    Lift Maintenance FAQs

    Your lift should be regularly serviced to ensure it remains safe and reliable to use.

    Lift owners or duty holders have a specific responsibility to ensure the safety of others, while using the lift. In particular they are responsible for the safe use of the lift, which includes its safe operation, condition (maintenance) and compliance with relevant statutory requirements.

    They may be required to explain to the authorities how these responsibilities have been discharged. This is usually by way of providing evidence of a regular servicing and maintenance regime together with a record of periodic thorough examinations by a competent person (see LOLER examinations).

    This depends on a number of factors including how old it is, how much it’s used and what condition it is in.

    On average, six service visits per annum is adequate for most lifts.

    Our maintenance contracts start from £150 + VAT and can be customised to suit your own requirements.

    We offer a number of different levels of contract cover depending on your own requirements.

    Contact one of our team today to discuss your options. More information can be found here.
