Forward BP9 9,000lb 2 Post Lift - Low Ceiling/ALI Certified
BP9 9,000 lb Low-Ceiling Two-Post Symmetric Lift with Floorplate Design
The BP9 is a professional-grade low-ceiling two-post symmetric vehicle lift designed specifically for shops with limited overhead clearance. With an overall height of just 111.25 inches, this lift delivers full 9,000 lb lifting capacity while fitting comfortably in service bays with ceiling heights as low as 113 inches. Its floorplate design eliminates the need for an overhead crossbar, making it ideal for low-clearance environments without sacrificing performance.
Engineered for durability and daily commercial use, the BP9 features a rugged steel base plate that runs between the columns to protect hydraulic hoses and cables typically routed overhead. This configuration enhances safety while maintaining smooth lifting operation. The lift offers flexible arm reach and optional height extensions, allowing technicians to service a wide range of passenger vehicles, light trucks, and SUVs with confidence.
The BP9 is an excellent solution for independent repair shops, tire centers, and home or light-commercial garages where ceiling height is a limiting factor. Designed to deliver Rotary-level reliability in space-restricted environments, this lift provides a dependable, long-term solution for shops that require professional lifting capability without structural modifications.
