Portable Car Lifts for Auto Repair Shops

When Wheel Deals added two QuickJack lifts to its Los Angeles-area tire and wheel shop, we stopped by to see them in action. Owner-operator Bobby shared why he chose QuickJack and how the portable frames fit into his team’s daily workflow. From positioning vehicles for wheel service to making use of available shop space, the visit shows how a portable car lift can complement a busy operation. Watch the interview for a closer look at QuickJack on the shop floor and hear from someone who puts it to work.

Shop space needs to work as hard as your technicians. QuickJack’s frames collapse and roll away when the job is done, so you can clear the work area for the next task. Keep the frames in a designated storage area, use compatible QuickJack Wall Hangers to get them off the floor, or store them beneath a suitable vehicle when clearance allows. With no permanent installation, you can choose a storage arrangement that fits your shop’s layout and keep your lift close at hand for everyday service.

Getting a clear look at lower body panels can make a difference during repair work. QuickJack raises the vehicle so technicians can inspect rocker panels, check lower trim, and reach areas around the wheel openings with less bending. Its separate lifting frames keep the center open for access beneath the vehicle, while the portable design lets you set up in an appropriate work area. For body shops handling inspections, trim work, and other tasks that benefit from better access, QuickJack adds lifting flexibility without permanently taking over another bay.

When your main lifts are occupied or one is down for service, QuickJack gives your team another option for routine maintenance and repairs. Its open-center design provides access for oil changes, brake work, tire rotations, and inspections, while portable frames let you set up in an appropriate available work area. Handle a smaller job while a longer repair stays on your primary lift, then put QuickJack away when the space is needed for something else. It’s a practical backup that adds flexibility to your shop without another permanent installation.

Whether detailing is already on your service menu or something you’re planning to add, QuickJack helps put more of the vehicle within reach. Raising the vehicle brings wheels, rocker panels, and lower bodywork to a more convenient working height for cleaning, polishing, and finishing. Its open-center design also provides access beneath the vehicle, while portable frames let you arrange your workspace around the job. Use the same lift for repair and detailing work, giving your technicians another way to tackle the small details that make a difference in the finished vehicle.
