The Atlas® Platinum PVL10 EXT is an ALI certified 10,000 lb two-post lift with a height extension kit for buyers who want more overhead working range than the standard PVL10.
It supports symmetric or asymmetric installation, includes adapter heights, and uses 220V single-phase power for shops servicing cars, SUVs, and light trucks.
ALI Certified 10K Lift
The PVL10 EXT gives shops documented certification in a 10,000 lb Atlas® Platinum package.
Height Extension Kit
The extension-kit model raises the published overall height for shops that want more working room than the standard PVL10.
Symmetric or Asymmetric Install
The source lists both symmetric and asymmetric dimensions, letting the installer match the layout to vehicle access needs.
Adapter Heights Included
The 3 inch and 6 inch adapter heights support common truck and SUV pickup points.
Lower Concrete Minimum
The source lists a minimum 4 inch / 3000 PSI concrete requirement, but slab condition and local code still need verification.
