Benefits of Regular Lift Maintenance

A well-maintained lift decreases the need for lift repair and complies with lifting equipment regulations, compulsory for your building or business.

As a lift owner, it’s important to do preventative maintenance and servicing of your lifting equipment. Preventative lift maintenance helps ensure that your lifts are legally compliant and that your business won’t have any problems with the law or service calls due to lift malfunctions.

All lifts used for work activities must undergo frequent, thorough inspections by a certified individual, as per LOLER.

When working with an experienced team that performs routine inspections and follows through with all lifting equipment regulations, you will safely avoid costly repairs and ensure efficient operations without breakdowns.

Whether your organisation operates passenger lifts in residential buildings, accessibility and platform lifts in commercial settings, or goods lifts in a manufacturing plant, you must be able to demonstrate that you are conducting routine lift inspections and acting on any findings that are brought up during these inspections to ensure the safety of your users.

What does lift maintenance include?

In order to limit risks, routine and preventative maintenance typically entails replacing old or damaged parts, topping off fluid levels, and making routine adjustments. A thorough lift engineering examination can help to improve routine maintenance by verifying that it is being carried out correctly. Here’s the basics of what we do:

  • Examining the elevator installation.
  • Clean-up, lubrication, adjustment, and functional testing of the lift installation’s suspension and guide rails.
  • Pulling assembly inspection and lubrication.
  • Examining and modifying the elevators stopping accuracy.
  • Checking the switching, control, monitoring, and other safety equipment visually and functionally.
  • Examining the lift installation to look for damage and functioning issues.

Lift Maintenance FAQs

How often should a passenger lift be serviced?

Any passenger lifts that carry people legally need to undergo an inspection at least every six months, whether it is a passenger lift or a hybrid passenger and good lift.  The type of lift must be inspected at least once every 12 months if it is simply used to transport items, such as vehicle lifts or dumbwaiters. However, we advise conducting more frequent inspections with your lift service provider to guarantee that the elevators with which we have maintenance agreements stay in compliance at all times. In addition to ensuring that your lifts are never out of commission owing to a postponed inspection, more frequent lift inspection and maintenance visits from our expert lift engineers also greatly reduce the likelihood of maintenance problems or breakdowns. ILastly, there are some specific rules when it comes to commercial lift maintenance.

What's the difference between lift inspections vs. lift maintenance?

Lift examinations or inspections are a crucial component of overall lift maintenance contracts because they let us spot potential risks before they become problems. Your lift engineer will search for any lift components that are or could end up being unsafe during inspections.

Any faults discovered during routine lift inspections are reported to you, the local government, and the health and safety executive to ensure that corrective action is taken. A thorough lift maintenance plan should include both detailed inspections and lift maintenance or repair visits, which are typically conducted independently.

Although there are some parallels between thorough examination and preventive maintenance, it is crucial to make this distinction. A lift inspection is an example of a service that is performed as part of preventive maintenance.

Do lifts have to be serviced regularly?

Regular maintenance and service help to lower the likelihood of future problems, including breakdowns and major safety-related difficulties. Failing to maintain your elevator might even result in passenger injuries or fatalities, an altogether inconceivable but potentially very real consequence.

If you’re an employer that provides lift equipment for employees to utilise at work, you must abide by certain laws and guidelines to ensure that regular inspections, lift servicing, and repairs are done to ensure the safety of your lift.

How to save on lift repairs?

It’s rather easy to save on repairs, if you have regular maintenance chcks and keep up with regulatory revisions. If you want to know more on the subject of reducing maintenance costs, we have a guide where we look at the options.
