SCISSOR & LOW-RISE LIFTS

Compact lifting for fast, flexible service.

Scissor and low-rise lifts support tire, brake, body and express-service work while preserving flexibility in space-conscious bays.

What is it?

Scissor and low-rise lifts use crossed lifting arms beneath platforms or pads. They create a compact service station for tire, brake, body and quick-service work, with rise heights ranging from portable low-rise units to full-height systems. Heavy-duty inground scissor systems can also serve buses, trucks and fleet vehicles.

How it works

Hydraulic cylinders open the scissor assemblies and raise the vehicle from pads, runways or manufacturer lifting points. The exact configuration determines working height, underbody access and whether the unit is surface-mounted or recessed.
