Experts in Automotive Equipment Service & Repair
ALI was established in 1945 by nine U.S. car lift manufacturers who came together to work for the industry’s common good…At the time, high-grade steel was in short supply, so some manufacturers were reprocessing scrap steel of questionable quality to produce lift components. ALI members questioned the quality of these lifts and the safety of the lift operators working under them.
The focus on quality and safety that drove the need for high quality standards over 75 years ago remains the basis of our mission today: To promote the safe design, construction, installation, inspection, and use of automotive lifts.

CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS

Finding capable professionals to move lifts is not an easy task, but I'm glad I found ALS. I worked with Stacey, Ken, and Matt and they all accommodated all my needs. They came down from PA to MD and moved three 4-post lifts to our business and home in VA. Disassembly and reassembly went very smooth. Thank you!

Everything with the purchase and installation went great!! Ordering was easy, all my questions were answered very professionally and knowledgeable. The installation went flawlessly, the guys were great to work with... once again professional and knowledgeable. They cleaned up everything when the job was complete. Very happy and would use them again if I ever need a second lift.

Excellent and professional service. Quick response, especially from out of state, and the technician knew his stuff (even on a non-standard lift).
I'll reschedule them next year for sure.Mike H.
