I know a lot of you have researched this and some have one so if you could guide me I would appreciate it.

I have a garage with a 8 1/2 foot ceiling, if I get a lift what is the minimum height I need, there is an attic above the garage I can break into it to make a higher ceiling ... I think I’ll have to get the side garage door opener like FC has, is there a certain brand I should look into to.

Also any idea of what is a decent lift with a small foot print ... I only have a 2 1/4 car garage so I would like the least intrusive one.

I should say the reason for the lift is for storage of another car, not a lift to do work on my car.
