New York’s Leading Source for Challenger Inground Lifts
When it comes to installation of Inground Lifts, it will be tough to find a company with more experience than Ace Service & Installation. Our family’s experience with inground lifts dates back to the late 1950’s when John Schroeder installed some of the first inground lifts on Long Island as the original Ace Equipment Corp.
Fast forward to today: inground lifts have come a long way, and can still be found in dealerships and repair shops. Today’s inground lifts are manufactured to meet updated environmental regulations, and all of our inground lifts are fully-contained in a sealed recycled polymer cassette tub eliminating the risk of hydraulic fluid leaking into the ground.

Why choose an Inground Lift?
Challenger Lifts Inground Lifts make a strong first impression. Their sleek, robust design inspires confidence and invokes the feeling of a showroom. Enjoy unobstructed access all around a lifted vehicle to increase productivity and minimize technician fatigue.
The clear workspace is ideal for accurate diagnostic work, and a lack of overhead obstruction eliminates vehicle height restrictions. Open and close vehicle doors freely, without difficulty maneuvering or worry of door damage.
RETURN ON INVESTMENT
Secure a higher return on investment. Inground lifts take up less valuable shop space than their above-ground counterparts.
If your facility will fit 10 above-ground lifts, you can install 11 ingrounds. The additional service bay could be worth more than $200,000 in annual parts and service sales.
An inground lift installation is a valuable long-term investment in the future profitability of your facility that will quickly pay for itself.
UNOBSTRUCTED VEHICLE ACCESS
With fewer obstructions to maneuver around, inground lifts offer higher service efficiency and reduced stress on technicians. They also eliminate concern over door damage and service restrictions based on a vehicle’s height.
While lifted, inground lifts provide clear access to vehicle’s mechanical components. While lowered, they offer a clear presentation for your customers of your facility.
DESIGNED WITH THE FUTURE IN MIND
Chrome Cylinders for Extended Lifespan
All Challenger EV Series Inground Lifts come standard with ultra hard, low friction chrome cylinders to allow for the longest possible lifetime. These chrome cylinders are less prone to abrasion and stand up to high stress contact much better than their competitive counterparts while also offering a clean attractive finish.
In areas that have a significant amount of salt on the roads and vehicles, the Challenger EV Series Lifts age substantially better than their competitors. You can view a photo of the leading competitor’s lift here.
EV Series Enhanced Raised Wipers
Superior Design = Less Maintenance For You
Enhanced raised wipers made from thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPU) are resilient to impacts, abrasions, oils, and grease. The Challenger Inground Lifts require quarterly greasing as opposed to competitor’s monthly maintenance.
