With a robust 14,000 lb lifting capacity, this closed-front, cable-driven lift handles a wide range of vehicles—from compact cars to full-size trucks, SUVs, and vans—while delivering the reliability and advanced features you need for daily service operations.
Built on a high-performance cable lift system with concealed hydraulics and mechanical redundancy, the FP14KC-X offers extended rise height for superior undercarriage access, making complex service tasks faster and more comfortable.

The iDeal FP14KC-X is designed with the demands of busy commercial service bays in mind. The advanced cable pull vehicle lift system features slack cable safety devices for added protection, along with a durable pulley and shaft design incorporating convenient grease fittings to extend the life of the lift and simplify maintenance. This robust construction ensures long-term reliability, even under the rigors of daily shop use.
The lift includes 18 locking height positions, giving you precise control for a variety of service tasks. Fully adjustable lock stops make runway leveling quick and easy, ensuring stable and safe operation every time. The single point pneumatic safety release mechanism streamlines operation, allowing one technician to raise and lower the lift safely and efficiently.
With 20-inch wide runways and both narrow and wide runway mounting positions, the FP14KC-X accommodates diverse vehicle track widths with confidence. The lift's self-chocking approach ramps equipped with nylon rollers ensure smooth, secure vehicle loading, while the included wheel chocks provide additional peace of mind during service work.
One of the standout features of the FP14KC-X is its modular design, which offers unmatched flexibility for growing shops or facilities with diverse service needs. The runways can be extended to service longer vehicles, and the lift can be quickly and easily converted into an alignment lift, providing a cost-effective, all-in-one solution for service and precision alignment work.
The lift's extended rise height (maximum 77 1/2 inches) provides excellent undercarriage clearance, making it easier to perform detailed inspections, exhaust work, suspension repairs, and more. With a maximum wheelbase capacity of 182.5 inches, the FP14KC-X handles everything from compact cars to extended cab pickups with room to spare.
Optional power unit mounting positions give you the ability to configure the lift to fit your bay layout perfectly, while the drive-thru clearance and open platform design support efficient workflow and easy vehicle positioning.
Quality construction is at the heart of the iDeal FP14KC-X. The lift features a durable powder-coated paint finish that resists corrosion and wear, keeping your equipment looking professional for years. The high-quality DURO power unit delivers smooth, consistent lifting performance, while the robust cable and pulley system ensures reliable operation under heavy daily use.
The lift is engineered with multiple safety features, including slack cable safety devices, single point pneumatic lock release, and self-chocking ramps, all working together to protect your technicians and your vehicles. The fully adjustable lock stops ensure precise leveling, reducing strain and improving safety during service operations.
Powered by 220V, 20 Amp, 1-Phase electricity, the FP14KC-X integrates easily into most commercial shop electrical systems. The lift requires a minimum bay size of 16 feet by 25 feet, making it a practical solution for a wide range of facility layouts.
