does everyone have their lift bolted to the floor ? I didn't because I wasn't certain on which bay yet and thought about potentially moving it. but now its set and I'm debating whether to have it bolted in but don't know how difficult it will be.

My bendpak 4 post is not bolted down. Have a castor kit to move it around. I see zero reason to bolt it down. Bendpak says it is fine not to so I trust their recommendation.
Very informative thread. I am now considering joining the club by purchasing a Benpack HD9. My question relates to width through. Am planning on parking a 991 RS and a 997 RS. Is the HD-9ST (Narrow) good enough or did you guys go for the HD-9 (wide/XL or XW)?
Thanks
Sound advice is to get the biggest lift your garage can reasonably accommodate.
I was about to ask if anyone has tried this one yet? I see tones of adds peppered across that car magazines (e.g. Autoweek). Looks like a good solution for low ceiling garages.
I will be ordering my 5th lift in the next two months as I am in the midst of reconstructing my house and constructing a new detached garage. Two lifts ago, I ordered a 9st (narrow) for my garage...which was a mistake. My wife was a little bit intimidated driving between the columns but more importantly I will never forget the series of expletives that came out of my mouth when I pierced the sidewall on my Cayenne rubbing against the hanger piece..destroying the tire. If you have the room, opt for the standard width for sure. Was always happy with the Bendpak products though and their distributor in Canada.
Great, thanks. My concern is my wife parking her SUV next to the lift. The lift will be used for the P cars only. total entry width is 216' out of which the wide lift will take 111'
I just had a very basic Atlas Garage Pro 8000 installed in my track garage. If anyone is interested in that lift, just PM me with questions. Happy to help if I can.
Looks cool, but how are you supposed to get out of your car on the bottom. Does not look like the car door will open much at all.
I had the same thought. Does anyone have one? I got pricing on it today...more than my HD9...but i like the low entry angle for the GT3...and if I put my air cooled car on the top level, will contain any leaks...and even if a car is dripping after driving in rain or snow....it won't be dripping on the car below.
