Atlas® PV12PX — 12,000 lbs 2-Post Lift

Most shops don't run one kind of vehicle, and the lift in the bay shouldn't force you to. If you've worked under a baseplate lift, you know the daily annoyance — a floor plate running between the posts that your transmission jack catches on, your drain pan has to skirt around, and your tech has to step over a dozen times a shift. Stack a fixed-height lift on top of that, and a tall van or a lifted truck either won't go all the way up or fights you for clearance the whole way. You end up working around your equipment instead of with it.

The Atlas® PV12PX gives you back the floor and the headroom. It's an extra-wide, extra-tall clearfloor symmetric two-post lift — clearfloor meaning the equalizer cables run overhead, leaving your bay floor completely open for jacks, pans, and creepers with nothing to trip over. The column height is adjustable from roughly 150" to 165", so you set it to clear your tallest vehicles and your ceiling both. At 150 3/4" overall width (159" with the motor) and 123 1/4" inside the columns with a 109 1/2" drive-thru, it loads wide trucks and duallies that a standard-width lift squeezes. Full 12,000 lb capacity, standard 220V single-phase 30A power, and a 12-piece truck adapter set in the box mean it's ready for a mixed bay from day one.

Who the PV12PX Is Built For

  • General repair shops running everything from sedans to dually trucks that need one lift to do it all — the 12,000 lb capacity plus extra width handles the whole mix without picking favorites.
  • Technicians who are done stepping over a baseplate all day — the clearfloor design keeps the entire bay floor open so transmission jacks, drain pans, and creepers roll freely under the vehicle.
  • Shops servicing tall vans, lifted trucks, and box vehicles where ceiling clearance is tight — the adjustable 150"/165" column height lets you dial in maximum lift without scraping the rafters.
  • Bays that load wide-track and dually trucks — 123 1/4" inside the columns and a 109 1/2" drive-thru give big vehicles room to pull straight in and open doors without tight clearances.
  • Owners weighing a baseplate against a clearfloor lift who have the ceiling height to spare — if you've got the room overhead, the open floor of the PV12PX beats a floor plate every time.
  • Growing shops that want headroom in their equipment, not just their building — the adjustable height and extra width mean the lift still fits the next bigger truck that rolls through the door.

What the PV12PX Is NOT Built For

  • ❌ Very low-ceiling bays (the overhead bar needs clearance at the chosen height)
  • ❌ Buyers requiring ALI/ETL certification — choose the Atlas Platinum PVL12 instead

What Makes the PV12PX Different

Clearfloor Symmetric Design

The PV12PX is a clearfloor symmetric lift, meaning the equalizer cables run overhead through the top of the columns rather than across a floor plate, and both arms extend equally from their respective posts. The clear floor keeps your entire bay open — transmission jacks, drain pans, and creepers roll under the vehicle with nothing to catch on — while the symmetric geometry means techs spot every vehicle the same way instead of compensating for offset arms. An open floor plus repeatable setup is faster, cleaner work, and faster work means more bays turning per day.

Capacity & Lift Height

The PV12PX carries a full 12,000 lb capacity with adjustable column height that ranges from roughly 150" to 165", giving a max lift of 79 1/4" with the adapters in place. That adjustability is the point: you set the lift to clear your tallest vans and lifted trucks without scraping the ceiling, then raise heavy vehicles high enough for comfortable under-vehicle access. Heavy capacity and dial-in height mean one lift handles the sedans, the duallies, and the tall box vehicles in your mix — and keeps handling the next bigger truck that rolls in.

Bay Fit & Clearance

The PV12PX is extra-wide — 150 3/4" overall (159" with the motor) with 123 1/4" inside the columns and a 109 1/2" drive-thru between the posts. That width lets wide-track trucks and duallies pull straight in and open their doors fully without the column boxing them in, which is exactly what a standard-width lift can't do. Confirming these dimensions against your bay layout up front means the lift fits your space and the vehicles you load before it ships — no surprises, no fighting clearances once it's anchored down.

Included Truck Adapters

The PV12PX ships with a 12-piece truck adapter set, so the wide trucks and tall vehicles this lift is built for sit at the right height with the right pads from the moment it's in service. You're not sourcing stack adapters separately or improvising lift points on a 12,000 lb truck — the contact points are correct and safe from day one. Having the adapters in the box means faster, more confident setup on every heavy vehicle and one less item to chase down before the lift starts earning its keep.

Power & Hydraulics

The PV12PX runs on 220V, single-phase power with a 30-amp breaker — the same electrical spec as most shop welders and rotary-screw compressors. In most existing shops that means no dedicated panel upgrade and no electrician visit beyond running a line to the lift location. Standard single-phase power keeps install cost down and lets the lift drop into your shop's existing infrastructure rather than forcing an electrical project on top of the purchase. Simple power requirements mean you're lifting sooner and spending less to get there.

✅ Best For
  • ✅ Shops wanting extra width and adjustable height in a clearfloor lift
  • ✅ Mixed fleets of cars, trucks, and wider vehicles
  • ✅ Value-focused 12,000 lb capacity with a clear floor
❌ Not Ideal For
  • ❌ Very low-ceiling bays (the overhead bar needs clearance at the chosen height)
  • ❌ Buyers requiring ALI/ETL certification — choose the Atlas Platinum PVL12 instead

PV12PX vs. Atlas® BP-12000 (12,000 lb baseplate) — Which Lift Is Right for Your Shop?

Decision Point PV12PX Atlas® BP-12000 (12,000 lb baseplate)

Floor Clearfloor Baseplate (across floor)
Height Adjustable / extra-tall Low-ceiling fit

Frequently Asked Questions — Atlas® PV12PX

Is the Atlas PV12PX a clearfloor lift?

Yes — the PV12PX uses an overhead equalization bar so the floor between the columns stays clear, making it easier to roll jacks and move around the vehicle.

How adjustable is the PV12PX height?

The PV12PX offers multiple column-height settings (around 150" and 165"). Confirm the exact final height configuration with Alamo before install so it fits your ceiling.

Is the Atlas PV12PX ALI certified?

No — it's commercial-grade but not ALI-listed. For an ALI-certified 12,000 lb lift, Alamo sells the Atlas Platinum PVL12.

Does width change with the motor installed?

Overall width is about 150 3/4" without the motor and 159" with the motor mounted. Factor the motor side into your bay layout, or ask Alamo to confirm clearance.
