SUBTERRA Double Deck Vehicle Lift
Product Information
The Subterra double-deck lift is a scissor-style hydraulic lift
system designed to move vehicles safely from street level to a
subterranean parking area below grade. It is suitable for both
private residences and commercial applications where space is
limited or garage ceiling height is insufficient for storing two
vehicles above ground. The Subterra Lift is an affordable and
efficient solution to parking problems.
Key Features:
- Quality-built remote controls for easy operation
- Optional features available, including LED lights and emergency
stop touchstrips
Please note that Subterra Lifts are not intended for
transporting people or vehicles with passengers aboard.
Product Usage Instructions
- Ensure that the Subterra Lift is installed in a suitable
location, with ample space for vehicle movement. - Use the provided remote controls to operate the lift.
Familiarize yourself with the control buttons and their
functions. - Prior to using the lift, make sure that there are no people or
passengers inside the vehicle being transported. - Position the vehicle on the upper deck of the lift.
- Press the appropriate button on the remote control to activate
the lift. The scissor-style hydraulic system will raise the vehicle
from street level to the desired subterranean parking area. - Once the lift reaches the subterranean level, carefully drive
the vehicle off the lift and park it in the designated parking
space. - To lower the lift, press the corresponding button on the remote
control. The lift will descend to street level, allowing for
vehicle retrieval. - Always follow safety guidelines and instructions provided in
the user manual to ensure safe and proper usage of the Subterra
Lift.
The Subterra double-deck lift is a scissor-style hydraulic lift system designed to move your vehicles safely from street level to a subterranian parking area below grade. Made to accomodate private residences or commercial applications where space is at a premium or where garage ceiling height is too low to store two vehicles above ground, our Subterra Lift is an affordable and efficient solution to parking woes.
With it’s powerful and reliable scissor-lift design, the Subterra double-deck lift features a quality-built top platform that serves to fill the opening at grade level when the lower platform is descended into the sub-base area – creating a permantent parking space at grade-level while the lowered vehicle is completely concealed below ground. Available in two models; with or without an optional telescopic column, the Subterra telescopic model is useful for when the travel area to sub-grade is larger than the travel-area above grade.
Featuring quality-built remote controls for easy operation, our Subterra Lifts can be outfitted with an array of optional features including LED lights, emergency stop touchstrips and more.

Options:
Guarding The Lift Operating Zone Personnel safety during lift operation is of utmost importance, and some safety features are sold as standard with every lift. Additional, optional, guards, safeties, and restraints are available to prevent inadvertent contact with a moving lift on both the operating level, and the level that is outside the operator’s direct line of sight.
Security Cameras (Security cameras are mounted in the lift operating zone at the level not occupied by the operator. These cameras allow the operator to view the portion of the lift zone that is outside his direct line of sight by watching the monitor mounted adjacent to the pushbutton station
Audible Alarm An adjustable audible alarm that sounds off any time the lift is moving, or is left in any position other than the fully raised or fully lowered position, to warn people in the area of lift movement.
Emergency Stop Button
E-Stop stations are mounted in the lift operating zone at the level not occupied by the operator. Pressing this large, red “panic” button removes all power to the lift controls and renders the lift inoperable until the button is manually reset.
Interlocks
Door interlocks are also recommended for all doors leading into the lift operating zone to temporarily and automatically place the door into “lock” condition whenever the lift carriage is moving. Interlocks also come in different designs, including some that are available as a combination status switch and interlock.
Motion Sensors These sensors are mounted in the lift operating zone at the level not occupied by the operator. Any motion that is detected while the lift is moving automatically disables the operator push-button station and stops the lift.
Doors It is common for doors, usually fire-rated doors provided by the general contractor, to enter the lift operating zone at both the operating level to and the non-operating level to prevent incidental contact with the lift. It is recommended that the status of these doors be monitored, and interlocked to prevent entry ingress/egress while the lift is moving.
Enclosures In addition to conventional walls which can be constructed around the lift operating zone to prevent access to the lift, the manufacturer can supply commercial/industrial (typically expanded metal) enclosures as personnel barriers.
Status switches
Door status switches are recommended for all doors leading into the lift operating zone to prevent operation of the lift if a door is in the “open” status. These switches come in a variety of designs, depending on the style door that they are mounted to.
Photo Eye Sensors
Photo eye sensors can be placed at strategic points around the unprotected/unguarded edges of the lift carriage to detect any interference with people or objects that break the photo eye path. If this path is broken, the lift will immediately be rendered inoperable until the interference is removed.
