How does the Buyback Program work?
If your current data center lift from another manufacturer is not reaching expectations or even worse, putting your operators in danger, you can trade it in for a credit towards a new ServerLIFT® data center lift. Many of our customers tell us about their struggles with their current lifts. Either they are low-quality, inferior, or simply not designed for data center use. The Data Center Lift Buyback Program was designed by ServerLIFT® to provide a unique opportunity for data centers to upgrade to the best, safest, and most efficient lifting solution on the market. How does the program work? Request a quote from our Client Experience Team and include pictures […]

Should I Be Able to Move Our Lift Even With The Stabilizer Brake Engaged?
Customer’s sometimes mistake our data center lift brakes for typical brakes. In reality, our brakes are actually stabilizer brakes. The primary function of the stabilizer brake is to provide device stability when moving equipment side to side on the sliding platform. The stabilizer brake also has a secondary function: preventing movement of the data center lift when raising, lowering, or loading equipment. If the lift moves easily with the stabilizer brakes engaged, please check that both the stabilizer brake rubber boots are installed and that the braking system locks when engaged. If not, contact our Service and Support Team for assistance.
How Long Do The Batteries In My Data Center Lift Typically Last?
On occasion our Client Experience team is asked “How long do your data center lift batteries typically last”? The answer is that under ideal conditions our standard, deep-cycle batteries last three to five years. When maintained according to our instructions, they have been known to last up to a decade. Batteries that are allowed to get very low before being recharged will not last as long and, in some cases, may fail to recharge, necessitating the purchase of a new battery.
How Often Should I Charge My Data Center Lift?
Customers often ask our Client Experience team “How often should I charge my lift”? The answer is that to maximize the life of the battery, we recommend keeping the data center lift plugged in and charging when not in use for extended periods. Keeping it unplugged for extended periods will drain and reduce the capacity of the battery.

We worked with him to place the correct order, but some supply chain delays pushed his order out further than expected. This customer called regularly to track the status of his order. He was completely understanding of our situation. He told us that we are always wonderful to work with and always very supportive. That’s great news to us, because during uncertain times and issues with supply chain delays, we do our very best to […]

ServerLIFT Is Going On A Road Trip
Ok, well maybe not a road trip, but we are flying two of our Service Specialists out to a customer’s site in Kentucky to repair some of their lifts. We’ve been to this customer’s site several times for basic repairs, and we discussed training their staff to perform these types of repairs to save money on service calls.

We take our product very seriously and want to ensure that our customers are educated […]
