You could even modify a garage door opener to raise and lower the platform. If all 4 cables are tied into the same system, it would insure that the platform would raise and lower evenly. Most openers should allow you to set the "down" position to also insure that your layout stops at the same height each time. Newer openers with the belt drive system are quieter and don't "jerk" as much as the older systems.
