Mortuary Scissor Lift — Manual Hydraulic HD Lift | HD-1000-M

The American Mortuary Manual Hydraulic HD Scissor Lift is built to last. It's constructed from welded steel framing, heavy-duty chromed rolling bars, and an industrial-strength hydraulic pump cylinder capable of lifting over 1,000 lbs. The hydraulic cylinder raises and lowers the lift through a simple foot-pump mechanism — no battery, no charging, no downtime.

Engineered specifically for crematory, mortuary, and funeral home environments, this double scissor lift transitions from a low loading height of 20.5" to a top load height of 80"+, making it ideal for transferring remains to and from coolers, retorts, prep tables, and storage racks. The multi-directional top surface accommodates both bariatric and standard-sized trays, caskets, and cremation boxes, and supports both side-load and end-load workflows.

Maneuvering is effortless on high-impact casters with wheel locks. As standard, the HD-1000-M ships with 2 swivel casters on the back and 2 rigid (non-swivel) casters on the front for stable, controlled transport. A range of caster and handling upgrades is available to match your facility's layout.

A manual alternative to a powered or battery scissor lift, the HD-1000-M delivers heavy-duty performance with mechanical reliability — and it's proudly made in the USA.

Available options: 2 front swivel casters, 2 front swivel casters with lock-straight option, a 12" extended handle, and an LCD digital weight scale (model HD-1000-M-WS).
