Product overview

The Iron Lift FORGE 45CHX is a 4,500 kg clear-floor two-post hoist for professional workshops that need generous access around the vehicle and additional working height. The clear-floor layout keeps the bay unobstructed, while the 3,000 mm width between columns and four three-stage arms provide a broad working envelope. Two overall-height settings allow the installation to suit different ceiling conditions. Dual direct-drive hydraulic cylinders lift the carriages without a floor plate across the working bay.

Overall width is 3,666 mm, drive-through clearance is 2,710 mm and width between columns is 3,000 mm. Minimum pad height is 90 mm.

Capacity alone does not establish vehicle suitability.

Frequently asked questions

What makes FORGE 45CHX different from a standard-height clear-floor two-post?
It provides two overall-height settings, 3,000 mm between columns and lifting height above 2,000 mm without extension adapters.
It has a 4,500 kg rating, but actual suitability depends on lifting points, dimensions, weight distribution and adapter/arm reach – not capacity alone.
A 3-inch extension adapter is standard with the double-screw pad. A 6-inch adapter is listed as an option.
The hoist has overall-height settings of 4,035 mm and 4,313 mm. Additional building/services and vehicle clearance is still required.
Yes. Installation planning and commissioning can be quoted after the site, slab, electrical supply and access have been checked.
