Our Commitment to Quality, Innovation, and Customer Support

My wife, Patti, and I built PowerLift’s reputation on a steadfast commitment to innovation, quality, and exceptional customer service.

I launched my first welding shop in Lake Benton, Minnesota, in 1988 and, by 1992, pioneered North America’s first production line of hydraulic doors. PowerLift quickly became the gold standard in the aviation, agriculture, commercial, and architectural door industries. As demand grew across North America, we expanded our production facilities to meet the need.

We soon recognized that delivering personalized manufacturing, installation, and ongoing support from a single location wasn’t feasible. This insight led us to develop our unique business model, fueling rapid expansion.

By partnering with skilled steel fabricators who share our dedication to quality and customer satisfaction, we transformed PowerLift from a single facility into a network of over 50 manufacturing and service centers across North America.

Our approach ensures that every PowerLift customer benefits from single-source accountability, local fabrication, seamless delivery, expert installation, and dedicated support. Whether for a new build or a retrofit project, you’ll experience the unmatched durability of our all-welded designs and our unwavering commitment to service excellence.

Sincerely,
Rick and Patti Peterson
