Car Lift Script

Car Lift Script - Professional Garage Vehicle Lift System for FiveM

Enhance your mechanic shops and garages with this realistic car lift system. The Car Lift Script adds functional hydraulic lifts that raise and lower vehicles, creating authentic garage environments for mechanic roleplay. Perfect for auto shops, tuning garages, and vehicle service locations, this script brings professional garage equipment to your FiveM server.

What's Included

The Car Lift Script provides a complete vehicle lift system for garages. You'll get functional hydraulic lifts that raise and lower vehicles realistically, multiple lift locations configurable anywhere on the map, control systems allowing players to operate lifts (raise, lower, stop), vehicle positioning that places cars correctly on the lift platform, animations and sound effects for authentic hydraulic operation, safety features preventing lift operation with players underneath, job restrictions to limit lift access to mechanics or authorized players, integration with ESX, QBCore, or standalone frameworks, and configurable lift models and styles to match your garage aesthetic. The system transforms static garage spaces into dynamic working environments.

Perfect For

• Mechanic shops and auto repair businesses
• Vehicle tuning and customization garages
• Law enforcement impound and evidence facilities
• Race team garages and pit areas
• Luxury car showrooms with service departments
• Servers wanting realistic garage environments

How It Works

Players drive a vehicle onto the lift platform or push it into position. They approach the lift control panel and interact to access controls. Options include Raise Lift, Lower Lift, and Stop. Selecting Raise Lift activates hydraulics, smoothly elevating the vehicle to working height. Mechanics can now walk underneath to access the undercarriage for repairs, inspections, or modifications. When finished, selecting Lower Lift returns the vehicle to ground level. The player can then drive it off or continue with other services. The realistic operation creates immersive garage roleplay beyond simple repair menus.

Technical Details

• Framework: ESX, QBCore, or standalone compatibility
• Models: Uses existing garage lift props or custom models
• Performance: Optimized animation and positioning
• Configuration: Simple config for locations and job restrictions
• Dependencies: Minimal, mostly standalone operation

Installation

1. Download and extract Car Lift Script files
2. Configure lift locations in config.lua (coordinates and headings)
3. Set job restrictions if desired (mechanics only, or open to all)
4. Choose framework integration (ESX, QBCore, or standalone)
5. Optional: Customize lift models or styles
6. Add to server.cfg and restart your server
7. Visit configured locations to test lift operation

Mechanic Shop Integration

Car lifts transform basic mechanic shops into professional garages. Place lifts in mechanic MLOs to create authentic service bays. Restrict access so only employed mechanics can operate lifts, creating job-gated functionality. Use lifts as part of repair roleplay - mechanics must lift vehicles to access engines or undercarriages. Combine with vehicle repair scripts where certain fixes require the car to be lifted. The lifts add visual authenticity and functional gameplay to mechanic operations.

Framework Compatibility

• ✅ ESX - Job restriction integration with ESX job system
• ✅ QBCore - Compatible with QB job and business systems
• ✅ Standalone - Works without framework using native controls

Configuration Options

The config file controls all lift aspects. Define lift locations with coordinates and rotation angles. Set job requirements - restrict to mechanic job or allow public access. Configure lift heights (how high vehicles raise). Adjust animation speeds for realism versus convenience. Set interaction distances (how close players must be to use controls). Choose lift models if multiple options exist. Create multiple lift configurations for different garage locations with unique settings. The flexibility adapts to any garage setup.

What Makes It Stand Out

Car Lift Script adds detail that most servers overlook. While many have mechanic jobs, few include actual garage equipment beyond repair menus. Functional lifts create visual interest and immersive environments. The realistic operation - driving on, raising, working underneath, lowering, driving off - feels authentic compared to teleporting vehicles or instant repairs. Safety features prevent abuse or accidents. With 89+ sales, this script has proven popular with servers wanting professional garage atmospheres.

Roleplay Applications

Use car lifts for various scenarios beyond basic repairs. Conduct vehicle inspections where mechanics check underbody damage. Perform illegal modifications in underground tuning garages. Police evidence technicians use lifts to examine vehicles for contraband or evidence. Race teams lift vehicles between events for maintenance checks. Luxury dealerships use lifts in service departments for high-end car care. The equipment supports any scenario requiring underneath vehicle access.

Multiple Lift Locations

Configure lifts at various locations across the map. Place two lifts at the main mechanic shop for multiple simultaneous jobs. Add a lift to police impound for vehicle processing. Install lifts in gang garages for custom vehicle work. Put lifts in luxury dealership service centers. Create mobile pit stops for racing events. Each location can have different access rules - public shop lifts available to all mechanics, private gang garage lifts restricted to members.

Business and Economy Integration

Charge for lift access as part of mechanic services. Business owners might rent garage bays with lifts to mechanics, creating revenue. Lifts become valuable assets in property value - garages with lifts worth more than basic parking. Require lifts for certain repair jobs, making equipped garages more valuable. Create certification systems where mechanics must be trained/licensed to operate lifts. The equipment integrates into economic and business systems beyond simple props.

Safety and Realism

The script includes safety features preventing unrealistic scenarios. Lifts won't raise if a player stands directly underneath (preventing crushing). Vehicles must be properly positioned on the platform (won't lift from incorrect placement). Lifts can't raise vehicles that are too large or too small for the platform. Emergency stop functions halt operation if something goes wrong. These features maintain realism and prevent trolling or accidents that break immersion.

Customization and Styling

Match lifts to your garage aesthetic. Some garages use modern hydraulic two-post lifts. Others prefer classic four-post drive-on lifts. Underground tuning shops might use low-profile lifts. Police facilities could have heavy-duty lifts for large vehicles. If the script supports multiple models, configure different styles for different locations. This visual variety ensures lifts fit each unique garage environment.

Performance Considerations

Lift animations are optimized to prevent lag or frame drops. The system only activates when players are nearby, conserving resources. Vehicle positioning uses efficient calculations. Multiple lifts operating simultaneously won't cause performance issues. This makes it safe to install lifts at numerous locations without worrying about server impact.
