Overview
The BendPak PL-6KDTX is an extra-wide tandem parking lift engineered to convert a standard two-car garage into a four-car storage facility. Featuring dual independent platforms with 6,000-lb capacity each, this four-post lift provides a total lifting capacity of 12,000 lbs. The extended-width design (250" overall) positions columns farther from the platforms, ensuring wide-clearance vehicles like trucks and SUVs can easily navigate the structure without mirror or door interference. Each platform is independently suspended by aircraft-quality steel cables and powered by dual hydraulic cylinders, allowing one vehicle to be lowered while the other remains elevated, eliminating the need to shuffle cars for access.
