-
Assembled in the USA - Built with SPAX fasteners and steel aircraft cables rated up to 7,000 lbs.
-
Fits any garage layout - five platform sizes (3x6, 3x8, 4x6, 4x8, 4x4) and four finishes.
Reclaim the space above your car. The Auxx-Lift is a motorized ceiling storage platform that lifts totes, boxes, holiday decor, sporting equipment, and seasonal gear straight up and out of the way, freeing your garage floor for what it was built for — parking.
Built around two heavy-duty motors and a set of vinyl-coated steel aircraft cables, the Auxx-Lift raises a full platform of stored items to your ceiling in roughly 30 seconds on a 9-foot ceiling (manufacturer estimate), then locks it there with redundant internal locking. There is no crank, no pulley system to wrestle with, and no ladder involved — everything is controlled from a wireless remote.
The platform itself is assembled in the USA using SPAX fasteners, a 15-gauge C-channel support frame, and a galvanized wire mesh face that lets you see what is stored above without climbing up to check. Every Auxx-Lift ships with a built-in safety lip to help keep items from sliding off the edge, and the manufacturer states it is the only lift of its kind tested to UL safety standards — a distinction worth paying attention to on a product designed to hold weight over your head.
Choose the configuration that matches your garage. Platforms come in 3x6, 3x8, 4x6, 4x8, and 4x4 sizes, with motor options rated for 400, 600, or 800 lbs of lifting capacity (the 800 lb rating is paired with the 4x4 platform). Finishes include Silver Gray, Pearl White, Stainless Steel, and Onyx Black, so the hardware can match the rest of your garage rather than looking like an add-on.
Installation follows the same logic as a garage door opener: two strut channels mount to the ceiling joists, the motors and platform hang from those channels, and the whole system is leveled and wired to a standard household 110V/120V, 15-amp circuit. Most owners handle the install themselves over a weekend with a second set of hands, though professional installers are available in most cities if you would rather hand it off.
For anyone who has run out of garage floor to stacked bins, or who wants a cleaner, more finished-looking storage system than shelving alone can offer, the Auxx-Lift turns unused ceiling space into real, usable storage — engineered to hold serious weight, backed by a two-year warranty, and built to stay out of your way until you need it.
