CHALLENGER LIFTS CL4P9SP Aluminum Storage Platform Set (Set Of 4)
Challenger Lifts CL4P9SP - Set of 4 Aluminum Storage Platforms
The Challenger Lifts CL4P9SP is a set of four aluminum storage platforms engineered exclusively for CL4P9 Series four-post lifts. The platforms create a stable storage surface between the runways, enabling DIY users and shop owners to maximize vertical space while keeping workspace accessible below.
Key Features & Benefits
CL4P9-Specific Fitment Design
These platforms are engineered exclusively for the Challenger CL4P9 Series lifts, resting securely within the runway channels without requiring modification, adjustment, or additional hardware. The integrated mounting design ensures stable load distribution across all four platforms.
Precision fitment eliminates compatibility guesswork common with generic garage shelving. Each platform maintains consistent position and support, which is critical when storing heavy equipment or seasonal items above active workspace.
This enables safe, reliable storage setup without installation labor or special expertise. The platforms integrate seamlessly with existing CL4P9 lift infrastructure, creating a cohesive mezzanine-style storage system.
1,000 lbs Capacity per Platform
Each individual platform supports 1,000 lbs of static load, delivering substantial capacity for heavy tools, equipment, ATVs, or seasonal inventory. The four-platform set totals 4,000 lbs combined capacity when distributed across the entire runway length.
This capacity range exceeds typical consumer garage shelving alternatives, enabling storage of equipment and materials that standard metal racks cannot safely handle. Industrial-duty static load rating means platforms handle sustained weight without deflection or sagging over time.
This makes the system suitable for shops storing engines, transmissions, compressors, lawn equipment, motorcycles, and other high-mass items that require reliable, long-term support.
Lightweight Aluminum Construction
The platforms are engineered from lightweight aluminum alloy that resists corrosion in garage environments, eliminating rust formation and surface degradation. Aluminum construction simplifies platform placement, removal, or repositioning without requiring special equipment or multiple people.
Traditional steel storage solutions require protective coatings or finishes that degrade with moisture and temperature cycling. Aluminum naturally resists oxidation, making these platforms suitable for indoor garages with varying humidity and seasonal temperature swings.
This enables users to reposition platforms seasonally or modify their storage configuration without difficulty, extending system lifespan and maintaining structural integrity across years of use.
163 Inches of Storage Coverage
The complete set spans approximately 163 inches across all four platforms, creating a continuous storage surface that maximizes usable volume between lift runways. This extensive coverage accommodates large or multiple stored items simultaneously.
Traditional four-post lift systems offer runway lengths that limit storage options. The 163-inch platform span creates true mezzanine-style storage, enabling side-by-side placement of multiple vehicles, equipment racks, or shelving systems in a single layer.
This transforms the area between runways from unused vertical space into productive storage real estate, increasing effective garage capacity without expanding building footprint or requiring structural modifications.
Applications & Use Cases
- DIY Garages & Home Shops: Store lawn equipment, hand tools, seasonal items, or recreational vehicles (ATVs, motorcycles, small utility trailers) above working workspace.
- Automotive Service Facilities: Create dedicated storage for engines, transmissions, drivetrain components, or finished assemblies while servicing vehicles below.
- Garage Organization: Maximize vertical space in compact garages where floor area is limited, enabling storage of multiple categories of equipment simultaneously.
- Seasonal Equipment Storage: Store lawn care equipment (mowers, trimmers, blowers), seasonal decorations, or winter gear without sacrificing garage floor access.
- Dual-Use Lift Operations: Keep one vehicle on the lift for service work while maintaining storage above for tools, supplies, or secondary equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum weight capacity of the CL4P9SP platforms?
Each platform supports 1,000 lbs of static load. The complete four-platform set provides 4,000 lbs total capacity when weight is distributed across all platforms. This capacity applies to static (non-moving) loads only; platforms are not designed for dynamic or impact loading.
How much storage space do the four platforms create?
The complete set spans approximately 163 inches across all four platforms, creating a continuous storage surface between the lift runways. This enables side-by-side placement of multiple items or creates a true mezzanine-style storage layer above your working area.
Which Challenger lift models are compatible with the CL4P9SP?
The CL4P9SP platforms are designed exclusively for the CL4P9 Series, including the CL4P9S, CL4P9X, and CL4P9W models. Platforms will not fit other lift series and should not be used with non-compatible lifts. Contact our sales team to verify compatibility if you're uncertain about your lift model.
Do the platforms require tools to install?
No. The platforms are engineered for tool-free installation and rest directly in the runway channels of CL4P9 Series lifts. No bolts, fasteners, or special hardware are required. Platforms can be positioned or repositioned quickly without equipment or professional installation labor.
What materials are the platforms made from?
The CL4P9SP platforms are manufactured from lightweight, corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy. Aluminum naturally resists rust and oxidation, making the platforms suitable for garage environments with varying humidity and seasonal temperature changes. The lightweight construction enables easy repositioning or removal without special equipment.
What warranty coverage is included with the CL4P9SP?
The platforms include a 1-year limited warranty covering defects in materials or workmanship. Product registration is recommended within 30 days of purchase to document the warranty period. The warranty applies to the original purchaser and is non-transferable. Contact our sales team for specific warranty claim procedures and registration details.
Can I store vehicles or equipment above the platforms while working on a vehicle below?
Yes. The CL4P9SP platforms enable dual-use scenarios where you maintain one vehicle or equipment on the lift for service work while storing tools, spare parts, or secondary items on the platforms above. Weight distribution should remain within the 1,000 lb per platform capacity. Contact our team to discuss your specific storage and work configuration.
