2-POST LIFTS
Vehicle service without compromise
Whether for your own garage, professional vehicle workshop or in a factory workshop, at Kroemer you will find a wide selection of hydraulic, mechanical and electro-hydraulic 2-post lifts with various load capacities, spindle systems and support arms.
A 2 post lift is one of the most essential pieces of equipment in a modern workshop. It enables vehicles to be lifted safely and provides optimal access to the undercarriage, allowing mechanics to work comfortably beneath the vehicle. Whether for automotive workshops, professional workshop use, or the private garage—a high-quality two-post automotive lift impresses with sturdy support arms, high load capacity, and precise positioning at the vehicle’s lifting points. Depending on the model, hydraulic lifts or screw jacks with 230 V or 400 V power supply are available. This ensures that various requirements in daily workshop operations can be reliably met.

General Information about 2-post car lifts
What are the differences between the two-post car lifts?
There is a wide range of 2-post car lifts to choose from. Differences include:
- Load capacity (e.g. 3.2 to 5.5 tonnes)
- Drive type: hydraulic or mechanical (spindle operation)
- Support arms: 2-stage or 3-stage telescopic, symmetrical or asymmetrical
- Base frame: with or without
- Safety equipment: e.g. safety catches, limit switches, heavy-duty anchors
- Power supply: 230 V or 400 V (high-voltage current)
There is an extremely wide range of robust car lifts to choose from. On the one hand, the 2-post lifts differ in their load capacity. For example, there are lifts with a load capacity of 4 to 5.5 tonnes. These values give an insight into the stability of the lift on offer. However, more important than the load capacity is the ability to lock the support arms, as the user wants to use the car lift to raise both vehicles with a short wheelbase (e.g. Smart) and those with a long wheelbase (T6, V-Class, Sprinter).
There are 2-fold and 3-fold telescopic support arms, the latter allowing for greater flexibility in terms of possible uses. No one uses a car lift with four support arms, all of which are double telescopic, if it can lift a T6 but not a BMW 3 Series because the wheelbase is too short to reach the lifting points. This is why buyers need to pay particular attention to this aspect.

How does a 2-post lift work?
Differences between hydraulic and mechanical 2-post lifts
In the hydraulic 2-post car lift, an electric motor ensures that the hydraulic oil is pumped under pressure into two cylinders, which lift the lifting carriage. This hydraulically operated car lift is particularly robust, low-maintenance and ideal for daily workshop use.
In the mechanical version, on the other hand, power is transmitted via a spindle that moves the vehicle upwards by means of a screw drive. This solution is particularly durable and offers precise control, safety and efficiency for your workshop.
How much does a 2-post lift weigh?
Depending on the model, equipment and material, the weight ranges between 500 kg and 900 kg. Models with a base frame, heavier support arms or additional safety technology may be even heavier.
How much does a 2-post lift cost?
Prices vary depending on the model, load capacity, hydraulic system and equipment. Entry-level models start at around £1,699, while professional car lifts with a 5-year warranty and extensive equipment range from £2,000 to £4,000.
