   If placed above ground, the space occupied by the rod housings is unusable. Gagnon's actuator eliminates caissons and reduces the volume of unusable space below the platform of the lift. Another significant issue with hydraulic lifts is platform drift, the tendency of a platform to lower due to depressurization of the hydraulic system over time.
