Lifts and lifting appliances

Lifts, Lifting Appliances (ceiling hoists, mobile hoists, platform hoists etc) are all covered under the LOLER Regulations and require testing and servicing at predetermined intervals that vary dependant upon the type of lifting equipment/ appliance being considered. For example passenger lifts must be tested, inspected by the insurer every 6 months and should ideally be serviced monthly.
