New garage and lift...
Meant to put this in OT, not Tech.
Before - (1) car parking, (1) 60 watt light, (1) outlet.  After - (2) car parking, (1) 9000 lbs lift, 48 ft of light (+an extra 200 watts), 6 gallon 200psi compressor, (8) 110v outlets, (1) 220 outlet.

nice, my only bit of advice is to make a barrier underneath the car on the lift.....too many times i've seen the nice car below get oil dripped onto it......a simple tarp and bungees would work well and could be easily removed (if you haven't already)

Very nice! Thinking of putting one like that in my garage. What is your ceiling height?

Nice set up! I have a Revolution lift by Rotary. It was a toss up between that and the BendPak. I love how it looks in you garage! Nice work!

The garage door has high-lift rails and the opener is side-mounted. The overall door drop when open is 6".
