I'm not touting Rotary just because I have one, but the SPO-A10 has very small columns as compared to a Bend Pack or Challenger, so the posts are less in-the-way. My bay height is 14'. I do not have a pull-up garage door, I have sliding barn doors. You need to make sure the garage door you use is a high-bay style that allows a full full vehicle lift when the door is open. And spec a heater as well. Cars break in winter...

Plus you'll get used to the lift in the space in no time. It's like a coffee table, once it's in place, you learn to naturally avoid it. I can walk around my shop at night with no lights on and not run into the lift; you just learn to know "it's there". I've had mine now for almost 17 years, trust me on this.
