Short in Stature, Giant in Performance: APEX™ by BendPak Launches AL9LC Two-Post Lift

New low-ceiling floorplate car lift maximizes overhead clearance

AGOURA HILLS, CA (July 14, 2026) — APEX™ by BendPak introduces the AL9LC two-post floorplate car lift, engineered for shops and home garages looking for professional lifting capability in low-ceiling environments.

The AL9LC’s floorplate design maximizes overhead clearance by eliminating the top crossbar found on many two-post lifts, making it a smart choice for low-ceiling bays and working on taller vehicles without interference.

The new APEX™ by BendPak AL9LC two-post floorplate car lift delivers 9,000 pounds of professional lifting capacity in a compact package designed for low-ceiling environments.

Professional Two-Post Lift Features

The APEX AL9LC delivers the features master technicians and home mechanics need to efficiently service a wide range of vehicles:

  • 9,000-lb. capacity: Handles everything from low-slung sports cars to full-size pickups.
  • Flexible arm positioning: Lift vehicles symmetrically or asymmetrically.
  • Triple-telescoping front arms and dual-stage rear arms: Access a wide range of vehicle lifting points.
  • Automatic safety locks: Engage every three inches for added security.
  • Automatic arm restraints: Keep the swing arms securely in place for peace of mind.
  • Double-telescoping screw pads and stackable adapters: Help ensure secure, stable vehicle contact.

“Low ceilings and limited budgets don’t have to dictate a shop’s potential,” says Tyler Rex, BendPak senior director of marketing. “The APEX AL9LC brings premium, uncompromised power to compact workspaces at a price point that makes sense.”

Heavy-Duty and Low-Maintenance

Constructed with high-strength steel and reinforced components, the APEX AL9LC is built to withstand the demands of daily shop use. A heavy-duty 6-inch by 6-inch tubular steel carriage delivers superior load-bearing support, while oversized base plates help ensure even weight distribution and stability.

APEX™ by BendPak introduces the AL9LC two-post floorplate car lift. The versatile lift easily raises most vehicles weighing up to 9,000 pounds, from sports cars to pickups.

The AL9LC features a proven chain-over design with an industrial-grade leaf chain engineered to endure heavy loads and repeated lifting cycles without stretching or premature wear. Oversized heavy-duty rollers with Zerk grease fittings, along with self-lubricating UHMW polyethylene guide blocks, reduce friction and wear while helping maintain smooth, consistent operation with minimal maintenance.

Like all APEX by BendPak car lifts, the AL9LC is backed by a three-year warranty and a nationwide support network.
