2-Post Automotive Lifts
NES offers professional 2-post lifts from Challenger and Coats for automotive repair shops, dealerships, fleets and home garages. We help match the lift to your vehicle mix, available space, workload and budget, then provide professional installation and local service after the sale.
Choosing the Right 2-Post Lift
Capacity is only one part of choosing a 2-post lift. Overall width and height, arm reach, drive-through clearance, ceiling height and the types of vehicles being serviced can all affect which model is the best fit.
NES can review your facility before purchase and help determine the right lift and installation configuration.

12,000 lb. lifts are a good step up for shops servicing larger pickups, vans, SUVs and light commercial vehicles. NES offers both value-focused and highly configurable options from Challenger and Coats, allowing the lift to be matched to the vehicle mix, available space and budget.

Best For: Dealerships, high-volume shops and mixed fleets where bay dimensions, vehicle variety or future flexibility make configuration options important.
Coats N212 - 2N1
12,000 lb. | Flexmetric / 2N1
Best For: General repair shops, dealerships and mixed-vehicle service bays that want broad vehicle coverage without dedicating the lift to a strictly symmetric layout.

12,000 lb. | Symmetric Heavy-Duty Lift
Best For: Truck, van and fleet service applications where a traditional symmetric setup, wider vehicle positioning and straightforward heavy-duty operation are the priority.
Heavy-Duty 2-Post Lifts
For shops servicing larger pickups, commercial vans, fleet vehicles and heavier work trucks, NES offers heavy-duty 2-post lifts from 15,000 to 20,000 lb. Challenger and Coats both offer strong options in this range, with differences in capacity, arm design, dimensional flexibility and equipment cost.

Challenger CL16-3S
16,000 lb. | Pro Line Heavy-Duty
Best For: Dealerships, fleet shops and mixed commercial-vehicle facilities where arm reach, bay dimensions and future vehicle flexibility justify a more configurable heavy-duty lift.
Coats N216
16,000 lb. | Maxx Heavy-Duty
Best For: Fleet, municipal, government and commercial repair facilities that need true 16K capacity in a straightforward heavy-duty platform and do not need the dimensional adjustability of the CL16.

12,000 lb. | Maxx Heavy-Duty
Best For: Fleet, truck and commercial service facilities that want a straightforward 20K lift with a fixed heavy-duty layout and strong acquisition value.
