Description:
The Atlas Pro OF14K four post commercial grade open front alignment lift is built for years of dependable service for the busiest of automotive shops. This heavy duty alignment four post lift utilizes top quality aircraft cable actuated by an oversized hydraulic cylinder (located underneath the runway) to provide the smoothest and safest method of lifting both small cars and large trucks. You can trust the ATLAS name for many years of dependable service.
The complete Atlas Pro OF14K Open Front Alignment Lift weighs 3,000 LB. and is one of the heaviest and longest wheel based alignment lifts sold in the USA. Please compare the steel thickness and the quality of construction to any other of our competitor’s four post lift.

The Atlas Pro OF14K open front alignment lift has no cross beam in the front of the lift. The front crossbeam has been known to produce a few headaches for alignment technicians that were not paying attention as they walked to their tool boxes.
The Atlas Pro OF14K open front alignment lift has 2 wheel alignment wheel base capabilities of 218 inches. The Atlas Pro OF14K has built in slip plates and recessed areas in the runways to allow for turntables.
Hydraulic Cable Method vs. The Chain Lifting Method:
Certain competitors offer a four post lift with the “old-style” chain lifting method. The chain lifting method has many disadvantages when compared to the hydraulic cable method found on the Atlas Pro OF14K four post open front alignment lift.
The exposed hydraulic cylinder found on the chain style four post lifts is located between one of the front columns and the rear column. Certain competitors show a truck lifted on their “old style” chain lift. The truck is positioned so that the customer cannot see the hydraulic cylinder located between the columns. This hydraulic cylinder is responsible for many “door dings”. The cylinder (whether located on the driver’s side or the passenger’s side) makes opening the vehicle doors very difficult.
Air Operated Double Lock:
The AIR OPERATED DOUBLE LOCK designed for the Atlas Pro OF14K open front alignment lift offers many more safety features than the locking system on other four post lifts.
Wide Fixed Runways:
The Atlas Pro OF14K has very wide FIXED runways that will accommodate everything from a FORD F550 to a TRIUMPH TR 6. These FIXED runways offer a solid lifting platform for the
RJ 70 rolling jacks that roll down the center of the lift. When the rolling jack is used to lift a vehicle “off” of the four post lift’s runways, there is an extreme downward force applied to the inside of both runways. The “old-style” chain 4-post lifts normally have one runway that is “moveable”. This “moveable” runway (when pressured with the downward force of a rolling jack) may easily “kick out” and allow the jack to become separated from the inside of the runway. If you own an old style chain four post lift, we would recommend that you “bolt down” the “moveable” runway to avoid an accident. The old style chain lifts have “moveable” runways because the width of their runways is narrower than the runways on an Atlas Pro OF14K open front four post alignment lift.
Optional Rolling Jacks:
The
RJ 70 (7,000 LB rolling jacks) will allow the operator to perform a variety of wheel services while the vehicle is still on the Atlas Pro OF14K four post lift. The
RJ 70 rolling jacks are very popular accessories for those garages performing two wheel alignment or four wheel alignment.
"Lock Ladder" Column Design System:
The Atlas Pro OF14K has the same “lock ladder” column design system. The columns on the 14,000 LB. four post lifts incorporate the “lock ladder” system which allows the customer to level the lift runways (both front to back and side to side), on floors that are not quite level. The “lock ladder” column system is the same column system found on professional grade lifts found in car dealerships and automotive service centers.
Double Lock System:
The Atlas Pro OF14K incorporates the unique DOUBLE LOCK SYSTEM safety system into each of its four oversized columns. The DOUBLE LOCK SYSTEM safety system is designed to ensure that if a lifting cable becomes slack (for any reason), the secondary locking mechanism automatically engages. This DOUBLE LOCK safety system is found only on other four post above ground lifts costing hundreds of dollars more than the Atlas Pro OF14K.
Installation:
The Atlas Pro OF14K open front alignment above ground lift should be installed on a concrete floor. This concrete floor should have a minimum of four (4) inches of concrete with 3000 PSI strength.
Most of our above ground lift customers install their own car lifts. The average time to install the Atlas Pro OF14K open front alignment lift is six hours.
We provide detailed installation instructions with all our two post above ground lifts and our four post above ground lifts.
Parts:
Our Manufacturer stocks a limited inventory of lift parts for all the lifts we sell. Lift parts and technical support personnel can be found at all three of our locations.
Certain competitors do not stock the lifts they advertise and do not stock any of the lift parts or accessories. Lifting a car is serious business.
