 	<li><strong>Off-Season Storage For Your Expensive Vehicle</strong></li>
</ul>
Once you have purchased a vehicle, you need to maintain and protect your investment for long-term use. During the winter when there is snow, keeping your car in the streets will affect your vehicle and its performance. The extreme cold can damage your car and its engine. A car lift can prevent damage to your car by providing a space for the vehicle in your garage.<br><br>
<ul>
 	<li><strong>Multi-Purpose</strong></li>
</ul>
Installing an auto lift is not only useful for cars, but also for vans and trucks in your workshop or garage. They can easily hold the weight of these larger vehicles. You can also use it to store your snow blowers, motorcycles, and other equipment as well.								</div>

									You can provide quality to customers only by following proper safety in the workplace. When lifting heavy-duty trucks, the employee safety is extremely important. If the equipment is operated correctly, injuries can be avoided while lifting the trucks. A well-designed automated lift makes it easier to hoist and work on a truck, especially for heavy vehicles, rather than trying to work on the truck while it&#8217;s on the ground. However, you have to be careful when operating an auto lift.

<em><strong>You can follow these expert safety tips:</strong></em>

<h2 class="cust-subti">Choose Trusted Lifts</h2>

Safety begins when choosing an auto lift for your heavy vehicles. You must select an <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a style="color: #0000ff;" href="http://www.griceshopequipment.net/">auto lift installation company</a></span> that meets ANSI/ALI safety standards. These trusted companies always carry an ALI certified label, which indicates that it has been tested to meet safety and performance standards.

									You always inspect vehicles based on the issues they&#8217;re facing, and you repair different vehicles to satisfy your customers’ needs accordingly. The same applies to your auto lifts. Before you lift your vehicle, there are certain steps that vehicle lift buyers and operators should follow to ensure safety.

Now the question is, how will you come to know that an auto lift is ready and safe to use for your customer’s vehicle? Well, there are certain things you should discuss with your lift safety experts. We&#8217;ve researched some of the main points that your <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a style="color: #0000ff;" href="http://www.griceshopequipment.net/">auto lift installation and repair company</a></span> should consider to keep your customers happy with your auto lift repair services.

<h2 class="cust-subti">1. The Lift Should Be ALI-Certified</h2>

It&#8217;s a must that you verify whether the lift is certified by the Automotive Lift Institute (ALI) or not. The main benefits of an ALI-certified lift are:
<ul>
 	<li>It meets stringent safety standards;</li>
 	<li>Each component is scrutinized and physically tested;</li>
 	<li>Excellent warranty coverage;</li>
 	<li>Long-term support and easy access to heavy vehicles;</li>
</ul>
Testing includes the detailed verification of the structural integrity of all the lifts’ systems and components. This includes proper controls, load-holding device functionality, proper lowering speeds, and overload protection.

<h2 class="cust-subti">2. Select Lifts According to the Vehicle</h2>

While lifting, the height and weight of the vehicle matter the most. A trained automotive professional can easily make out the build of that particular vehicle and make sure that the experts select the specific lift for the vehicle that can meet capacity and certifications. Also, you need to ensure that there&#8217;s sufficient room to raise a vehicle for servicing so that the technician can work properly underneath the vehicle.

<h3 class="cust-subti">3. Get Annual Inspections</h3>

For inspection, make sure that you hire an ALI-certified inspector. An ALI inspection label gives a person the trust and confidence that every lift has been properly examined and has passed with a comprehensive quality assurance system. While doing annual lift inspections, all shop technicians should be qualified and trained enough to operate the lifts.
<blockquote><span style="color: red; font-size: 22px;"><strong><a href="http://www.griceshopequipment.net/blog/auto-lifts-optimize-car-storage/">How Auto Lifts Optimize Car Storage</a></strong></span></blockquote>
<h3 class="cust-subti">4. Use Approved Adapters</h3>

Professionally, it&#8217;s great to use approved adapters made by the manufacturer for your lift. Using any other adapter can make things difficult for the auto lift installers. Some DIY adapters may even cause imbalance and incorrect distribution of weight and pressure. All these factors can damage the auto lift and vehicle’s condition like breakage, excessive wear and tear and dropped vehicles.

