Lift Mate – The Smart Control & Security System for Boat, Cargo, and Elevator Lifts

 

Take full control of your lift with Lift Mate, the ultimate smart device designed to bring convenience, security, and peace of mind to your boat, cradle, elevator, and cargo lifts. With Lift Mate, you can monitor and operate your lift directly from your smartphone—no matter where you are.

Smart Connectivity from Anywhere

Lift Mate connects your lift in three different ways:

• Bluetooth: Control your lift even when Wi-Fi or the Internet isn’t available at your dock.
• Wi-Fi: Operate your lift through a direct connection between your device and home network.
• Internet: Access and manage your lift remotely from anywhere in the world using cellular data.

No matter the setup, Lift Mate ensures reliable performance whether you’re at the dock, at home, or away on vacation.

Secure Access and Easy Sharing

Lift Mate makes it simple to share lift access safely. You can instantly share encrypted access keys with family, friends, or Airbnb guests via QR code or text message. Control who can use your lift, when they can use it, and for how long—all through the app’s access scheduling feature.

Unmatched Security

With 256-bit end-to-end encryption, your access keys are stored securely on your smartphone—not in the cloud—ensuring complete privacy. Lift Mate also sends real-time notifications whenever your lift moves, and the activity log keeps a full history of operations.

Its Storage Position Security Feature instantly alerts you when your lift moves off its preset position, acting as a powerful anti-theft safeguard.

Live Video Monitoring

For an added layer of protection, Lift Mate integrates with a Foscam IP66-rated 4MP outdoor night-vision camera. This lets you view a live video feed of your lift directly within the Lift Mate app—so you can keep an eye on your property anytime.

Smart Features for Every Owner

• Manage multiple lifts at multiple locations in one app—ideal for marinas, waterfront homes, or dual boat and jet ski setups.
• Works seamlessly with Apple and Android devices.
• Compatible with major lift controller brands, including GEM, TEC, and Hi-Tide (Piranha).
• Easy installation with detailed instructions and optional accessories.

No Wi-Fi? No Problem!

Even if your dock is far from your home network, Lift Mate’s USB Cellular Hot Spot keeps your system connected, allowing you to enjoy all the smart features anywhere.

The Story Behind Lift Mate

Founded by Mike Josowitz, a passionate boater in the Florida Keys, Lift Mate was born from a need for speed, safety, and simplicity. Tired of waiting for his lift to lower after long days on the water, Mike created a smarter way to prepare his lift in advance. Today, Lift Mate helps countless boat owners enjoy faster, safer, and more secure lift control right from their phones.
