Autostacker is designed to be compact, making it easy to fit into tighter spaces. However, one potential drawback is the limited space available to open vehicle doors when a car is positioned front-first in the lower space. With an additional 8 inches of door clearance, the A6W addresses this concern by providing more room for entering and exiting.
Furthermore, the A6W creates a more spacious environment for loading vehicles on the top-level platform. Lower-level vehicles can smoothly enter an equally roomy parking space, safeguarded by Autostacker's scissor superstructures. This extra-wide version of Autostacker remains an ideal choice for home car lifts in tight spaces and garages, allowing homeowners to maintain a sleek, modern, and sophisticated appearance in their garages.
Commercial Use
In commercial parking lots and valets, versatility is key to accommodating a variety of vehicles, from commuter sedans and trucks to SUVs, classics, and exotics. When faced with limited space and tight parking, a series of parking lifts is essential. A broader lift offers commercial advantages for vehicles both on the raised platform and in the lower level.
The upper level provides more space for wide vehicles, while the lower level offers a significant benefit: additional door clearance. The PL-6SRX facilitates easier entry and exit for lower-level parked vehicles. Despite Autostacker's standard built-in rubber door protectors, the extra space further minimizes the risk of damaging a customer's vehicle door.
Home Use of a Wider Lift
Homeowners often struggle to find a home car lift that meets all their requirements. A lift must be compact, safe, efficient, and protective of vehicles. Many car collectors may not be mechanics, so home parking lifts need to be user-friendly and require minimal maintenance. Additionally, lift owners should be able to comfortably enter and exit their vehicles.
Low Maintenance
Autostacker is constructed with unwaveringly high-quality materials and rigorous engineering standards, offering simplicity in use. The PL-6SRX variant is wider than the original Autostacker, providing a more accommodating full-length, galvanized, and drip-proof loading platform for wide-body vehicles. With no cables to replace or maintain, the lift design ensures more time with zero scheduled maintenance.
Space-Efficient Extra-Wide Autostacker
Nothing is more disappointing than realizing your vehicles are slightly too wide for your Autostacker. It's equally frustrating to struggle with exiting wider vehicles. While wanting to save space, it's crucial not to compromise basic functionality.
The A6W intelligently balances the need to save space with the requirement to accommodate wider vehicles. Although the standard-size Autostacker is approximately the size of a parking space, our extra-wide model is only slightly larger, making a significant difference. This parking lift fits well in most home and commercial environments, retaining our patented collapsible design for maximum versatility, safety, and ease of use.
