Description
The Katool KT-H105 packs 10,000 lbs of lifting capacity into a base plate two-post design that fits standard garages and professional shops alike. What sets this lift apart from everything else in its price range: it comes equipped with a Bucher Hydraulics power unit — a Swiss-engineered, ISO 9001 certified hydraulic system trusted by commercial and industrial operations worldwide. You won't find Bucher Hydraulics on any other lift at this price point.
Dual hydraulic chain-drive cylinders ensure both arms rise in sync, while the dual-side manual safety lock release lets you work underneath with confidence at any height. Base plate design means easier installation, no overhead beam, and simpler delivery day unloading.
1-year parts + 3-year structural warranty | CE certified (150% static load tested)
Will It Fit Your Garage?
Before you buy any two-post lift, check your ceiling and floor. The KT-H105 requires:
-
Ceiling Height: 11 ft minimum (110.9" overall height)
-
Floor Width: 12 ft minimum (140.4" overall width)
-
Drive-Through Clearance: 98.4" (fits full-size trucks and SUVs)
-
Concrete Thickness: 5.9" (150mm) minimum with a 3,000 PSI rating
Important: Concrete thickness must be at least 5.9" (150mm) with a 3,000 PSI rating. It is the customer's responsibility to verify concrete thickness and strength before purchase and installation.

Bucher Hydraulics Power Unit
Most two-post lifts in this price range ship with no-name hydraulic power units from unknown manufacturers. The KT-H105 comes standard with a Bucher Hydraulics power unit — a Swiss-made, ISO 9001 certified system built to commercial and industrial standards.
Bucher Hydraulics has been manufacturing precision hydraulic systems since 1923. Their power units are used in construction equipment, agricultural machinery, and industrial applications around the world. On the KT-H105, this translates to smoother lifting, quieter operation, and a hydraulic system that's built to last far longer than the generic alternatives.
