Challenger 7,000 lb 4-Post Home Storage Lift, 110V or 220V
A two-car garage with three vehicles is a daily puzzle — the project car, the daily driver, and whatever else needs to fit, all competing for the same floor space. Before looking at a storage lift, most garage owners also run into a second problem: their garage only has a standard 110V outlet, and a lot of home lifts assume you'll run a dedicated 220V line just to get started.
The Challenger CL4P7S solves both problems at once. It's a 7,000 lb 4-post storage lift that runs on either 110V or 220V power, so it plugs into whatever your garage already has — no electrician visit required just to power it on. Raised, it opens up 63" of clearance underneath, enough to park a second vehicle in that reclaimed floor space.
Who the CL4P7S Is Built For
- A home garage owner with a standard 110V outlet who doesn't want to pay an electrician to run a dedicated 220V circuit just to operate a storage lift.
- An enthusiast storing a project car, motorcycle, or second daily driver who needs the 63" clearance underneath to actually park another vehicle in the reclaimed space.
- A homeowner with a compact garage footprint (10' x 20' minimum) who needs the most space-efficient storage solution in this batch rather than a larger commercial-style lift.
- Someone doing light-duty general service (oil changes, brake work, undercarriage inspection) at home who wants occasional lift access, not a daily-use commercial platform.
- A buyer who wants ALI certification on a home lift for insurance or resale-value peace of mind, not just a lift that looks similar online.
- A garage owner comparing storage lifts who needs the lightest footprint and lowest capacity option (7,000 lbs) because their vehicles are passenger cars, not trucks or SUVs needing the CL4P9W's 9,000 lb rating.
What the CL4P7S Is NOT Built For
If you're storing a full-size truck or SUV, or want more storage clearance underneath, the CL4P9W steps up to 9,000 lbs capacity and 80" of clearance height. And if you're running a commercial shop rather than a home garage, the 4P14 or 4115 series general-service and alignment lifts are built for daily commercial duty cycles the CL4P7S isn't designed for.
What Makes the CL4P7S Different
Dual Voltage Operation
The CL4P7S runs on either 110V or 220V, which means it installs wherever your garage's existing outlets already are — no electrician visit and no dedicated 220V circuit required just to get the lift running. That single detail removes the biggest hidden cost most homeowners run into when shopping for a storage lift.
Maximum Home & Storage Versatility
Whether it's a weekend project car, a motorcycle collection, or just reclaiming garage floor space for a second daily driver, the CL4P7S is built for home enthusiast use, commercial storage bays, or occasional light-duty general service — not locked into one narrow use case.
63" Storage Clearance Height
Raised, the CL4P7S opens up 63" of clearance underneath — enough to actually park a second vehicle in that reclaimed floor space rather than just leaving it empty. That's the difference between a lift that merely elevates a car and one that functions as real storage.
Optional Accessory Range
A wide range of add-ons is available to customize the CL4P7S to your specific setup, so you're not stuck with a one-size-fits-all configuration if your garage or storage needs have particular quirks.
ALI Certified Lift
The CL4P7S meets Automotive Lift Institute safety standards — the same independent certification commercial shops rely on. For a home buyer, that's peace of mind that the lift has been tested to a real safety standard, not just marketed as safe, and it can matter for insurance and resale value down the road.
