Description
Atlas® APEX9 – ALI Certified 9,000 lb. Heavy-Duty Hobbyist 4-Post Lift
The Atlas® APEX9 is a true 9,000 lb. capacity, ALI Certified four-post lift engineered for both hobbyist and light commercial use. Built with exceptional strength and precision, this model is extra-long, extra-wide, and extra-tall, making it capable of accommodating an impressive range of vehicles — from compact Smart Cars® to large diesel dually trucks.
Its extended runway length easily supports vehicles with long wheelbases, while the increased width allows even wide-track or dual-rear-wheel trucks to drive on comfortably. The generous lift height provides enough clearance to park a second vehicle underneath, maximizing garage space and storage efficiency.
The APEX9 is heavier and more robust than the Atlas® Garage PRO9000, ranking among the heaviest portable hobbyist lifts on the market. Like the PRO9000, it includes a set of premium accessories — four plastic drip trays, a steel jack tray, and a caster kit with polyurethane wheels. The caster kit installs or removes in minutes, making the lift fully portable for easy repositioning between bays or even outdoor use.
For added functionality, the APEX9 features integrated runway tracks that allow the use of a rolling bridge jack (recommended: Atlas® RJ6BK, sold separately), enabling efficient wheel-off service work.
With its commercial-grade construction, ALI certification, and portable design, the Atlas® APEX9 is an ideal choice for professional service centers, serious car enthusiasts, or homeowners seeking a professional-quality lift with proven safety and durability.