<h3 class="cust-subti">5. Get Your Lift Inspections with a Certified Inspector</h3>

Your vehicle lift inspections can help protect your automotive workshop, home garage, or dealership. ALI-certified lift inspectors are the only professionals who are tested by the Automotive Lift Institute and proven qualified to inspect vehicle lifts. ALI-certified inspectors follow a standardized procedure that a non-certified inspector might miss. They provide written reports with any repair recommendations labeled by date for each inspection lift, so that everyone can know when the inspection took place.

									Although modern car lifts have been designed for easy, safe, and comfortable use, car lifts may be a curse if used incorrectly for different auto equipment in various industries. Lack of training, rushing the operation, operator error, and neglected maintenance may result in lift-related accidents. Ultimately, productivity and the quality of the workshops will get affected. A vehicle falling from a lift can also result in serious bodily injury, property damage, and liability claims if the car lifts are not handled and maintained properly.

It&#8217;s always a dangerous process to operate auto lifts without proper safety training. Also, to avoid major auto lifts accidents, you should follow manufacturer and facility safety guidelines at all times. Here are some helpful basic car lift safety tips to help prevent a dangerous mishap.
<ol>
 	<li>You should inspect your vehicle lift daily. We recommend not operating damaged or broken lifts.</li>
 	<li>It&#8217;s a must to know your vehicle&#8217;s weight limit. Don’t overload your lift as it can cause damage. Generally, you can find the manufactures’ rated capacity on the nameplate.</li>
 	<li>Only hire and allow trained professionals to operate the automotive lift to provide quality vehicle services to your customers.</li>
 	<li>During operation, non-operators should not be allowed to enter in the lift area. They should be strictly under the authority of trained professionals.</li>
 	<li>Be aware of the hazards involved with lifting vehicles.</li>
 	<li>Different car lift brands have different features, and so they need different safety precautions. Thus, it&#8217;s always better to read the manual before you start using the hoist.</li>
 	<li>Whenever you buy a new lift, always look for the ALI lift certification label. It&#8217;s proof that the car lift has meet all industry safety and performance standards.</li>
 	<li>You should not expect a single lift arm to bear excessive weight of all vehicles. This is especially true for vehicles that have uneven weight distribution between their front and rear axles.</li>
 	<li>You can find many safety features in a high-quality car lift, for example, arm restraints, wheel chocks, and anti-sway blocks. However, these safety features will be of no use if they&#8217;re not engaged. So, you should see that you use your car lift safety features before starting work on the vehicle.</li>
 	<li>Sometimes, the installation of components can cause a major shift in the vehicle’s center of gravity that can result in instability.</li>
</ol>
An easy way to maintain your car lift is to service it on time from an experienced auto lifts repair service professional.

									Whenever you get flat on your back to repair a car in your home garage, you have to make an extra effort with blind hands and grasp tools that may have rolled just beyond your reach. These techniques during car repairs not only provide discomfort, they create a time-consuming process. Every time you have to carefully jack each end of the car to ensure proper tire inspections, you&#8217;re wasting time. Due to exasperating situations like these, you could frequently delay your maintenance process, which is a huge setback for every vehicle in your garage.

									Auto lifts are one of the most essential pieces of automotive equipment that help in storing and repairing a vehicle easily. Auto lifts provide safety to mechanics working underneath a vehicle that&#8217;s elevated with the help of auto lifts. These reasons already are good enough for you to have them in your professional workshop or home garage. If you usually work on vehicles, then auto lifts are a must-have unit of <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a style="color: #0000ff;" href="http://www.griceshopequipment.net/blog/reliable-automotive-equipment-installer-ma/">automotive equipment</a></span> for you. If you have multiple vehicles and need space in your shop or garage, automotive lifts can also optimize your car storage.

Since car lifts optimize car storage, you can store one of your cars on one side of the garage by lifting it up to an appropriate height and storing your other car just below it. This will create space on the other side of a home garage which you can use it to store bikes, lawn mowers, or any other equipment or tools. Many people install bike racks on the side walls of a garage that are designed to hang bicycles. This also helps to utilize wall space. You can even hang your other light tools and garage equipment on the side walls. This way you can create a garage that looks neat, clean, and organized.

