    Good Morning,

    You may want to look at some of the commercial router lift kits and DIY alternatives. Clever people out there. The idea is to support the lift on both sides squarely so that there is no binding. Then you can use a screw and nut with a motor and limit switches. Automatic window lift drive from a car??
