Great Lakes Lift, a Family Company

Here for you yesterday, today, and tomorrow.


Great Lakes Lift and Dock is a family-owned business established in 1974 and proudly based in Caro, Michigan. As a manufacturer of high-quality aluminum boat lifts, docks, and waterfront equipment, we design and produce durable marine systems built to perform on lakes and waterways for years to come.

Quality, safety, and integrity are central to the core values of Great Lakes Lift and Dock. Using premium materials and proven manufacturing techniques, our team builds products designed to outlast the competition while keeping boats safe and secure. We’ve also pioneered ADA-UA or Universally Accessible dock products used for parks and recreation access. As proud Michigan manufacturers with more than 50 years of experience in the marine industry, we remain committed to craftsmanship and reliability in every product we build.

Knowledgeable dealers are an integral part of the Great Lakes Lift and Dock network. Over the decades, we have developed and supported an experienced dealer base that distributes our products and helps waterfront property owners choose the boat hoists and dock systems best suited to their needs.

If quality assurance from a company with deep roots and proven longevity in the marine industry is what you are looking for, look no further.

When you want the most robust dock and lift, go with experienced manufacturers.
