Product Overview
Atlas® Platinum PVL10 ALI Certified Adj Height 2 Post Lift 10,000 lbs w/Ext Kit
The Atlas® Platinum PVL10 is a premium 10,000 lb capacity ALI CERTIFIED two-post automotive lift designed for commercial-grade performance and reliability. This complete package includes the AP-Z23A-00H1 Height Extension Kit, which adds an additional 2 feet of overall height to accommodate larger vehicles, trucks, and SUVs. Engineered with the proven Double S column design, the PVL10 delivers the structural strength and dependability that has made this patented technology a worldwide standard for over two decades.
Whether you're lifting passenger cars, light trucks, or taller commercial vehicles, the PVL10-EXT offers the versatility you need. Configurable in both symmetric or asymmetric positions, this lift features three-stage telescoping front arms and two-stage rear arms, providing exceptional reach and flexibility. The adjustable height design allows you to tailor the lift to your facility's ceiling clearance, with configurations of 159 7/8" or 163 7/8" overall height available.
Proven Double S Column Technology
The Atlas Platinum PVL10 was engineered to bring commercial-grade reliability and strength to shops that demand the best. Tens of thousands of above-ground lifts incorporating the revolutionary Double S column design have been sold worldwide, establishing a proven track record of durability and safety. This innovative design incorporates special bends in the column structure that dramatically increase strength and load distribution—technology once protected by patent and now available in the Atlas Platinum line.
Constructed with 6mm thick steel columns measuring 7" x 10 1/4", the PVL10 is built to handle the toughest workloads. The 15" x 18" base footprint ensures exceptional stability, while the higher quality powder coating provides long-lasting protection against wear, corrosion, and the rigors of daily use in a professional automotive environment.
Premium Components and Professional-Grade Features
At the heart of the PVL10 is the ALLY Hydraulic AL2850 Power Unit, a premium hydraulic system certified by MET Laboratories Inc. for electrical compliance in both the United States and Canada. This industry-leading power unit features extra heavy-duty armatures and enhanced motor windings with increased silver metal content in the wires and connections, which drastically reduces heat generation and maintains constant torque throughout the entire lifting process. Unlike lower-grade power units that struggle under load, the AL2850 delivers smooth, consistent performance lift after lift—and is backed by an industry-leading two-year limited warranty.
The lift is equipped with padded carriages and rubber column guards to protect vehicles from scratches and damage during lifting operations. A professional-grade arm lock restraint system with single point lock release ensures fast, safe operation, while the double screw rubber/metal adapters with included truck height extensions accommodate a wide range of vehicle types and lifting points.
The PVL10 lifts to a maximum height of 81 1/2" with adapters or 72 1/2" without adapters, with a minimum arm height of just 4 inches, allowing you to work on low-clearance vehicles with ease. The lift offers generous drive-thru clearance of 91" in asymmetric mode and 99 1/2" in symmetric mode, making vehicle positioning simple and efficient.
Complete Package with Height Extension Kit
This model includes the AP-Z23A-00H1 Height Extension Kit (supersedes ATTDP-APEX10H-STD-EXT-KIT), which adds 2 feet of height to the overall lift structure. The kit includes column extensions, longer hydraulic hoses, and longer cables—everything you need to transform your PVL10 into a taller configuration ideal for shops working on trucks, vans, and vehicles with aftermarket lift kits or oversized tires.
With the extension kit installed, the lift reaches an overall height of 163 7/8" (13' 7 7/8"), with cylinders extending to 12' 4", providing the clearance you need for a wide variety of service tasks. The adjustable height design means you can configure the lift to match your facility's ceiling height and workflow requirements.
