Makita Laser Levels
How to Choose a Makita Laser Level
Makita laser levels project level and plumb reference lines for tile, cabinets, framing, and drop ceilings. Nearly all are self-leveling 12V max CXT units. The SK105 cross-line suits small rooms, the SK106 adds four plumb points, the SK209GDZ adds multi-line output, and the SK700 projects 360-degree lines on three planes. The SK103PZ and SK104Z are basic self-leveling cross-line options, and the 18V LXT SKR001Z is a dual slope rotary laser for exterior grade work.
What to Look For
- Line coverage. Cross-line for a single wall. 360-degree 3-plane for full rooms.
- Beam color. Green lasers are easier to see. Red suits darker interiors.
- Plumb points. Transfer points from floor to ceiling for wall and fixture layout.
- Outdoor work. Use the rotary laser or a detector for long outdoor distances.

Makita Laser Levels FAQ
Is a green or red Makita laser better for me?
Green beams appear brighter to the eye, so they work better in lit rooms and over longer distances. Red beams are fine for darker interiors and short runs. Most Makita CXT lasers come in both versions.
What warranty covers Makita laser levels?
Makita's lithium-ion cordless tools, batteries and chargers carry a 3-year limited warranty. Most other Makita products carry a 1-year limited warranty. Service runs through a Makita Factory or Authorized Service Center.
