I had a BendPak scissor lift in my last garage and had no issues. We are just wrapping up a new construction garage, (44W X 36'D) and we went with a 12' 6" ceiling, 4300 PSI concrete 6" thick. We installed another BendPak scissor lift in this garage. We were realistic about capabilities at our age (my brother and I) and figured that would handle our needs. Takes cars up to about 46" and the two ramps are wide enough to roll under the entire car in the center as you can choose where to install the ramps. We checked measurements for all of our cars and selected a width that works for everything.

I know you don't want to recess your lift due to water concerns, but we did sink both of the scissor lifts and it really makes a difference. When they are down, they are flush with the floor and do not get in the way. If they have not poured your garage floor, just add a drain, install a 2" chase in the floor going to the back of the garage for the hydraulic lines and put the hydraulic components in a cabinet. Maximize your space and life will be easier. Good luck.
