How long does installation take?

Timeline depends on equipment type and facility complexity. A single 2-post lift typically takes one day. Larger projects with multiple lifts or structural work may take several days to weeks. We provide a detailed schedule during the planning phase and coordinate around your operations to minimize downtime.

What if my facility needs modifications?

Our site assessment identifies any electrical upgrades, structural reinforcement, or facility prep needed before installation. We guide you through those requirements and can coordinate with your contractors. Most modifications are handled before our team arrives.

Do you handle permits and approvals?

Yes. We work with building officials and handle permit coordination as needed. Our experience across six states means we understand local requirements and can navigate the process efficiently.

What happens if something goes wrong?

Our trucks carry replacement parts and hardware for adjustments during installation. If an unexpected issue arises, our technicians solve it on-site rather than leaving you waiting. That’s part of our first-time fix commitment.

Can you install equipment from other vendors?

We specialize in equipment we distribute and know intimately. For other brands, we recommend discussing your needs with us first—we may have better alternatives or can advise on compatibility and installation complexity.

Expertise

Manufacturer-Trained Teams You Can Count On

Our installation crews are factory-certified and trained directly by Stertil-Koni, Challenger Lifts, Car-O-Liner, Accudraft, and the other manufacturers we carry. Whether it's mobile columns for a transit operation, two-lift posts for a dealership, or frame machines for a collision repair center, they've done it before and they know how to do it right.

Planning

Work Smarter Not Harder

Installation starts before the equipment shows up. We assess your facility, verify electrical and structural requirements, and coordinate delivery. If there are other contractors or building officials involved, we work with them to ensure there are no surprises on install day. If not, we have general contractors on staff that can assist.

Our Installation Process

Consultation & Site Assessment

We discuss your needs, assess your facility, and verify all requirements (electrical, structural, space). You'll receive a detailed quote and timeline.

Planning and Preparation

We finalize equipment specifications, coordinate delivery dates, and provide facility preparation guidance. Any permits or approvals are handled in advance.

Equipment Delivery

Equipment arrives on schedule. Our team inspects all components to ensure everything is correct before installation begins.

Professional Installation

Factory-trained technicians install your equipment according to manufacturer specifications. We handle electrical connections, anchoring, calibration, and all final adjustments.

Testing and Inspection

Every installation is thoroughly tested and inspected to ensure proper operation and safety compliance. We verify all functions before handoff.

Training and Documentation

We demonstrate the key functions and proper operation of your equipment and provide maintenance instructions.

The SLE Difference

Why Our Process Stands Out

We always have local teams who understand your setup and keep you informed along the way.

Inventory — We Show Up Ready

Our trucks come with the tools, hardware, and extra parts we might need. If something comes up during the install, we don't have to stop and wait on a shipment.

Scheduling — On-time, Every Time

We coordinate with your operation to minimize disruption and complete work on schedule.

Resources — Regional Resources

Our local crews respond quickly. For bigger projects, we can pull in resources from across our regional network.

What Customers Say

Hear from the shops we've equipped.

"They showed up when they said they would, knew exactly what they were doing, and had the parts on hand to get us back in business that same day. That's the kind of partner you want running your shop."

Marcus Webb

Fleet manager, transit authority

"We've worked with a lot of equipment companies over the years. SLE is different—they actually care whether the job gets done right, not just whether they made the sale."

Jennifer Cole

Service director, dealership
