6 Reasons Why a 3-Car Hoist is a Must-Have

Space is often in short supply when it comes to car parking, and that’s when the 3-tier car hoist comes in handy.

A 3-level car storage hoist is a specialised storage system. It is made to accommodate multiple cars in areas where space is limited. It does this by stacking three vehicles vertically on separate platforms.

Here at Tufflift, we stock two types of triple car stackers: the 3-tier parking hoist (short) and the 3-tier parking hoist (high). The TLM-3TPH-S is designed for passenger vehicles and restricted ceiling height, while the TLM-3TPH-H offers higher vehicle spaces, making it suitable for SUVs and vans.

But what other benefits do these space-saving car lifts come with? Keep reading to discover the top six advantages of using one in your home garage or business…

1. A 3-Car Hoist Maximises Spaces

Having the room to reserve vehicles and optimise space is essential. This is especially true for commercial garages and residential buildings with secure private parking.

A 3-tier car storage lift offers a practical solution for densely populated areas. It allows three vehicles to park in the footprint of one, increasing parking capacity.

This innovative vehicle hoist not only enables the vertical stacking of cars. You can also use it to stack two cars while providing space underneath for your daily drive or more frequently used vehicle. This versatility can be particularly useful for car mechanics and for use in car dealerships, showrooms, private collections, and car rental agencies.

2. A Triple Car Stacker Has Many Lifting Capacities

Tufflift’s TLM-3TPH-S and TLM-3TPH-H car stacker models support substantial loads. Up to 2,500 kg on the second level and up to 2,000 kg on the third level (aka the top).

This ability to hold heavy weights means they can accommodate a wide range of vehicle types. This includes everything from standard sedans and hatchbacks to heavier family cars and small vans.

Additionally, the TLM-3TPH-H is designed for parking spaces with higher clearances. It can reach a maximum ceiling height of up to 6.1 metres. This feature allows the hoist to be used for vehicles with taller than average heights.

3. A 3-Level Car Hoist Keeps Vehicles Safe

In the kinds of urban environments where car stacker parking is used, safety can sometimes be a concern. However, the structure of these parking systems makes them inherently safer than any other traditional parking methods.

A 4-post car hoist is an organised solution that can protect cars from unauthorised access, damage or theft. They come with a range of advanced safety features and mechanisms for stable operations and to prevent accidents during use?.

Our 3-tier hoists are equipped with automatic safety locks that engage as the hoist is raised. This makes sure the lift remains securely in place at various heights. It also has a secondary isolation switch that acts as an emergency locking system to quickly cut off power if any issues arise.

They have height limit switches that stop when it reaches a predetermined height, and a hydraulic cylinder with an anti-burst valve to prevent sudden drops in case of a hydraulic hoist failure. They also have sturdy metal platform inserts to provide a strong, durable surface that distributes weight evenly, and end plates that keep vehicles secure when lifting.

4. A 3-Car Storage Lift Has a Durable Design

Durability is another key benefit of a multi-car hoist.

Our models feature a robust, charcoal powder-coated finish. This not only enhances its aesthetic appeal but also provides excellent corrosion resistance. This protective layer ensures that the hoists can withstand rigorous daily use.

We also stand behind the quality of our parking lifts with a generous warranty. Customers receive a 5-year warranty on the structural components, and a 1-year warranty covering electrical, mechanical, and hydraulic features. This includes both parts and labour.

5. A Triple Car Hoist Is Cost-Effective

Investing in a 3-car, 4-post hoist is a smart financial decision for both residential and commercial spaces. They are a cost-effective solution for areas that would’ve otherwise required construction work.

Compared to building additional parking levels or mezzanine floors, a car stacker offers significant savings in both construction and ongoing maintenance costs.

In the long run, it’s a much more budget-friendly option for businesses that maximises space while minimising costs.

6. A 3-Car Stacker Lift Is Easy to Use

Vehicle lifts are designed with convenience in mind. They come with factory-wired control boxes and a single electrical connection point, making them easy to operate and install.

Once set up, the lift is equally simple. It features an electric park button for smooth and straightforward operation, while extended lock ladders provide more flexibility in selecting parking positions.

This allows for a seamless integration into various commercial and residential settings. The combination of easy installation and a user-friendly design boosts the overall efficiency of the hoist, making it a practical choice for expanding your vehicle storage capabilities.
