EQUIPMENT AND MATERIALS LIST
EQUIPMENT FOR ATTIC LIFT
Mechanical Parts
1 - Partsam 880 lbs Lift Electric Hoist Crane Remote Control Power System, Zinc-Plated Steel Wire Overhead Crane Garage Ceiling Pulley Winch w/Straps (w/Emergency Stop Switch)
VERY IMPORTANT: Note: This hoist has a slightly larger shaft. It requires an 18mm socket.
(I used the Harbor Freight Pittsburgh Automotive 440lb version, but would recommend this Partsam 880lb because the company has an option for a wireless remote and it also has high Amazon ratings)

You will need 4 long bolts to attach the hoist motor housing to your beam, but I am unsure what size it was. I took one of the original small bolts with me to the hardware store to match up. I just recall it was an odd metric.
1 - 5/8 inch impact socket to weld to the Torsion Spring Shaft
If you use the Partsam 880 lbs Lift Electric Hoist VERY IMPORTANT: Note: This hoist has a slightly larger shaft. It requires an 18mm socket.
1 Set - Vestil D-CNVR-250 Dolly Converter, 250 lbs Capacity, 12" Width x 37" Height

Garage Door Parts- I recommend you speak with your local Overhead Garage Dealer. They should be able to provide you commercial parts for this
1 - Steel Torsion Spring Shaft
3 - Bearing Plates
2 - Cable Drums
2 - Cables (according to the length you need) Just make sure the cable drum can accomodate your length.
2- Universal Clevis Pins, 3/16 x 2 (for safety measure) Is inserted through cable drum and torsion shaft
2- Hitch pins for Clevis pins
MATERIALS FOR ATTIC LIFT PLATFORM and BEAM-
Not counting assorted screws, glue, paint and your choice of laminate for the top.
2- 4x8 sheets of birch plywood (cut according to needs)
My attic lift was designed for a 22"x67" opening and this was enough for the lift and for the shelf in the attic.
8- 2x4x8 - This was enough for the lift platform and frame in the attic to hold the beam
3- 2x6x8 - For the laminated beam and the attic shelving
3- 2 packs of springs for the lift platform base board- Prime-Line Products SP 9617 Extension Spring with 0.105-Inch Diameter, 3/4-Inch x 2-5/8-Inch,(Pack of 2) These are the stronger version that I added 4 of. I believe 6 of this type would work better that the 6 I originally used.

I originally used 6 of the 5/8-Inch by 2-1/2-Inch - .072 Diameter, then added 4 of the above because they weren't strong enough.
6 - Bolts to attach Dolly Converter handles to platform - (6 Sets) 3/8-16x2-1/2" Stainless Steel Hex Head Screws Bolts, Nuts, Flat & Lock Washers, 18-8 (304) S/S, Fully Threaded by Bolt