If you have an old car that needs to be restored but you only have a small garage space, then you should definitely install a car lift so that your vintage car can be fixed. When you&#8217;re not working on your vintage car, you can lift it up and park another car below. This way, you can take better advantage of your garage space. Car lifts are a lot cheaper than reconstructing or enlarging your entire garage, and car lifts are also a lot cheaper than allowing your car to stay out in the harsh weather and get ruined. When your car is parked in a garage, it takes up a majority of the available space and makes it hard to move around. Some people don&#8217;t use their garage space efficiently and instead keep their vehicles outside. Keeping your car outside the garage is risky and can attract burglars. This can also harm your vehicle through harsh weather conditions.

If you&#8217;re looking for someone who can install auto lifts in your professional workshop or home garage, Gary Rice Equipment &amp; Service is the right company for the job.

									Auto lifts are a vital necessity for car showrooms, car garages, car storage areas, parking driveways, and fast lube stations. It&#8217;s easier to hoist large vehicles with the help of auto lifts. Repairing, replacing, adjusting, or removing oil from a vehicle becomes simpler for car mechanics by accessing underneath the vehicles. You can optimize garage space by using auto lifts.

Space is a primary concern in parking yards, car storage areas, garages, and car repair shops. You can store vehicles and save floor space with auto lifts. It&#8217;s important to plan car parking before opening a professional automotive workshop or home garage. <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a style="color: #0000ff;" href="http://www.griceshopequipment.net/blog/types-of-automotive-lifts-available-get-one-that-meets-your-needs/">Automotive lifts</a></span> have become the most important tool for a professional automotive workshop or home garage.

Here are some of the benefits of owning an auto lift.

<h2 class="cust-subti">1. Protects your investment:</h2>
Your vehicle is a prized possession and a valuable investment. Protect your investment by parking it inside your garage, which has many benefits:
<ul>
 	<li>Vehicles that are parked inside your garage are protected from burglary and vandalism.</li>
 	<li>Parking your vehicle in a garage helps protect the paint and cleanliness of your vehicle.</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="cust-subti">2. Optimizes your garage space:</h2>
Most homes have a one-car garage. If your family has two cars, then you won&#8217;t be able to park your cars in a one-car garage. In this case, you won&#8217;t be able to enjoy the benefits of having garage storage. With the help of an auto lift, you can park your second car below your first car.

<h3 class="cust-subti">3. Off-season garage storage:</h3>
Regions in the US with cold winters don&#8217;t have ideal weather conditions for operating classic cars or high-end sports cars. If you have limited garage storage space, you can use an auto lift to store your prized vehicle until warmer weather arrives. This saves on costly expenses like yearly fees for keeping your dream car in an off-site storage facility.

<h3 class="cust-subti">4. Vehicle maintenance is much easier:</h3>
If you&#8217;re one of those people who enjoys fixing their own vehicle, you&#8217;ll appreciate the versatility of an auto lift. Maintaining and repairing the underside of your vehicle becomes much easier with the help of an auto lift. If you&#8217;re planning to work underneath your vehicle, make sure to purchase an auto lift of a well-known brand. They&#8217;re both reliable and safe.

<h3 class="cust-subti">5. An auto lift isn&#8217;t just for cars:</h3>
This amazing automotive equipment can store much more than just sedans. Auto lifts with high weight capacity can hold larger vehicles like SUVs, vans, and pickup trucks. They can also be used to store motorcycles, lawn mowers, snow blowers, or snowmobiles during off-seasons.

If you want to install or repair automotive lifts and are looking for an <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a style="color: #0000ff;" href="http://www.griceshopequipment.net">automotive installation and repair company in MA</a></span>, contact Gary Rice Equipment &amp; Service today!

									Buying a classic car bestows a sense of pride and love. Owning them is often called as a labor of love. You need to always keep your beautiful car at its peak appearance, condition, and performance. Since classic cars are valuable and rare, maintaining them requires <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a style="color: #0000ff;" href="http://www.griceshopequipment.net/portfolio.php">professional automotive equipment</a></span>, especially auto lifts for installation and repairs. Classic car enthusiasts should keep car lifts and other garage equipment in their home garage to install, repair, and restore their vehicles. Casual mechanics keep their classic cars as competitive as possible for car shows or road demonstrations for fun drives or just to grab people&#8217;s attention. All classic car owners whose beautiful cars are almost 25 years old prefer auto lifts to maintain them. The repairs made on them are unique and often require auto lifts to access damaged parts that need to be repaired, replaced, or refurbished.

