Troy DPH11 Professional Series 11-Foot Drywall & Panel Lift Hoist
Our Troy drywall lift is made from an all welded steel construction, tool-free assembly and teardown, single stage winch with brake, and can be used by one person. It has a 11-foot maximum reach for horizontal ceilings and a 15-foot maximum reach for walls (determined by the 11-foot max lift and half the length of drywall). It can hold a 4-by-16-foot single sheet capacity, with a 150 lbs load rating, has 5-inch casters, and weighs 110lbs. MaxTool also backs up this lift with a Two Year Warranty for parts or factory defects.
Troy DPH11 Professional Series 11-Foot Drywall & Panel Lift Hoist Reviews
I have hung my fair share of drywall and over the years have used several different models of hoists, most of them MUCH more expensive than this one and none of them do the job any better. Most recently I spent $[...]/day renting a hoist that was on its last legs and decided to just buy one. After doing the research, I couldn’t justify spending 10 times (or more) than I spent on this one. I figured I’d give it a shot and if it turned out to be a piece of crap I’d chalk it up to a lesson learned. The hoist arrived on time and like many of the other reviews I’ve read, looking like it had been shipped to Iraq and back, given the appearance of the packaging. I don’t know if it is the weight or what, but the box was literally falling apart around the hoist. The hoist itself, however, was undamaged. I put it together in about three minutes using a flathead screwdriver one time and got down to business. The hoist works as well as any other hoist, even the high dollar ones. I laugh when I think about people spending $[...] for a lift that isn’t any better than this one. Save yourself a ton of money and just get this one…
This product was everything and more than advertised. I am finishing a shop and needed to reach 8 foot ceilings as well as 14 foot. This product provides great options for both. It is simple to get the lift positioned for any part of the ceiling and the lift holds the rock tight against the stringers. I was equally impressed with the performance on the wall. I used it for all rock that was above the first course. Just push it over to the wall on the hooks, tip the rock over against the studs and raise into position. Push the base in and the rock is tight and in place, ready for screws. My shop is 30 x 40 with an upper deck and I am doing it by myself. This machine has been simple, effective and a true life saver.
