This HL1200 actuator is purpose-built for hatch lifting, offering a dependable, low-effort solution to raise and secure hatch panels with precision. The 30.48 cm stroke gives you confident clearance without needing a second device, while the extended LOA of 104 cm ensures you have enough reach to clear large hatches. The retracted length of 74 cm keeps the setup compact when the hatch is closed, preserving cabin or deck space when not in use.

Why choose the Lenco HL1200 for your hatch system? Because it’s designed to fit tight spaces while delivering strong, consistent motion. The 12V DC design integrates easily with typical marine electrical systems, and the included HL1200 hatch lifting architecture ensures compatibility with standard mounting patterns and control options. The free-spinning ballscrew at full extension helps protect components from undue stress as the hatch reaches its open position, contributing to longer life and easier maintenance.

Ideal for: boat owners upgrading or replacing aging hatch lifters, marine technicians configuring hatch access on sail or powerboats, and DIY enthusiasts looking to modernize a hatch with a reliable, compact actuator. This unit is particularly well-suited for installations where space is at a premium and smooth, controlled opening is essential for routine operations.

Practical tips to get the most from your HL1200: plan your mounting position to accommodate the 104 cm extended length when fully deployed, ensure a clean, unobstructed stroke path, and pair the actuator with a compatible 12V power source and control switch or relay for simple operation. With the HL1200, you get a purpose-built, value-driven hatch lifting solution that makes every voyage more comfortable and convenient.
