How high do I have to lift the drywall to mount it on the lift?

With the lift in the down position, I would say the platform is about 5 feet off the ground.

3 - 5 ft depending whether you use the hooks sideways. I found it easier just to tip the sheet onto it flat which would be at about 5 ft. If you look at the guy in the picture that's as low as the stand will go.

Perhaps 18". You lift it vertically to the machine and then it swivels horizontally for mounting on the ceiling. Very easy.

All you need is a hole in the drywall the size of the speaker and about an inch clearance all around the hole for the speaker-hook-grab-arms to swing out the pull on the inside of the drywall for the secure mount. i.e. can't install upagainst a stud. ---Dale

I would question how stable the lift would be at that height. I used mine on a standard 8 foot ceiling without any help from anyone. Sorry, I can't be of more help.

We mounted into drywall. But I also used anchors rated for 60#. Works well.

at least 2 feet above door or better 10 feet from the floor to the mounting bracket!

The lift can be used to as a ceiling mount for a very light television; however, it must be secured to the ceiling joists to ensure that it and your television does not fall out of place. Use heavy-duty lag bolts.

I mounted mine on the wall above my garage with extra 2x4s behind the wall for support using the Spalding 316 U-Turn Lift System Bracket. The system "says" it can be used for a roof mount, but I'm not sure.

I made a 3/8" plywood plate and mounted that to the wall. Then muunted the unit to it. Without a plate I would use toggles to mount it to plain drywall.

Mine is installed using only drywall anchors (100 lb), but I have my TV mounted to the wall above the unit, not standing on the unit. So the anchors only have to hold up the unit itself, and the devices I put on it. No issues so far.

Online manual lists lifting height as 117" (9.75'). I don't think it has a long enough cable for 14' ceilings.

It will install on drywall with the proper mounting screws and drywall anchors . Just go to the hardware store and tell them what your doing and they will get you what you need .

highly doubt it, I have a 24' aluminum ext ladder on this and it is plenty sturdy. the bracket mounts to the ceiling, so I don't even know how that one would work.. if you are looking to beef up the lift just make sure you are using stout enough mounting screws and fender washers. The pulley end of the system seems lighter duty than the hook/bracket end. Just make sure to pick a spot in your ceiling to mount this to where you can come straight at it with the ladder. I put mine next to the garage door opener, using up some of the lost space above the garage door..

I have mine mounted to the wall in the garage and it is about 2 feet (24") off the ground.

The key is attaching to studs! That will limit your options for location, but it should make it very secure. I would be cautious using anything that goes between studs since drywall or even lath would not be as strong. I doubt a 200 lb pull would immediately pull through then, but it would begin to shift. If the 'required' location is not lined up with a stud, put 2x4 attachment "studs" behind the wall where you choose to attach them. Of course then you will have to cut out some drywall and later replace it. By the way, I thought it was rated for 300 lb.

The Metaltech Single Lift can be stacked as high as you want to go. Once they are stacked you will need the diagonal brace and the outriggers. If you reach 15 feet or higher you will also need the wall anchoring that should be placed every 15 feet.

Don't expect it to work out of the box. If your wall slopes away from the floor at 45 deg, you might try fashioning a sort of triangular adaptor plate out of some heavy lumber to bring the 45 back up to 90 so you can mount the Cheetah on that.

I mounted mine to drywall using a 100lb wall anchor. Bit of overkill but never have to worry about something going wrong. A stud would work perfect as well. The rubber feet work great to make a nice secure and sturdy base against the wall.
