Thinking about adding a clear floor lift to my barn to make working on things easier. I have about 12' of ceiling height.

What lift are you guys running? Tips and tricks?

I'm sure most lifts recommend 6"+ of concrete, and I highly doubt my barn floor (built before I bought it) has anything more than 4". My plan was to acquire some street plating to place underneath the columns to spread out the load.

Thoughts?

Current house does not have the ceiling height I wanted... so I have been using a MaxJax

You do not have that problem... I would go with a two-post asymmetric lift... That is what I am doing in the new house. Can't wait to finalize the move...

It looks so nice. I hope it can easily carry the heavy loads.

I would cut the concrete squares or circles where the posts go and pour thicker concrete.

Single post lift. I like that I can move it out of the way when not in use.
