Hofmann 14,000 lb Scissor Alignment Lift — Standard, Surface Mount
Shops that want a full-size alignment rack often assume flush-mount is the only serious option, which means committing to recessed floor construction before the lift even ships. That construction timeline delays getting a new alignment bay online — sometimes by weeks.
The Hofmann EELR787APKG gives you the same full-size standard-length runway (256"-271") as the flush-mount EELR788APKG, but installs directly on top of your existing slab — no recessed pit required. That makes it the faster path to a full-capacity 14,000 lb alignment bay for shops that want the longer runway for larger wheelbase vehicles without the flush-mount construction timeline.
Who the EELR787APKG Is Built For
- Shops that want a full-size standard-length runway (256"-271") but can't commit to the weeks-long recessed floor construction a flush-mount install requires.
- Facilities on a tighter installation timeline — surface mount goes in on your existing slab, no concrete cutting or curing delay before the bay is online.
- Dealerships and fleet shops needing the longest runway available for larger wheelbase vehicles, without the flush-mount construction commitment.
- Shops planning a possible future relocation or bay reconfiguration — a surface-mount lift is a movable asset, unlike a flush-mount recessed pit.
- Independent alignment centers adding a second full-capacity bay quickly, where getting the lift running sooner matters more than a flush floor finish.
- Shops running the full range of 2-wheel, 4-wheel, and general service wheelbase configurations who need the standard-length runway's flexibility.
What the EELR787APKG Is NOT Built For
If your shop wants the cleanest possible floor finish and can accommodate recessed floor work, the flush-mount EELR788APKG gives you the same standard-length runway sitting level with the shop floor. Choose this surface-mount EELR787APKG specifically when a faster, simpler install matters more than a flush finish.
What Makes the EELR787APKG Different
14,000 lb. Lifting Capacity
14,000 lbs is enough to handle heavy-duty vehicles and fleet applications — 3/4-ton trucks, vans, larger SUVs — that a lighter alignment rack couldn't safely support. That capacity headroom means fleet accounts aren't a special case for your bay; they're standard business.
Surface Mount Design
Bolting the runways directly to your existing slab means no concrete cutting, no pit to drain, and a much shorter path from delivery to your first alignment job. It's the fastest way to get a full-size 14K alignment rack running.
Open Front and Rear Configuration
With the front and rear of the runway both open, techs get a clear line to the undercarriage from any position around the vehicle, which speeds up the walk-around checks that come before and during every alignment.
Ultra-Wide 26-Inch Runways
26-inch-wide runways give wider wheelbase vehicles — trucks, vans, dually-adjacent tire setups — more margin for safe, centered loading. That extra width matters most on fleet accounts running larger commercial vehicles through the bay.
ALI Certified Lift
ALI certification confirms the EELR787APKG has been independently tested against ANSI/ALI safety standards — the same benchmark OSHA references. For a fleet-service shop, that certification record matters when insurance carriers or corporate fleet customers ask how vehicles are lifted.

- We service it. When something needs attention after the install, we're the same people you call. Not a national warranty line.
- We size it with you. 14,000 lbs capacity, 16' x 33' minimum bay — we'll confirm it fits before you buy.
- Free shipping. Delivered to your shop, no hidden freight fees.
