Autograff Motor Works
Salt Lake City, Utah



In business since 1996, this independent shop was named "Best Automobile Repair" in Utah in 2005 by the City Weekly Magazine. Creating an efficient shop in this historic building with limited work space was challenging, but additional equipment and productivity has been added over the years.
(Below) With its successful business model, Autograff has outlived several lift manufacturers, but has remained a loyal customer. Pictured here is a cross-section of 2-post lift models owned.

Ogden High School

The school district consolidated its auto shop programs and asked us to move all equipment from Ben Lomond High to Ogden High School. Half the re-allocated space became a mechanical shop, with the other area devoted to body and paint classes.
(Below) We added Goff's hanging curtain walls on both sides of the windowed instructors' office to divide the two shop areas.