<strong>Some common changes that may take place in a classic car are replacements in rear-end, exhaust system, transmission, and brake system.</strong>

<h2 class="cust-subti">1. Changes in Rear-End</h2>
Changing the rear-end of your classic car affects handling and safety. Changing the rear differential to a different ratio may improve mileage and acceleration. The process of accessing the differential and connected parts becomes easier and faster when mechanics work on classic cars beneath an auto lift.

<h2 class="cust-subti">2. Changes in Exhaust System</h2>
Making changes to the exhaust system is not only about replacing a dull stainless steel exhaust tip with a shiny new chrome one. The exhaust systems of many classic cars run across nearly the entire length of the vehicle. To replace or make any changes in the exhaust system of the classic car, auto lifts make these replacements and changes faster, safer, and more comfortable for the weekend warriors. It&#8217;s vital to make sure that the replacement pieces are properly installed, bent, and don&#8217;t interfere with or rub against any other parts.

<h3 class="cust-subti">3. Changes in Brakes</h3>
Brake systems have evolved and are different today from how they were decades ago. Many classic car owners have changed their cars&#8217; drum brakes to disc brakes for a better braking system that ensures better safety. This usually involves changing the proportioning value, which is time-consuming and difficult to install. With the help of auto lifts, changing the proportioning value becomes easier and faster.

<h3 class="cust-subti">4. Changes in Transmission</h3>
Most transmissions need to be changed or rebuilt after running a total of 100,000 miles. Classic cars that run an average of 10,000 miles per year might require a new transmission. Changing the transmission becomes easier and hassle-free by using the right automotive equipment and auto lifts.

									Are you having trouble deciding if you need a 2-post lift or a 4-post lift? Perhaps you&#8217;re just unsure of all the differences between them. Buying the right car lift can help you increase efficiency and savings in your shop. Most importantly, you should buy your car lifts from a reliable manufacturer.

Whether you&#8217;re a hobbyist or an automotive professional, your work needs maximum garage space. If you&#8217;re thinking about installing lifts, you should ask yourself: do I need
a <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a style="color: #0000ff;" href="http://www.griceshopequipment.net/blog/which-type-of-auto-lift-is-right-for-you/">2-post lift or a 4-post lift</a></span>?
<h2 class="cust-subti">1. When to choose a 2-post lift?</h2>

2-post automotive lifts are best for repairing tires, brakes, and suspensions. An arm is attached from each post lift to the center of the vehicle. This enables you to access and repair vehicles safely and comfortably.
A 2-post lift is a versatile piece of equipment, making it perfect for small cars and most residential garages.
<h3 class="cust-subti">2. When to choose a 4 post lift?</h3>
4-post automotive lifts are built for parking and storage. They carry and stabilize all four wheels on the lift, which lets you safely park one car on top of another. With these types of lifts, you can drive onto the lift, raise it with a touch of a button, and park another car below.

<strong>3. Which is the best lift for me?</strong>

When it comes to purchasing a lift, there are two important factors: price and purpose. You should first be familiar with your budget. Then, you need to identify the situation in which you&#8217;ll use your lift, like whether you&#8217;re interested in repairing or storing your vehicle.

If you want to regularly service your car by yourself, then a 2-post lift is the right choice for you. You can also use a 2-post lift to store one car at a time. If you want a lift that&#8217;s more specialized for storage purposes, then a 4-post lift is more appropriate. It&#8217;ll also be more ideal for servicing your car.

As an added benefit, you can get the benefits of both types of lifts by purchasing a 4-post lift and a separate sliding jack. These two pieces of equipment can be bundled together to save cost.

If you&#8217;re unable to decide which <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a style="color: #0000ff;" href="http://www.griceshopequipment.net/services/auto-lift-installation-repair.php">automotive lift</a></span> to choose, then consult Gary Rice Equipment &amp; Service.
