Ensuring Lift Safety, Compliance, and Performance Through Certified Inspections

At WECO, safety isn’t an afterthought — it’s a standard. That’s why Gary and his dedicated service team have committed to the rigorous standards set forth by the Automotive Lift Institute (ALI), with most of our technicians certified to perform lift inspections. Our investment in ALI certification reflects our belief that lift inspections are not just about compliance — they're about confidence, protection, and performance.

Here are three powerful reasons why WECO focuses on thorough, ALI-compliant inspections:


1. Equipment Safety = Worker Safety
Lifts are among the most critical — and potentially dangerous — tools in any automotive facility. A minor failure could lead to catastrophic injury or damage. ALI-certified inspections help detect wear, misalignment, or malfunction before they become liabilities. By staying ahead of problems, we protect your technicians and ensure every lift performs reliably.


2. Regulatory Compliance & Liability Protection
Regular ALI inspections help you stay compliant with OSHA and other safety standards. Beyond ticking boxes, this means reduced legal exposure and insurance risks. ALI documentation provides a clear record of due diligence, giving shop owners peace of mind and a strong defense in the event of an audit or accident investigation.


3. Long-Term Equipment Performance
Certified inspections don’t just catch failures — they help prevent them. Properly inspected lifts last longer, work better, and reduce costly downtime. By ensuring every lift operates at peak condition, we help you protect your investment and streamline your workflow.
