Stratus 14,000 lbs alignment scissor lift (SAE-FS14AP)
You're running a high-volume alignment bay and you need a rack that does more than just lift. The Stratus Commercial Grade 14,000 lbs alignment scissor lift is a full-rise, open-center scissor alignment lift built for shops that do real alignment work all day. Two turn plates, two bridge jacks, and a 213 9/16" platform mean you can pull wheels and set toe on full-size trucks without fighting for clearance.
The big advantage here is the open center. Most techs comparing a scissor lift alignment rack against a four post alignment lift want unobstructed access to the underbody, and that's exactly what this design gives you. No posts in the way, no columns blocking the bay. The dual bridge jacks let you raise the wheels off the runways so you can rotate tires, swap brakes, or service suspension without a separate floor jack.
Capacity tops out at 14,000 lbs, and the lift is proofed by dynamic testing at 115% of rated capacity and static testing at 150% of rated capacity. Whether you're running it as a dedicated wheel alignment scissor lift or a general-purpose service rack, this is a machine that earns its footprint. When you buy from Garage Supply Guys, you also get direct phone support before and after the sale, so you're not chasing a manufacturer for answers.

Installation & Setup
This is a freight-delivered alignment lift, and setup needs planning before the truck shows up. The motor runs on 3 HP, 110V or 220V, 60 HZ single-phase power, so confirm your bay has the right circuit before delivery. The lift installs two ways: in-ground flush mount for a clean floor that sits level with the bay, or on-ground surface mount when you'd rather bolt it down on top of an existing slab.
Plan your concrete and clearances around the footprint. The platform is 213 9/16" long and 64 15/16" wide, with a minimum height of 14 15/16" and a full lifting height of 82 11/16". The dual air cylinder safety structure pairs with four hydraulic cylinders, and a pneumatic safety lock release lets you drop the lift smoothly across its 11 lock positions.

Applications
Built as an alignment car lift with integrated turn plates, so you can set caster, camber, and toe without improvising a separate rack.
The open-center platform and dual bridge jacks make this a strong scissor lift for wheel alignment plus brakes, tires, and suspension work in the same bay.
The long platform handles full-size trucks and longer wheelbases that a shorter car alignment lift can't accommodate cleanly.
With 14,000 lbs of capacity, this scissor car lift covers the bulk of passenger, light-truck, and commercial work one machine can reasonably service.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between in-ground and on-ground mounting?
In-ground flush mount drops the lift into the floor so the platform sits level with your bay surface for a clean, trip-free workspace. On-ground surface mount bolts the lift on top of your existing slab, which is faster to install and easier to relocate. Both options ship standard with this model.
What kind of vehicles can this lift handle?
The lift is rated for 14,000 lbs and has a 213 9/16" long platform, so it covers passenger cars, light trucks, and longer-wheelbase vehicles that a shorter rack can't fit. As long as the vehicle stays under the rated capacity and within the platform length, you're good.
What are the bridge jacks for?
The two included bridge jacks let you raise the wheels off the runways while the lift stays up. That means you can rotate tires, service brakes, or work on suspension without a separate floor jack. It's a key reason shops pick this over a basic alignment rack.
What electrical power do I need?
The motor is a 3 HP single-phase unit that runs on 110V or 220V, 60 HZ. Confirm your bay has the correct circuit available before the lift is delivered so you can put it into service without delay.
How long does it take to raise a vehicle?
Full lift time is 72 seconds to a maximum height of 82 11/16". The minimum height is 14 15/16", so it sits low enough to drive most vehicles on without ramps catching.
Does the lift come with turn plates for alignment work?
Yes. Two turntable plates are included so you can perform wheel alignments right out of the box. Combined with the open-center platform, this makes it a true alignment scissor lift rather than a general service rack with add-ons.
How is this lift delivered, and what do I need to receive it?
It ships by LTL freight and can only go to a commercial address, local installer, or truck terminal. You're responsible for unloading, and freight carriers allow a 30 minute window before extra charges apply. Have equipment and help ready to offload the platform crates and control panel.
How safe is the lock system?
The lift uses a dual air cylinder safety structure with four hydraulic cylinders and 11 mechanical lock positions spaced 1 5/8" (42mm) apart. A pneumatic safety lock release lets you lower smoothly. It's also proofed by dynamic testing at 115% and static testing at 150% of rated capacity.
